Solution and Explanation

In this illustration, I will present the sequence from the perspective of the \textit{policeman}, who witnesses the crime and takes immediate action. The frames will depict the following:
Frame 1: The woman is walking on the crowded platform. People are standing on either side. The train is about to pull in.
Frame 2: The man snatches the woman's bag and runs past her. 
Frame 3: The woman screams for help, and the people on the platform look alarmed.
Frame 4: The policeman looks up from the vendor’s cart, his eyes fixed on the thief. 
Frame 5: The thief continues running towards the stairs of the overhead bridge. 
Frame 6: The policeman takes out his baton and starts running after the thief. 
Frame 7: The thief trips on the policeman’s baton thrown at his legs. 
Frame 8: The thief stumbles and falls onto the platform, with people looking on in shock. 
Frame 9: A group of men runs toward the thief and captures him. 
Frame 10: The policeman reaches the thief and helps hold him down. 
Frame 11: The bag is handed back to the woman, who is now standing with the two women who had been consoling her. 
Frame 12: The crowd cheers as the policeman stands tall, proud of his quick actions.
Frame 13–20: These frames show further details of the environment: close-ups of the woman’s relief, the thief's expressions, the crowd’s reactions, and the police officer being congratulated by bystanders.
