Chapter 11: A
football player became the most wanted.
There is no shortcut to
become rich in life. However, there are numerous examples available in our
society of many promising young people ruining their lives by turning to the
path of crime in the temptation of getting rich in a short way. So, let’s talk about
a person who was an excellent football player in his school days but later on, in
his youth, took on a wrong path in order to get richer shortly and committed
serious crimes one after another. Hence the once promising football player
became the most wanted.
His name was Suko. His
village Dodisara, is a small village in Bhiloda taluka located in the lap of
Aravalli Hills. It is surrounded by hills. As soon as one enters the village,
one can get the sight of a full-sized statue of Birsa Munda. This chowk is also
named as Birsa Munda Chowk. Suka was born here and grew up among the hills. He
was a good football player during his school days. His had a good physique.
He was living an ordinary
life. His parents were farmers. But Suka was very ambitious. He also wanted to
be rich. He wanted to dominate that area. It seemed that it would take years to
achieve his goal, but Suka did not have that much patience. To earn money in a
short way he started a liquor business. More money started to come with less
effort. As the money came, his confidence reached the seven clouds. His dominancy
also started to increase in the surrounding area. If anyone opposed him, he would
beat them in public. Thus, no one dared to complain against him.
Most of the population in
this hilly region of Bhiloda in Aravalli belonged to the tribal community. The residents
of this area who had received school education had high positions in the
administration, but those who were illiterate weren’t able to feed themselves.
They didn't even know what to do to earn. Suka began to lead such ignorant
people. Lack of employment had forced these people to take on illegal jobs to
earn money. Suka became a messiah for such people.
The liquor business is
very easy and straightforward. If had good contacts with the administrators,
large sum of money at less effort could be acquired. A big amount of money
could be earned by preparing eight to ten hooligans. Suka was the mastermind.
He lured other people in need of money to join his illegal business and made his
gang. If a police van passed around the area, his attendants would immediately
inform Suka and he would immediately flee from the spot. His network was so
massive that he could get information about the area in seconds.
His age was about 30 years.
Living in the midst of hills had made his body strong. He had a chiselled body,
a small but stylish moustache, a straight pointed nose, fair complexion, short
but curly hair, a coloured cap, which he used as a mask in the winter and
summer.
Suka had become reinless
and started committing crimes fearlessly. He used to harass the people around
him, but once when the police raided his adda he attacked the police fatally. He
even snatched their rifle and fled away. As if he was not afraid of anyone. Suka’s
gang had become famous even among the police circles. Between the two big hills
of Aravalli was the village of Dodisara. There was only one main road leading
to the village. As the village was surrounded by hills, it was very difficult
to reach the village by other ways. Suka was very familiar with the geography of
the area. He was still in touch with his colleagues. The geographical situation
was such that if any stranger entered the village, he would be informed
immediately. Hence, despite all the efforts made by the police, Suka was
nowhere to be found.
A total of 23 cases were
registered against Suka. In which, serious crimes like two fatal attacks on the
police, abduction of a police service rifle, assault, liquor smuggling and two
murders were registered. He had brutally killed his uncle. Suka, suspecting
that his uncle had his eye on his wife, had killed his uncle by stabbing him in
the chest. However, after settling the case, Suka was acquitted in the court.
His supremacy was so much that if someone filed any case against him, he would
make a settlement with the accused party with money and power and escape from
the hands of the law. This streak of his continued and Suka went on committing
crimes fearlessly and thus, became the most wanted.
Undaunted, Suka brutally
committed another murder. He had suspicion that someone would have practiced
witchcraft on him, causing his business to become very slow and weak. With that
thought, he had killed an occultist. That murder was done in a very brutal
manner. That occultist was caught, brought home, kept hungry and thirsty and was
beaten deadly for two consecutive days. Suka even gave him electric shocks. The
occultist was admitted to the hospital in a very pathetic condition and had died
during treatment. Five accused involved in that murder were nabbed by the
police, but Suka managed to escape.
It had become a very arduous
task to arrest Suka. He had challenged the police. Bhiloda Police along with
LCB, SOG and Special Force were conducting a search operation day and night.
During the investigation they crossed the border of Rajasthan as well as of
Punjab. But Suka was nowhere to be found.
He had a special motorbike that ran at the speed of the wind. He could even
drive it at full speed on hilly roads. And in an instant, he would disappear
into the hills.
Aravalli district police
chief Sanjay Kharat realized the seriousness of this case and devised a plan to
put Suka in jail. A police team was formed in which L.C.B. Pl. C.P. Vaghela, PI
M.G. Vasava, PSI K.M. Sisodia were involved. Suka had two marriages. Even though
he had two wives, he had an affair with a third damsel. One night Suka was
returning after meeting his beloved. The district police got that information. They
nabbed Suka on the spot. Eventually the police succeeded and Suka was caught.
After arresting Suka, the
District Police Chief Sanjay Kharat himself interrogated him. Says Sanjay
Kharat: “There was no sign of remorse on Suka's face after being caught. There
was not even a hint of guilt on his face. His eyes were piercing and
emotionless. His body smelled malodorously as he had not bathed for several
days."
To track down such
criminals the State Government has enacted GUJCTOC (The Gujarat Control of
Terrorism and Organized Crime Act). And due to the implementation of this law,
Suka and 19 of his accomplices are currently in jail. The Aravalli District
Police is applauded for their hard work of sending such a notorious gang and
its leader behind the bars. A heartfelt salute must be given to all the
officers who made this operation a success.
Everyone should always keep
in mind that there is no shortcut to becoming rich and successful. And even if there
is a shortcut it will be short-lived and will only lead to a painful end.
"Shortcuts are always dangerous."
