So many people saw a man killing his wife. Despite of this, no one is able to accuse him of the murder and send him behind the bars.
Why?
This is because that man is a hangman and his wife has been apparently sentenced to death. So he had to kill her.
A person is found murdered in his office. When the crime scene is investigated, the police finds out that there is a calendar on which the victim has written a few numbers with his blood. The numbers are 4, 11, 11 and 4.
There are four suspects of the murder, Paul, Nina, Anna and Lee. Can you find out who is the murderer?
Anna
The numbers written on the calendar actually represents the months in the calendar whose initial letter represents the name of the killer.
4 – April (A)
11 – November (N)
11 – November (N)
4 – April (A)
Thus the killer is Anna.
A man is surviving on an island along with his friend. They have been starving from four days for food. Suddenly, they find a fisherman. The friend goes with the fisherman in order to catch the fish (if they can find any).
The fisherman returns after some time but he is alone and have some salmon that he had prepared. When asked, the fisherman tells him that his best friend fell off the boat and drowned in the water. Starving for so long, he eats the meal while crying for his friend.
After being rescued, he goes to a diner and orders salmon. When he eats his meal, he jumps commit suicide. Why did he do it?
After tasting the salmon, he realized that what he ate on the island was not salmon but probably the flesh of his best friend.
A man plots the murder of his wife. His plan is full proof. Nobody saw them leaving their house. He stabbed her with a knife while driving. She died on the spot. He threw her body in a valley. He threw the knife carefully wiping his finger prints on a random garbage bin. Then he went back to his home and no one was watching him this time as well.
After an hour, he was called by the local police department who informed him that his wife was murdered. They asked him to reach the scene of crime immediately. But as soon as he arrived at the crime scene, he was arrested by them.
How did the police know that he himself is the murderer?
It is clear that the police never told him where the crime scene was. But still he reached the correct place. It means that he knew about the crime and he himself is the murderer.
A dead body is found at the bottom of a multistory building. Seeing the position of the body it is evident that the person jumped off from one of the floor for attempting suicide.
A homicide detective is called to look after the case. He goes to the first floor and walks in the room facing the direction in which the body was found. He opens the window in that direction and flips a coin towards the floor.
The he goes to the second floor and repeats the process. He keeps on doing it till the last floor. Then, when he climbs down, he tells the team that it is a murder not suicide.
How did he come to know that it was a murder?
At each floor, he did the same task of opening the window and flipping the coin. If it was a suicide, then at least the window at any of the floor must have been left open by the person who jumped off. The present situation only suggests that someone pushed him off and then closed the window again.
Alpha, Beta and Gamma are in a desert. Alpha doesn't like Gamma and hence decides to murder him. He poisons the water supply of Gamma. Since it is the desert area, Gamma must drink or he will die of thirst.
Beta does not know of the actions of Alpha and also decides to murder Gamma. To succeed in his ill motives, he removes the water supply of Gamma so he dies of thirst.
Gamma dies due to thirst. Who murdered Gamma?
The answer to this question might sound more of a philosophical one.
It is Beta whose action led to Gamma's death directly. It was the scarcity of water that led to his death ultimately. It may be the circumstances prevailing his demise and not a specific person who killed him.
A couple went on for a climbing trip. But only the husband returned from the vacation and said that his wife slipped off while climbing and died. On investigating, the local sheriff arrested him saying, 'Your travel agent called. You murdered your wife.'
The man did not inform anyone about the trip. Then how did the agent was so sure that it is a murder?
The man bought only one way ticket for his wife whereas he bought two way ticket for himself. It means that he was sure that he will be returning alone.
A man doing his regular job accidentally tears his suit. He dies after three minutes.
Why?
The possible situation can be that the man is a Deep Sea Diver. They wear a pressurized suit for diving. If the suit tears down somehow, the breathing apparatus can keep the person alive till the body can handle the intense water pressure.
During a secret mission, an agent gave the following code to the higher authorities
AIM DUE OAT TIE MOD
However the information is in one word only and the rest are fake. To assist the authorities in understanding better, he also sent them a clue – If I tell you any one character of the code, you can easily find out the number of vowels in the code word.
Can you find out the code word?
The code word is TIE.
Suppose if you are told a character of MOD, then you can’t identify if the number of vowels are one or two. Suppose that the character you are told of is M, then you can associate two words with it i.e. AIM (that has two vowels) and MOD (that has 1 vowel). You can say the same regarding other characters O and D as well.
Thus all those words that comprises of M, O or D in them can be ruled out. This points us to TIE. If you check with the characters of TIE, you will agree that it stands true for each of the characters of the word. Thus this is the code word.
A man is found dead. When the investigation is done, he is found dead with a knife in his back. A chair sits beside him and the forensic team finds moisture around the body.
If he committed suicide, how did he do it?
The man used an ice knife. The ice was capable of holding the knife pointing upwards and he dropped down on the chair with his back towards the knife. The moisture indicates the melting of ice.
