from previous-
-the truth was that his gang had some eight years ago found masud , he spent these eight years very silently and in hiding, thinking his gang would have forgotten him by now it was a long time , he could not control his fickle nature and bad habits,, he was caught in the valleys of thailand because of his this nature,, he finally gave up a large share of the diamonds but to protect his family he did not reveal their whereabouts, the world goes round only on honesty and honesty in the underworld is very important, so death was his fate that came to him, but the news of his death could never reach naushin, because roshan kept the information to himself
