تفاصيل القضية

On the fiftieth floor of the Apex Commercial Tower lies the luxurious office of CEO Jalal Diaa. At 4:30 PM on a winter day, his secretary found him dead from a single, precise stab wound to the back of the neck, his body sprawled behind his massive desk. His coffee mug lay shattered on the floor next to his hand.

The tower boasts a strict security system; no one can go up or down without using magnetic key cards. On that day, only five people were present on the executive management floor. The main problem is that preliminary investigations indicate the crime occurred within a very narrow timeframe, and everyone claims to have been somewhere else.

Investigators are facing a web of lies; some testimonies completely contradict the physical evidence at the crime scene. The killer planned the crime brilliantly and tried to manipulate the time of death to create the perfect alibi, but they forgot one physical detail that cannot be faked.

الأدلة والقرائن

4 دليل

The western glass facade of the office is automatically programmed to switch to 'total blackout mode' (100% pitch black, letting in zero light or visibility) daily at exactly 4:05 PM to block the harsh, direct sunlight. The manual override switch is intentionally broken and disconnected from the power supply.

A sensitive voice recorder on the victim's desk that activates automatically when it picks up sound above 40 decibels. The device recorded: [3:55 PM] Footsteps and a door closing. [4:08 PM] A very heavy thud on the floor followed by shattering glass. [4:09 PM to 4:29 PM] Complete silence; the device recorded no words or movement.

The main exit gates log on the ground floor shows only one access card used between 4:00 PM and 4:30 PM, specifically at 4:25 PM. It also recorded the electronic door to the secret archives section on the 49th floor being opened at exactly 4:06 PM.

The victim was killed by a stab to the spinal cord, causing instant death with no signs of a struggle. The body is sprawled directly behind the desk, with the coffee shattered around his hand. There are no bloodstains near the glass window or in the middle of the room.
