Solution

I never thought that I would get a case that day. It was quite unfortunate that I caught a boy red handed with seventeen oranges. This occurred in the shipyard. Wishing to warn other people against stealing, 1 decided to take action against this boy. I locked him in a cabin. He was frightened and upset.

He thought that he would lose his job and be imprisoned. I went out to bring another policeman to be a witness against the boy. The policeman and I returned to the cabin. We entered the cabin and found that the oranges were finished off. The oranges were the only evidence we had. Now there was no evidence to punish, him. I was in sheer disappointment. We became helpless. We could not keep the boy in the cabin. So we released the boy and he went home cheerfully, “It is always true that man proposes but God disposes”.
