A scene from the teledrama ‘Sanda Gomman Re’

One day he gets late after a lecture and gets into the vehicle to get back home. It was a gloomy evening and Prof. Fernando felt a difference in nature. To reach his house he had to traverse a path surrounded by a forest. Suddenly he stops his vehicle seeing a woman standing in front of his vehicle.

Honking several times he finds the woman refuses to get aside from the road and the angered professor gets down and goes to the woman. Here the woman, Nataliya starts a quarrel with the old man and she comes out with a strange story. Nataliya says that a few minutes ago she was killed by her lover Frederick. She tells the professor to punish Frederick and his friend Ronald who were responsible for her murder and warns otherwise he (Professor) would be in trouble. Having said this she disappears.

Sometimes Nataliya herself comes forward to help the Professor whenever he is in trouble.
