    Birbal Caught The Thief

    Uploaded by

    Birbal helped a merchant catch a thief who had robbed his house. When none of the merchant's servants would admit to the theft, Birbal gave each servant an identically long stick and said the real thief's stick would grow longer by two inches overnight. The next day, one servant's stick was noticeably shorter, revealing he had preemptively cut it to avoid being exposed by Birbal's trick. Birbal cleverly uncovered the thief through psychological manipulation rather than evidence.

    Birbal caught the Thief

    Once a rich merchants house was robbed. The merchant suspected that the thief was
    one of his servants. So he went to Birbal and mentioned the incident. Birbal went to his
    house and assembled all of his servants and asked that who stole the merchants things.
    Everybody denied.
    Birbal thought for a moment, then gave a stick of equal length to all the servants of the
    merchant and said to them that the stick of the real thief will be longer by two inches
    tomorrow. All the servants should be present here again tomorrow with heir sticks.
    All the servants went to their homes and gathered again at the same place the next day.
    Birbal asked them to show him their sticks. One of the servants had his stick shorter by
    two inches. Birbal said, This is your thief, merchant.
    Later the merchant asked Birbal, How did you catch him? Birbal said, The thief had
    already cut his stick short by two inches in the night fearing that his stick will be longer
    by two inches by morning.
    Moral: Truth will always Prevail.
