In the corridors of a place built for healing, violence arrived carrying its own history. On a Saturday afternoon in Ambala, two men with criminal pasts came to a hospital to visit the sick, and one left having killed the other — the entire act witnessed by security cameras that recorded what human witnesses could scarcely believe. The episode raises an old and unresolved question: how far does the shadow of a life lived outside the law extend, and who else stands within it.
