The Kerala Police was left baffled after they received an unusual complaint from a 10-year old boy, who approached the Meppayur police station with a handwritten complaint. Abin, a student 5th grade student complained that his bike was under repair at a shop for two months and he was unable to get it back from the repairman. On reading the complaint, the policemen rushed to the shop and ensured that the boy and his brother got back their cycle. In a letter written in Malayalam dated November 25, Abin wrote his grievances on the paper of his school notebook.
Soon Civil Officer Radhika probed into the matter and approached the cycle shop's owner. The mechanic claimed that he was unwell and was caught up with his son's marriage arrangements. However, the officer ensured that the boy gets his cycle immediately which was sucessfully handed over to him in a day after the necessary repairs. Take a look at the translated version of the letter written by Abin on the paper of his school notebook.
'To Meppayyur Station SI
Sir,
Me and my younger brother had given our cycle for repair on September 5th. It hasn't been repaired yet. He took Rs 200 when the cycle was given. But he does not respond to calls often, if he picks up he will say that it will be repaired. If we go to the shop it will remain closed. There isn't anybody else at my home to enquire about this. Sir should intervene and help us get back our cycle.
