A Lucky Raid

Amay Pattnaik, senior Income tax officer w

Amay Pattnaik, senior Income tax officer was transferred for the 50th time to Bardhaman in West Bengal. He along with his wife Malini shifted to the Government Quarters. They both started unpacking their boxes. Soon Amay asked,

“Malini are you upset? Is it because we are being transferred for the 50th time?”

“No Amay, I am not. But I am worried about you. Remember what happened last time. You had a close save. I don’t want that something happens like that once again.”

 “Malini don’t worry, it is part of my job.”

Next Day, Amay joined the office, he was welcomed by Mr. Subhash Kundu and Mr. Anirban Das, they both were his junior officers. Amay began his work immediately, soon he was busy in checking the details of the Politicians tax profile. Suddenly his phone rang, he picked up the call

“When are you coming, please be quick, I am waiting for you, Today I have made something special for you.”

“Ok Malini, don’t worry I will come after some time. how can I dare to disobey my Home Minister.” Amay laughed….. 

Suddenly Amay’s eyes fell on the file of defaulters. He saw the name of the famous industrialist Sandipto Sikdar, who was the owner of nearly 1000 crores of property. He had been accused of tax evasion, with a huge amount of Tax of nearly 650 crores. He was shocked to see this.

“Listen Malini, I will call you later. I am hanging up.”

“Listen..Amay….”

The call ended and soon Amay gathered all his colleagues and started to gather information about him. Everyone was stunned, No one was ready to take a risk by going against Sandipto Dada. Most of the team denied any help. Amay was furious, he confronted everyone.

“How can you all be so coward, we all have taken the oath in the name of Bharat Mata, How can you betray your duty. You all are capable. And as a senior officer, it is my order that we will raid Sandipto’s House.

 Soon he deployed his informers gang to get secret information about Sandipto’s tax evasion.

Within a month, enough information and evidence was gathered against Sandipto and thus a raid was planned. This news reached the ears of Sandipto. He laughed, and with a thick Bengali accent said,

“Let him come, what can he do… he will find nothing here.”

Soon the raid team reached the Sandipto’s house. His house was hustling and Bustling, it felt as if there was a function going on. Sandipto was busy drinking wine. Amay went near him and ordered,

“Stop this function right away, Income Tax Department is on a Raid.”

“Mr. Pattnaik, Raid?? Ha Ha… Come come sit.. have a drink… imported from Hungary.”

“Mr Sandipto Sikdar, we are not here to party with you this is a official raid.”

Amay and his team mates started destroying things, they began searching. Bed rooms, Living room, Garden, Backyard and even toilet, they searched everywhere but didn’t find anything. Two days passed on, still they didn’t find anything. Amay was losing his hope. Suddenly he saw something strange in a pilliar, he felt a strange gut that something was hidden in the pillar. Soon he began hitting the pillar in the hammer and after some strokes, he found piles of Gold Bars.

“Mr.Sikdar, see we hit the bull eye.”

More and more wealth were being recovered, calculations were so heavy that even the calculators failed. Amay was delighted to see this. Finally his Raid was successful.

Sandipto was busy watching them, he said to his PA,

“they don’t know how much big fools they are. These are just my pawns, my wazir is still with me, before they get my wazir, that officer will be dragged out of my house, Checkmate!!”

Amay was wandering in the corridor, when he kept his hand on a painting, suddenly the wall slide open and there was a secret passageway.

Amay called all his team and they soon entered the passageway and landed up in a huge underground chamber, there was a makeshift operation theatre, and there was a room which was locked. Amay started to break the lock.

“What is inside this room?.. Mr Das!!... Mr. Kundu!!, please come over here quickly. I need your help in breaking the lock.”

“Yes sir, we are coming.”

Three of them began breaking the lock. With the force of all three of them they were successful in shattering the lock. They broke in.

What they saw inside, gave them a huge shock. They saw nearly hundreds of children unconscious. It didn’t take even a minute to understand what was going on.

Meanwhile, Sandipto got to know about Amay’s discovery of his wrong deeds. He threw his glass on the floor.

“How did he find the secret passage. I can’t take any risk, it would be better to thrown him out of my way. Arup!!.... Go and kill those officers.

“Yes Dada”

Within that time Amay called the Police Headquarter and asked the commissioner for protection , soon a huge force of policemen were on their way to Sandipto’s house. Arup and his men gathered their weapons and marched towards them.

Amay addressed his team, “Listen Everyone, I have called the Police, soon this place will be stormed by the Police, Don’t worry. Nothing will happen to us, Have faith in God.”

Suddenly, someone pulled Amay’s hand. When Amay looked back, he saw a very cute girl. She was nearly of 6 years.

“Papa, Please save me”

Amay was shocked, was craving to listen these golden words from a child’s mouth. Amay without uttering a word hugged her and started crying.

Meanwhile, the Police stormed the Bungalow and arrested Sandipto, there was a lot of firing between the two parties, and finally the Police was successful in killing all the culprits in the encounter and rescued the Income Tax Officers and the Children.

Days passed, Sandipto was sentenced to Life Imprisoment for Organ Trafficking and Child Trafficking all the children were returned to their respective parents except that girl who had addressed Amay ‘Papa’. Soon it was discovered that she was an orphan.

Malini and Amay were married for 8 years, but due to some complications Malini couldn’t conceive. But the girl fulfilled there wish of becoming parents. Amay and Malini adopted her and named her Adya in the honour of ‘Goddess Durga’

“Thank You God, for blessing us with this beautiful daughter. You have full filled my wish to become a parent.

Amay, Malini and Adya shared a warm hug.
