You are living at you place alone. You own a shed which has been locked. The lock that has been placed on the door can be closed without a key but need the key to be opened. You collected some old stuff and decided to keep it in the shed. After keeping the things, you locked it back. The next day, the police found a dead body inside the shed. As you are the only one living in your house, the police has nothing else to believe than you are the murderer. But you have not committed any crime.

There is a way the murder would have happened. Can you find that way and tell the police so you are not sentenced for the crime you did not commit?

Detective Karamchand had been called to investigate the disappearance of a woman called Jaya Sharma.
He knocked on the door of the house she had been living in with her husband.
Parth Sharma answered. 'Thanks for coming, Detective. My wife went missing today. I noticed a few weird things around the house, but I left everything as it was for your arrival. Nobody else lives in the house.'
Karamchand was led to the dining room. 'Last time I saw Jaya, she was having breakfast at 7am in this room today, before I left for work. When I came home at 5pm today, the breakfast was still on the table. There it is.' He gestured towards the table, which had breakfast on it. 'The suspicious thing is, she never goes out for more than 5 hours at a time and she always lets me know. I am suspicious.'
As Karamchand walked towards the table, he noticed a scrumpled piece of paper on the floor. It didn't have anything written on it.
He accidentally knocked over a coffee cup on the dining table, spilling it on his hand. Fortunately, it had only scalded his hand slightly. 'Sorry!' He walked to the sink to rinse it.
'What a shame,' said Parth. 'Jaya doesn't get on very well without her coffee. It's a shame she didn't drink it. Personally, I hate coffee.'
In the sink was a Post-It with 'Go Inside' written on it. There was a long pink string tied between two cabinet handles at the very top of the kitchen. The window was open and a smashed bowl was on the windowsill.
'From this evidence, Parth, either you are faking the disappearance, or you are involved.'
How did he work it out?
