This book is a gripping collection of real crime stories based on incidents that occurred over the past 50 years. It features both high-profile cases that shook the nation and lesser-known crimes that unfolded in ordinary neighbourhoods. Covering a wide spectrum-murder, rape, fraud, cybercrime, honeytraps, encounters and more-the stories delve into the events, investigations, trials and verdicts (or the lack thereof).
Many cases highlight lapses in the justice system, including acquittals due to weak chargesheets or insufficient evidence. The rise in divorces, live-in relationships, and marital discord is examined as a backdrop to increasing cases of domestic violence, suicides and murders.
Some stories were influenced by media trials, but the author remains objective, presenting facts without bias. Through this powerful compilation, readers are invited to reflect on the complex interplay between society, crime and justice.
