This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to any person living or dead is entirely coincidental.
In a work of this kind, it is necessary to base it on some facts.
Reference to such facts in any narrative does not imply that everything
in that narrative is true. (An instance of such reference would be "I went
to New York and stayed in Manhattan" where both New York and Manhattan
are real places although I have actually not gone to New York or even if
I did, I may not have stayed in Manhattan) I assign to myself poetic
/ author's licence to use such facts in my narrative.
