Away from the gang rivalry politics and bloodshed that prevailed in the main Chambal area in one corner of the Chambal region itself was a village named Robbers? Hill. Kailash Pandey lived there. The twenty-year-old young man looked like any other young man. He was five feet eight inches tall fair and had a well-built body. He was not educated but he had learned how to read and write Hindi. Kidnapping for ransom was his profession.
