Gangs of the shadowy County - Original Writing Get ya bananas, ten for a flummox How about you love? Fancy some bananas? These words could be heard shouted through the rustle and bustle of Dudley Town Market on the highschool Street. It was a typical market town, it had the smells and some sights, a Norman Castle perched upon a hill overlooked the town, but whiz could tell that not that large ago this town was something more important than it was today. Dudley was in the heart of the Black Country, it was the key town during the Industrial revolution, supplying iron ore to large companies. Believe it or not underneath the littered ground there are hundreds of man made mines, which have scarred the landscape of the Black Country. The High Street is one long road with shops parallel to each other, but it lacked many designer high street shops it had a few, but not enough. Since a nearby shopping composite had opened no one wanted to go to Dudley any more. So this lonely town was left with many pound and discount shops. Mr Arjun Singh, a renowned man of affairs who had a small chain of discount stores around the Black Country, owned one of these shops. He had three sons, Abdul, Arjun Jr and Sanjit. Mr Singhs wife had passed away a year before, the dupe of a tragic car accident. Abdul, the eldest of the three sons, was still emotionally tormented by his mothers death. Recent CCTV footage had shown that Mrs Singh had been a victim of an organised hit and act upon ordeal. The blame had recently been laid onto another local businessman, Jason Barley. One of his upmarket stores was right next to Mr Singhs discount shop. It was thought Mr Barley had gang connections all over the Black Country, however not enough evidence was available to point an accusing finger at Jason Barley to the murder of Mrs Singh. Monday was an important day for Mr Singh and his three sons because Mr Singh had so far again cut all the prices on his stock.
