Jasoosi Dunya - Colonel Faridi

Colonel Faridi

Ahmed Kamal Faridi has aristocratic linage and is son of a Nawab, an Indian Baron. A man of principles, Faridi believes in rigorously disciplined life, controlled emotions, and objectivity. His abstinence from inebriation, carnal lusts, and uncontrolled desires illustrates his sound character. Women leave a little rather no affect on him; emotionally he appears unmoved. Because of his impassive and subdued emotional nature, Captian Hameed dubs him as "Father Hardstone". It does not mean that he is dispassionate, deep inside he is of a sensitive nature.

He is very well read and highly educated man. Even though rolling in money, he, obsessed with interest criminology, joins the police department as a mere inspector and remained there forever. Due to his remarkable services to the nation, he, nevertheless, is conferred upon the title of Honorary Colonel later in life. The President has accorded him a "special permission" to interfere in any matter that required his attention. He, therefore, has organized a secret crime-fighting establishment known as the "Black Force". The Force is an international organization and its members remember their chief as Colonel Hardstone.

Like his nature, Faridi has acquired some peculiar hobbies. His interests include reading, and domesticating dogs and snakes. Science, specifically chemistry, appeals him so much that he owns a state-of-the-art laboratory at home. He also knows several local and foreign languages.

Famous quotes containing the word colonel:

    I am asked if I would not be gratified if my friends would procure me promotion to a brigadier-generalship. My feeling is that I would rather be one of the good colonels than one of the poor generals. The colonel of a regiment has one of the most agreeable positions in the service, and one of the most useful. “A good colonel makes a good regiment,” is an axiom.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
