In the television episode titled The Case of Double Cross Murder from the series C.I.D., a young woman named Sheela is found murdered after being shot in the chest by her landlady, Malti. Following the discovery, the society watchman informs the officers of the C.I.D. that three different men came to visit Sheela on the exact night she was murdered. An investigation into the visitors reveals that two of these men actually discovered Sheela already dead when they arrived to see her, raising questions about the reliability of the alibis provided by all three men. As the inquiry continues, the officers come across a photograph featuring Sheela alongside another girl named Rita.
