Such a heart-wrenching and sensational news is coming out from Nalanda district of Bihar which has created a sensation in the entire area and has brought tears to everyone’s eyes. In the list of love, trust and betrayal, many painful stories of youth losing their lives often come to light, but this time the case is very mysterious and scary. Shivam Kumar, a youth from Nalanda district, died under suspicious circumstances and his body was found floating in a canal passing through a deserted area. A few days before the incident, Shivam had received a call from his alleged girlfriend living in a PG (Paying Guest) in which she had tearfully told him to “come home”, and a few hours later Shivam had mysteriously gone missing. By the time the family and police could search for him, it was too late and his body was pulled out of the water. After this heart-wrenching incident, there is an uproar in the family of the deceased and the parents are in tears, unable to understand what happened to their smiling son that night.
According to the initial investigation and the information given by the family members, the deceased Shivam was in contact with a girl living in a PG or hostel outside the house for some time for studies or other reasons. There is said to be a deep love affair between the two, which was often progressing through long conversations on mobile phones. On the day of the incident, when the girl called him and told him very insistently and tearfully, “Come home immediately, I want to meet you”, Shivam, under her influence or emotions, left for that place. But since then his mobile phone was switched off and there was no trace of him. In today’s PG and hostel culture, which is rapidly spreading in metros and small towns, the extent to which such love affairs sometimes take a dangerous turn can be gauged from this incident. The police is now busy scanning the CDR (Call Detail Record) of that phone call to find out whose real conspiracy was behind that last call and whether the girl had called him as part of some well-planned plan.
When no trace of Shivam was found even after several days of searching, the family lodged a missing report at the police station. When the nearby water sources and canals were searched with the help of police and local divers, Shivam’s body was found floating in the water of a canal a few kilometers away. When the body was taken out, there were many such marks on its body and the circumstances of death were so suspicious that the family termed it as outright murder. The family alleges that their son had no enmity with anyone, but as part of a conspiracy, he was killed by the girl and her associates and later the body was thrown into the canal to dispose of it. The police have taken the body in their custody and sent it to the district hospital for post-mortem, so that through the medical report it can be clear whether Shivam died due to drowning or he was brutally strangled or beaten to death before being thrown in the water.
Considering the seriousness of this much talked about and sensational case, Nalanda Police and the local administration have significantly expanded the scope of investigation. The police have also started questioning by going to the PG or hostel where the girl lived and on whose phone Shivam had left the house. The girlfriend and her close relatives are being continuously interrogated so that the contradictions hidden in their statements can be detected. Police officials say that on the basis of technical surveillance, location tracking and CCTV footage, links are being made as to whom Shivam had met that night and in the presence of which people he reached the canal. In such cases, angles of love triangle, mutual rivalry or blackmailing often come to the fore, and the police is giving a big warning to every youth and hope for justice.
Ultimately, this harrowing story of Shivam of Nalanda is a huge warning and lesson to all of us about how costly decisions taken under the influence of emotions can sometimes be. On one hand, the death of a young son has torn the entire family from within, on the other hand, the horrific endings of such love affairs, which are increasing in the society, are becoming a matter of concern. The victim’s family is now demanding only one thing – that they should get fair justice and their son’s murderers should be brought to justice and given the harshest punishment. The police investigation is now moving towards its final stage, and it will soon be revealed what were the secrets behind that girlfriend saying ‘come home’ and who is the real responsible for Shivam’s death.
