Black Squad - Episode 24: "The Red Mark Killer"
Opening Scene
Location: A Dark Alley in Mumbai – 2:15 AM
Drip. Drip.
Blood trickled from the slit throat of Sanjay Kapoor, a wealthy businessman. His lifeless eyes stared at the flickering streetlight above.
Beside his body, a bloodstained card lay on the wet pavement:
"The sins of the rich must be paid in blood."
The Red Mark Killer had struck again.

Scene 1: Crime Scene Investigation
Location: Marine Drive – 3:00 AM
The Black Squad arrived. A.C.P. Sulaiman Qazi surveyed the crime scene, his expression grim. Inspector Imran Wani crouched beside the body, examining the wound.
> Imran: "Single, clean cut. Precision. The killer knew anatomy."
Forensic Expert Neha Joshi handed a report to Arjun Rathore, who read it aloud.
> Arjun: "No signs of struggle. Victim was caught off guard."
Qazi turned to Sub-Inspector Aditya Malik, the team's tech expert.
> Qazi: "What do we have on this guy?"
Aditya (checking his tablet): "Sanjay Kapoor, 46. Real estate mogul. Multiple fraud allegations but never convicted."
Qazi's jaw tightened.
> Qazi: "So, our killer isn't just picking random victims. He's targeting the corrupt."

Scene 2: Connecting the Dots
Location: Black Squad HQ – 9:00 AM
Imran analyzed past cases. Three murders in the last month. Each victim:
1. A politician involved in land scams.
2. A CEO accused of tax fraud.
3. Now, Sanjay Kapoor.
All had received threats before their deaths.
> Imran: "This guy sees himself as an executioner. A vigilante."
Arjun: "Or a serial killer using justice as an excuse."
Aditya tapped the screen, enlarging an image.
> Aditya: "I traced the bloodstained card from the crime scene. It was custom-made, bought from a small shop in Andheri."
Qazi grabbed his coat.
> Qazi: "Let's pay the shopkeeper a visit."

Scene 3: The First Breakthrough
Location: Card & Gift Shop, Andheri – 10:15 AM
The shopkeeper, Ramesh Kumar, wiped his glasses nervously.
> Ramesh: "Yes… I remember the man who bought those cards. He was odd. Kept mumbling about justice."
Arjun showed a sketch based on CCTV footage.
> Arjun: "Was this him?"
Ramesh (nodding): "Yes. He paid in cash. No name, no phone number."
Imran checked the shop's CCTV. The footage showed a man in a hoodie, face partially hidden.
But as he left, he entered a blue Swift Dzire.
Partial license plate: MH 02 DK…
> Qazi: "We have a lead."

Scene 4: The Hunt Begins
Location: RTO Database – 12:45 PM
Aditya ran the partial plate through the database. Five matches. One name stood out:
Raghav Malhotra – a former forensic expert turned rogue.

Qazi: "Let's bring him in."

Scene 5: The Trap
Location: Raghav's Apartment, Powai – 5:30 PM
The squad staked out his apartment. The lights were on. He was inside.
Qazi signaled. Arjun and Imran moved in.
As they entered, the room was filled with… photos.
Victims' faces pinned on a board.
Red circles around their heads.
A list of upcoming targets.
Then, from the kitchen—
A knife flew through the air!
Imran ducked. Arjun tackled Raghav, pinning him down.
> Raghav (laughing): "You think I'm the only one? There are others. You can't stop what's coming!"

Scene 6: The Interrogation
Location: Black Squad HQ – 9:00 PM
Under the harsh light of the interrogation room, Raghav sat, handcuffed.
> Qazi: "Why are you killing them?"
Raghav (grinning): "Because the system won't."
Imran slid a photo of the next target across the table.
> Imran: "Who is this?"
Raghav (smirking): "He's next. But you won't reach him in time."
Before Qazi could respond—
A phone buzzed.
A new crime scene.
The next target was already dead.
> Qazi (muttering): "It's not just him. There's a whole network."
