Silent exodus
Kate sent Shindi, who was in a wheelchair, to observe Helena Faversham's residence to investigate unusual energy pulses. He tried to tell Osgood about having seen a Silent kill a homeless man before forgetting about it and later recorded Miss Faversham talking to one. He played the recording for Kate, ensuring that they remembered it by writing himself notes, and listened as Kate and Josh raided the house. Mustering the strength to walk again, he and Osgood went to the house and were knocked out by the Silents just as the soldiers were. (AUDIO: House of Silents)
After Kate forgot about the Silents, she reassigned Shindi. (AUDIO: Square One)
Shindi joined Kate at the British Rocket Group during the Unified Space Platform mission and took Jacqui McGee back to London when she came trespassing. She asked him to try to remember the Silents, which he began to when he and Josh found items related to them in the stores. Realising that they had forgotten about them, he called Captain Hallett and his men and fought the Silents at Mission Control, killing many of them and preventing some from escaping Earth. Afterwards, he decided that, like Kate, he would put a picture of a Silent on his desk to ensure that he did not forget them again. (AUDIO: In Memory Alone)
The Auctioneers
When Jastrok and his Silurians besieged Great Britain with Krelix's hybrids in the 2010s, Shindi was at a summit in Geneva with the Prime Minister, as well as Professor Elizabeth Klein and several other members of UNIT. (AUDIO: United)
With the identity of "Vikram Revi", Shindi went to Monte Bosque with Kate, Osgood and Josh and found that Maria Gonsalves had a Dalek in her possession. Having encountered Daleks before and lost friends to them, Shindi's mood turned dark. He and Kate were tricked into taking the Dalek mutant into the jungle in search of others of its kind, allowing the mutant to escape and fake its death in a tank explosion. Osgood realised that the deception and Shindi and Josh found its gunstick, using it to damage the Dalek as it reassembled itself. The Dalek self-destructed and the group were rescued by UNIT North America. (AUDIO: The Dalek Transaction)
With reported sightings of the Grey Man across London inciting fear in people, Vikram and his UNIT troops cordoned off a television station in Wood Lane and fought off the apparitions. (AUDIO: Invocation)
He arrived in the Ardennes, observed by Kate via the hologram projector, and discovered a crashed Sontaran capsule. Suddenly, they were ambushed by a squad of Sontarans and Kate lost contact with Vikram. On board the Sontaran ship, he was tortured for information by Marshal Skar. Later the Sontaran enlisted his help in escorting his troops to where Commander Merx was being held captive. Returning to his cell, Vikram managed to turn the damaged hologram projector into a tracking device. This allowed Kate and some UNIT troops to locate Vikram and the Sontarans outside the Torrence Research Foundation. Allying themselves with the Sontarans, UNIT stormed the building and found Osgood held captive. They also uncovered a group of Sontarans cloned by Professor John Torrence hoping to sell them off as warriors for hire in the worldwide auction. (AUDIO: The Sontaran Project)
After an experimental travel capsule, obtained from the auctioneers, vanished with Osgood and Josh inside it and suddenly returned again, all seemed well. However, Vikram was soon told this Osgood was in fact from a sideways dimension where UNIT was run by a fascist state and he was to track her down after she escaped. Soon the other Osgood returned and attempted to escape again in the capsule. Vikram and the team were saved when the capsule just managed to disappear before the dimensional gateway imploded. Vikram then headed off to Kate's office with her where Sam had obtained more information on the auctioneers. (AUDIO: False Negative)
He got worried when Kate and Osgood went to find Bishop. He later located a Box in London which had Sam Bishop inside. (AUDIO: Game Theory)
Osgood used him as part of an experiment in the VR world. In the world they were attacked by mutated dogs. When Shindi found out that the VR world is affected by their imagination he imagined that he could run really fast. He noticed that the parallel world wasn't that different to their own. He started to be cyber-converted. (AUDIO: Telepresence)
Osgood stopped the Cybermen from fully converting him. When he came into contact with Kate, she knocked him out. (AUDIO: Code Silver)
Osgood sent him and Bishop after Kate, the War Master and Carter. They were traced to the Auctioneers base. The Master managed to interrupt the connection to the Cybermen and reversed the conversion. Kate got him to use the Master forcefield to stop the Cybermen coming after them. He protected the base to stop the Cybermen from interfering with Kate's plan. (AUDIO: Master of Worlds)
Alien incursions
He ordered Brundle to be shot after he was infected with the Wirrn. He was later ordered to find Brundle when he escaped. He found out that Brundle was digging a tunnel and tracked it through the countryside. After the Wirrn escaped from the base he had to evacuate the local hospital when the Wirrn infected patients were taken there. (AUDIO: Hosts of the Wirrn)
He was tasked with tracking the Valkyri fleet to Earth. He put Josh on a charge for aiding Osgood in her betrayal. (AUDIO: Breach of Trust)
Osgood managed to get in contact with him whilst she was the Pandora Institute to send a platoon to rescue them. He also had a fighter which had the relay for Osgood's holograms. (AUDIO: Open the Box)
Shindi was covering for Kate in Geneva during the Wampeerix incursion. (AUDIO: The Power of River Song)
