City of Lights & (Il)legal vibes (2)

List of Characters

Debjyoti: He is a lawyer of Aloknagri and the protagonist of this story. The people of Aloknagri says that he has obtained his LLB degree by questionable means. Bad-tempered and quarrelsome, he is known for fabricating one lie after another.

Indranil: Bosom pal of Debjyoti. He is also a lawyer of Aloknagri. He is shrewd and manipulative. He walks with a hunch.

Swapnamoy: Another bosom pal of Debjyoti. He is also a lawyer of Aloknagri. The literal meaning of his name has a connection with dreams. But in reality, he is nightmare personified. He is a sexagenarian, but age has not been able to mellow him.

Aaradhana: Another bosom pal of Debjyoti. She is a criminal lawyer of Aloknagri. The people of Aloknagri says that she is very close to the ruling party. She is not bashful like typical Bengali womenfolk. Rather, she unabashedly declares that people often use abusive language against her for her multiple flings with the male lawyers of the Aloknagri Court.

Girindranath: He is the Secretary of Aloknagri Criminal Bar Association. His unequivocal support to the lawyers in all their endeavours, be they legal or illegal, has made him extremely popular among the lawyers. This is the reason, perhaps, of his consecutive wins in the elections for the post of Bar Secretary.

Nishapati: He is the Vice-President of both Aloknagri Civil Bar Association and Aloknagri Criminal Bar Association. All human beings have some foibles. Nishapati’s foible is his henna-dyed hair. And he has a weakness for the women species of the human race.
