Essay on A Dangerous Encounter

Prologue

In the court room full of people, whoever was there only wanted to hear the verdict of one of the most dreaded encounter specialist Raj Kamal Singh. The court went into Session and the judged asked the prosecutor Divyam Singh to make an opening statement.

“Look at that man, this man was entrusted with the security of the people of Mumbai, but he went on taking the advantage of his profound power.

He rampaged many people and encountered and killed many people in the name of service and duty. This person deserves only capital punishment my lord” and with this powerful statement Divyam smirked at the defendant.

The court room exploded with people’s voice and judge took the hammer in his hand to control the situation and asked the defendant to give his opening statement.

As soon as defendant heard the order he jumped on his feet and collected his paper together and went on taking the lead

Anirudh Mukherjee looked at the judge and analysis the facial expression before starting his speech. “My lord, when our constitution entrust someone with the security of our people they also give them the authority to take some stern action in order to maintain peace and harmony within public.

Talking about whether this person who is on stand is guilty or not, we should first ask ourselves whether this person didn’t complete his task with whole honesty and isn’t our streets safe?”

Anirudh looked at the judge once again to see whether his speech made an effect but judge face was blank as a white paper

After listening to both statements given by the attorney, judge called them forward with evidence and then suddenly Raj went back in days when he was still out on the street serving the nation and providing justice.

1999

The one of the darkest period for Mumbai, the bomb had erupted and killed millions of Mumbai people including Raj’s mom and dad. Raj was in Pune taking training to become Police officer.

He was with his friends when he was called in the office only to know that he lost his parents in the serial blast. He was devastated by the news and soon he took the train for Mumbai to present the last ritual. He came back to Pune very early just to complete his training.

Bloodlust

Raj got his position as a sub-inspector in Andheri police station and soon he started developing his name around his people.

He assisted his superiors in many high-profile cases and closed many cases very fast and soon many promotions came his way which eventually made him Inspector.

The news started circulating about the gang war. Two powerful groups of underworld started killing each other in order to retaliate and making a point of being strong.

Things started going out of control and bloodshed filled the street of Mumbai along with the fired bullets and dead body.

This bloodshed came under the attention of the police commissioner of Mumbai and because the area was Andheri the case was to be handled by Raj.

Raj was debriefed about the case and was ordered for immediate results. Raj started his investigation about the group, and he came across Holist and Rebellious two powerful groups of underworlds.

Raj took one year to understand the activities of these two groups and also to mark their meeting point.

The chase

Raj being prepared with his research about the groups he with his assistant Vishal went to the meeting place of Holist and met Ajmal.

Ajmal knowing that Raj is a police officer, he started bribing him to which Raj declined and asked about the rebellious group leader Wasim.

Ajmal declined to be a snitched and insulted Raj and told him to leave. Raj tried to control his anger and left only to visit Wasim.

Wasim was with his children when he saw Raj coming. Wasim “welcome Mr.Raj welcome! Say what can I do for you” to which Raj answered “I am ordered to kill you by the higher authorities in order to stop the gang war but you can stay alive by killing Ajmal.”

After hearing Raj, Wasim wasn’t convinced and asked why you want me to kill him and to be honest I can kill you now…. His sentenced was left incomplete as Raj interjected and said “MUMBAI” “once you kill Ajmal, you can rule Mumbai and become the king. Wasim was not yet convinced and said “let’s make a deal” then Raj left.

At Ajmal house, Ajmal was with his family having lunch when he heard a shot. In the state of shock he went out and saw his man lying down. In the fit of rage he called his men and went to Wasim’s place and started shooting and it killed Wasim’s youngest son in the cross fire.

The news of the shootout went out like a fire and with no option the Police department ordered the encounter specialist to take care of the gang. The encounter specialist with Raj started killing people from underworld.

The mind game

It took three years to kill many small links in the hell of underworld. By now Wasim and Ajmal developed a blood-lust for each other and were always at the lookout for each other with police on the horizon. They always became aware about their surroundings.

Raj once again met Wasim only to tell Ajmal’s Place of hiding. Once Wasim got the address without wasting a moment he went on that place only to find himself surrounded with police, at that instant he knew he was tricked by Raj and then he was shot down by the encounter specialist.

When Ajmal came to know about the death of Wasim he called Raj and said “superb plan sir superb plan. You just killed one of my men and I made my men believe that it was Wasim who killed my man amazing, but I was really amazed by your masterstroke.

Yes, the master stroke-killing Wasim poor little child.” Raj became furious and said “you pig it was you’re doing you killed the child I had nothing to do with the murder of the child” Ajmal started laughing and said who cares now that Wasim is gone I will rule Mumbai” and soon Raj started laughing and said no you won’t you will be killed by me surely you will.

Ajmal gave no importance to Raj word and went inside to get ready for namaz, and he stepped out of his house to go towards his car. He heard a gunshot and everyone became aware and the cross firing started and after 30 mins of deadly fight Ajmal was shot, and he died instantly.

Betrayal

Sarfarz younger brother of Wasim saw Raj in his house, he went inside and hugged Raj and said “finally we achieved what we wanted. I wanted to be the king of Mumbai and you completed your duty.”

Raj went to the Mumbai commissioner’s office, and he presented his report. After reading the report, commissioner started congratulating Raj for his work when they both saw a fanatic peon coming inside the chamber and asking the commissioner to switch on the News and when they saw the news they both were shocked.

It flashed a video which shows Raj killing Wasim’s little child. Commissioner asked Raj for the explanation. Raj couldn’t come up with any explanation which made commissioner to suspend him from his job and ordered other police to take him under arrest.

Back to present

After hearing the whole story judge asked Raj whether he has anything to say in his defence, he said at times we make difficult decision and at times we make decision only to repent but I didn’t kill the kid.

He died in the cross fire. After hearing Raj’s statement, the Judge said he will give his decision next week.

The judgement day

Anirudh was late to appear in the court and Divyam was there already and was asking judge to pass his judgement. When Anirudh did arrive he was asked for the reason of being late and also was ordered to pay the penalty.

Anirudh then asked judge to let him represent his new-found evidence which states that the bullet which was found inside Wasim’s child body differs from the bullet that Raj uses in his gun.

After hearing the new piece of evidence the judge immediately passed his judgement in the favour of the defendant and ordered the police department to hire Raj with honour and respect.

The fall of iron current

Raj entered his office in the police station and asked for his new case. Vishal came with the new case, and he handed over the file to Raj.

Vishal then asked what was the deal between you and Wasim, to which Raj answered to kill a small kid. Vishal in the state of shock what do you mean the child wasn’t his and this also means that you killed the child.

Raj after listening Vishal said that child was a part of Sarfarz child trafficking and by killing one child Wasim forever destroyed the trade as he knew if a police officer on duty shoots the civilian the case will get lot of media attention.

Vishal in frustration asked in a loud voice that means you killed the child to which Raj answered I may have pulled the trigger but it wasn’t my bullet.
