Sunday Date- 28/05/2017 Time- 8:30 P.M

is the laziest day for most of the people. People seldom work Sundays. However certain people have to work even on Sundays such as Hospitals, Police Stations etc. That day was very good with some rain and that night was somewhat gloomy. All the people of the police control room are very tired of their work and want to go home as soon as possible. Then they received a call

“Hello, how can I help you?” said the telephone operator as soon as he answered the phone

“Sir- help me, sir- help me- I was tied with an explosive sir- come and- come and fetch me, sir,” said the caller from another side with a shivering voice

These types of calls are not new for police control rooms. However, the shivering voice alone conveyed something is very wrong”

“Where are you?” said the telephone operator

“I am in an abandoned building in Ramji Ashar road please- please come soon”
