One day his white sergeant gives him the task of bringing to justice some murderers from a distant village. Kovi discovers that one of the murdered men was his father and Kovi is very upset. He captures the murderers but on the way back the one who murdered his father slips from the boat. At first Kovi decides to allow the man to drown but changes his mind and saves him.
