Re: robbers
a) Raj says that John is a cop.
b) Mohan says that Vishnu is a robber
c) Thaniga says that Raj is not a robber
d) John says that Mohan is not a cop.
e) Vishnu says that Thaniga and Raj play on different sides.
In the above statement, first you see the third one...
In that statement clearly we know, both of them are in the same side...
Because if we assume thaniga is cop then raj alos cop.
if we assume thaniga is a robber then raj also robber.
Now see the fifth one.
so vishnu is a robber
Now see the second one.
so mohan is a cop
Now see the fourh one.
so Jhon is a robber
Now see the first one.
so Raj is a robber
Now see the third one.
so Thaniga is a robber
That's it..You got a answer..
