Untitled - Part II

One fine day, the poacher is found missing from the cell. The last time he was seen working out in the gym and no one knew what happened to him after that. The warden knows about the romantic angle involved with the bomber so asks the guards to beat the hell out of him for a confession or any links. He doesn’t talk.

The warden orders for a thorough search of all premises and it comes to their notice that security camera feed for a few dates is missing. The warden, though initially clueless, realizes that those were the clips of his corrupt ways, telephonic conversations and other misgivings. There is no idea as to how the poacher escaped amidst such tight security without leaving a trace. There is nothing on camera anywhere. No holes in the walls or missing guards etc. All water exits too are secured. Amidst this confusion, the secret is revealed in the gym room.

The tread mill is attached with a special mechanism, built using a complex mechanism of gears, dumbbells and other weights, which acts as a giant drill when the machine is operated. It is also revealed that there is a vertical tunnel to the sewer around 10-15 feet in depth. That was how the poacher escaped.

The warden is then arrested following an ‘Aaj Tak’ expose about malpractices in the prison. The tapes were delivered to their office via an unnamed packet.

In a year or so, the bomber is up for parole and is granted freedom thanks to his good behavior. He then goes to his home. But surprisingly bids adieu to his sister and says that he is going to make the final journey of his life. She suspects he is turning into a suicide bomber or something.

He boards a plane for Colombia.

Comments, Suggestions for Improvement, Brickbats welcome. Your contributions can only make it better. A title suggestion would also help me. I think we've a killer of a story idea. It's a potential academy award winner. It's a prison story. It's got romance, suspense, comedy, action everything!

BTW I’ve an idea for the names the two protagonists… How about Munna and Prem?
