Ramu was a simple farmer living in a small village. His life revolved around working in the fields and feeding his family. Everyone in the village considered him hardworking and honest. He owned a small piece of land where he grew rice and wheat. His wife, Sarita, and their two children—a son and a daughter—were the foundation of his life. But one day, something happened that turned his entire world upside down.One morning, Ramu was working in his field. The sky was clear, and there was a cool breeze in the air. Suddenly, a few villagers came running toward him. Their faces showed fear and panic. They told him that an unknown man was lying dead in the nearby forest. Ramu thought it might not be a big deal—perhaps a passerby who had fallen ill and died. But when he reached the forest with the villagers, he saw a completely different scene.A young boy was lying on the ground. His clothes were torn, and his body bore marks of injuries. Nearby lay a broken stick stained with blood. The villagers immediately called the police. The police arrived and began their investigation. Ramu couldn’t understand what was happening. The police took the body for a postmortem and started questioning people in the village.A few days later, the police returned to the village. This time, they went straight to Ramu’s house. They told him to come with them to the station. Ramu was stunned. He asked, “What have I done?” The police informed him that a knife found near the dead boy had Ramu’s fingerprints on it. Ramu was baffled. He said he didn’t even know the boy, so how could his fingerprints be on the knife? But the police didn’t believe him.Ramu was taken to the station and accused of murder. The news spread like wildfire in the village. No one was ready to believe he could do such a thing. His wife, Sarita, broke down in tears. The children stopped going to school and stayed home. Ramu was sent to jail, and his case went to court. He didn’t have a lawyer to defend him. Some villagers wanted to help, but they didn’t have enough money.In court, the judge reviewed all the evidence. The police claimed there was an old rivalry between Ramu and the boy, though they had no proof. Ramu kept insisting he was innocent, but his voice was drowned out. Finally, the court sentenced him to five years in prison. His family fell apart. The fields turned barren, and the children went hungry.In jail, Ramu wondered why this had happened to him. Was there an old enemy who had framed him? Or was it all a misunderstanding? No one knew the truth. But one thing was certain—Ramu’s life would never be the same again. The villagers still talk about him, but no one stepped forward to help. Time passed, and Ramu’s story remained an unsolved mystery. Ramu was a simple farmer living in a small village.
