Neha Sambangi, Age 14

Nadia’s Murder

One night in India, the police were coming back from arresting criminals and in front of the station lies a dead body. ACP Sara is in charge of the police station and is shocked that somebody was killed brutally

“Call forensics and check for any belongings.” says ACP Sara

“Ok, Mam!” answers Jeevan

“I am going to catch this guy!” she says

The next day, Sara gets information that the body 23-year-old girl Nadia’s. She starts her enquiry with her friends. She is informed that Nadia went out with Roshni and Aarav. They said that at the party, she was very tensed. They witnessed her getting into a car.

“Mam, this murder could have been between the age of 25-26. She killed Nadia and threw her in front of the police station to get your attention.” says the forensics leader Saina.  

Suddenly, Sara gets a call that Aarav was found dead. Roshni was at his house for dinner and she saw someone try to grab Aarav and ran away. Roshni says that she can identify the person’s features. Sara calls in a sketcher.

“She was tall, with long hair. Her eyes were very bright and she wore a shirt and pant.” say Roshni. 

With the sketch, Sara and her team were able to identify 3 girls in the area which match the features. After going to 2 girls houses and confirming that they are not the murders, the 3rd girls house is locked. After listening, Sara feels that there is someone hiding and she breaks the door open

. “Come out! Tell me the truth, I know you are hiding from me.” Sara says as she grabs the girl.

“My name is Varsha, I was told that if I bring a white Audi car to pick up someone, I will get $5,000.”

As Sara begins to leave, Varsha holds her hand and says... “Mam, I remember over the phone hearing the name Roshni being called by someone else.”

Sara becomes suspicious that Roshni tried to kill Nadia. Her doubt was confirmed when the forensics lab calls her saying the Roshni’s fingerprints were found on Aarav’s jacket. Sara goes to arrest Roshni.

“I killed Nadia, that girl has ruined my family's life.” Roshni said. 

She begins to narrate her story of how her sister Janhavi got married to a man Nikhil and Nadia ruined the marriage by creating miscommunications between them after they got married. Janhavi committed suicide and Nadia married Nikhil and got the properties because Janhavi gave them to Nikhil to put in the bank.

“I gave her a brutal death and that is what she deserves.” said Roshni. 

Sara arrested Roshni and she was sentenced 5 years to prison. Sara meets Nikhil and learns that he knew the truth, but his mom had cancer and was very happy with his marriage to Nadia. They go to Janhavi's grave and pray for her.
