LUCKNOW: "Revenge is a dish best served cold," said don Vito Corleone in Mario Puzo’s "The Godfather". Shiva Yadav alias Shamsher, now 50, literally lived the message for 15 years and delivered it to his archenemy Ram Jeewan Lodhi, 51, on December 1 – encased in three brass cartridges. Lodhi died on the way to hospital.
The chilling tale of a humiliation and hurt suffered in another decade and the ensuing vendetta unfolded with Shamsher’s arrest and confession on Saturday.
