All these people arrive at 'PLOT-No.5'

Later Nikkie's body with Rahul's photograph in her hand-bag is found in a cinema hall by Inspector Khan. The questioning of Rahul leads Khan to Mr. Verma. His suspicions increase on overhearing Rahul accuse his woman-hating father of having committed the murder. Verma leads Khan to Dr. Kapoor and subsequently to Sanjay and Ajay.
