In recent news, the SIT investigating the 1984 Bokaro riots
has had a huge success.
Ranchi Police have claimed to arrest the main accused in the riots
whose name is Rishi Ranjan.
We're taking you to the police headquarter for more information
where the investigating team is holding a press conference.
This is an important victory for Jharkhand Police.
Rishi Ranjan, the main accused in '84 riots,
has been arrested and the SIT report submitted in court.
The judiciary will follow up on further proceedings.
Sir, we've heard that Rishi Ranjan has also been charged with
the murder of a Jaydev Agarwal.
Yes, this is a different case.
Who filed this case?
We cannot give you any more information about it.
We're still investigating.
Sir, SP Amrita Singh was the SIT chief,
but she is Rishi Ranjan's daughter.
Vikas Mandal is the new SIT incharge.
Sir, just only one question!
D.S.P. VIKAS MANDAL BECOMES THE NEW S.I.T. INCHARGE
A BIG WIN FOR JHARKHAND POLICE: DIG KESHARI
Amrita, you wanted to do something good.
Something great.
This is what you did.
You had a problem with everything in the department.
You didn't trust the system.
You were giving your resignation.
I stopped you.
I trusted you.
The one we were looking for was in your house.
You misled the entire investigation.
You'll face an inquiry.
Until then, here's your suspension order.
Are you out of your minds?
The police have turned this entire matter into a circus!
SIT finds a witness,
and you guys lose him from under your noses!
Suddenly a man shows up,
and he takes full responsibility for the '84 riots!
And he turns out to be the SIT chief's father!
What kind of a joke is this?
Keshari, Vikas Mandal.
Who will take responsibility for this circus?
It is our fault, sir?
The officers cannot be blamed.
Actually, sir,
I had no clue about the witness being taken into custody.
If I knew, I would've taken proper steps for witness protection.
What is the name of the SP's father?
Gurusevak Singh.
Turn Gurusevak Singh into an approver against Sanjay Singh.
But dozens of people in Bokaro have seen him leading the riots.
-We have statements. -I don't care.
Do what it takes.
But make Gurusevak Singh an approver.
You can leave.
What people are saying about me
is true.
I am Rishi Ranjan.
I led the riots.
Burnt the city.
And someone was terribly wronged because of me.
I am her culprit.
So, you've taken full responsibility for the riots.
Will you become an approver?
For 30 years, you kept it a secret.
Why didn't you take this responsibility earlier?
Are you under any pressure?
Are you doing this under any kind of pressure?
Jaydev Agarwal.
Your friend.
You've been charged with his murder.
Sanjay Kumar Singh has filed a case against you.
Sir, I think he's under some kind of pressure.
You won't get results if you handle it so delicately.
What about the pressure I am under?
Who will be answerable to the CM?
Sir...
we're investigating for the SIT
not working for the CM.
Mr. Singh, even I have two daughters.
You raised Amrita by yourself and made her capable.
Why are you throwing it all away now?
Do you want to orphan her?
You're brave to come forward and...
accept everything.
But nearly everyone knows what happened in the Bokaro riots
and who was responsible for it.
But we don't have evidence.
The law is helpless.
You're like family.
I'll give you a piece of advice.
Become an approver.
The CM is taking a personal interest in this case.
I'll speak to him personally.
I'll make sure you get a minimum sentence.
Let me know if you change your mind.
My brothers and sisters...
It's been a while since Santosh passed away.
For the past several days...
SANJAY SINGH GO AHEAD WE ARE WITH YOU
...you've stood here through cold nights and scorching days
expecting justice to be done.
When justice isn't given on request,
then it has to be taken forcefully.
We've given ample time to the government.
And we also gave ample time
to Santosh's murderers hiding in Hind Nagar.
So, if the government can't give us protection,
then we'll have to take responsibility for our protection.
We know what needs to be done.
And even you know what needs to happen.
If your blood doesn't boil yet...
Then it's water running in your veins!
If your blood doesn't boil yet...
Then it's water running in your veins!
If your blood doesn't boil yet...
Then it's water running in your veins!
Vaani!
Run...
Sanjay!
Vaani! Vaani!
Sanjay...
Unknown attackers opened fire at the protest being led by,
Sanjay Singh in Ranchi.
At least ten died and several were injured.
Vaani Jaiswal died in this attack due to a bullet wound.
Earlier, Vaani Jaiswal was on a hunger strike
seeking justice for her husband, Santosh Jaiswal.
Sanjay Singh's wife, Pushpa, was supporting her.
Police have been unable to catch the attackers,
and Sanjay Singh has blamed a special community for the attack.
When did you arrive?
Did you eat anything?
I will.
Get some sleep, son.
Don't go out at nights.
Yes, Mother.
Now, get some sleep.
Due to a special investigation on the riots in Bokaro,
the police have arrested Gurusevak Singh, aka Rishi Ranjan.
It's being said that Rishi Ranjan is charged
with instigating the riots, looting and plundering,
and also charged with the murder of Jaydev Agarwal.
Recently, when an SIT investigation was ordered for the Bokaro riots,
it was being said that Sanjay Singh is the main culprit of the riots.
But with Gurusevak Singh's arrest,
Chief Minister Kedar Bhagat's ruse has backfired on him.
Papa, where was Chunnu Singh all these years
if he really was concerned about your health?
Everyone knows that Chunnu was responsible for the riots.
I think he came here on a personal agenda.
Maybe he wanted to find out
what happened between Jhandu and Rishi that night.
You have to take these pills three times a day.
Take one now and another one at night before you sleep.
Here.
Madam.
Come.
Madam, a man named Sitaram Agarwal came to the police station.
He wants to meet you.
He was saying that he was present in Bokaro during the '84 riots.
He claims to be Jaydev Agarwal's father.
-Bring him in. -Yes.
Come in.
Hello.
What I've been hearing
about the Bokaro riots in the news for the past few days
can be the truth.
But it's not the entire truth.
Rishi and Jhandu...
Jaydev Agarwal, my son.
They were friends.
Good friends.
After the riots,
Jhandu's body was found outside Rishi's room.
Whatever happened between them that night and why,
I have no clue about it.
Rishi was indeed present in the riots.
But the one responsible for the riots, who provoked the people,
was Chunnu, that is Sanjay Singh.
Sanjay Singh came to my village a few days ago.
And he gathered information from me about Rishi and Jhandu.
And this news has been coming after that.
How do you know...
all this about Sanjay Singh?
Come on, get that from the back.
I saw Sanjay Singh's trusted man Suraj
distributing weapons from a white Ambassador car.
And Suraj is still with Sanjay Singh.
Will you testify in court?
Ma'am, we've always seen you pretty resolute.
Don't let this tough time eclipse your hope.
Every eclipse has to make way for the light.
It's the mark of change.
Ma'am, I was the first officer in arresting your father, Mr. Gurusevak.
I was doing my duty.
No, Batuk, you were doing the right thing.
What were you saying about the Santosh Jaiswal case?
Remember I told you about Usman Alam.
A week before his death, Santosh regularly called this number.
Long conversations.
Durga Prasad is overlooking the case.
I see.
He wants to establish him as the prime suspect.
I went several times to Hind Nagar looking for him.
-Hind Nagar. -Yes.
-Is he a resident of Hind Nagar? -Yes.
Madam, this area falls under Sanjay Singh's assembly.
Come, ma'am.
Madam, he was at home when I came yesterday.
And he was ready to meet you.
Hindus and Muslims live here, but there are more Muslims.
For many years, Hindus and Muslims have been living together, madam.
Come.
This way.
Look, madam, we are small-timers.
Santosh Jaiswal would gather news,
and we would sell that news to the media agencies.
Elections were drawing near,
so we were gathering political news.
We found out that many names missing in the Hind Nagar voter list.
-Greetings. -Hello.
-Is this Jiauddin's residence? -Yes, it is.
-What is your name? -Ruksar.
How many people in your house vote?
Including my uncle, there are eight.
-Eight? -Yes.
-Did you vote the last time? -Yes, we did.
-Your entire family? -Yes.
Okay.
-Greetings. Do you vote? -Yes.
How many people in your house vote?
-Five. -Seven...
Four.
-Seven members, including you. -Yes.
-What's your name? -Shaina.
Yes, my name is Hamid Ali.
Greetings. Is this Hasan Miyan the tailor's house?
-Is your name Janardhan Pandey? -Yes, sir?
And did you file a complaint or tell anyone about this?
What is the chief saying?
I did complain about my picture not being proper.
Miss, is Sandeep Sinha around here?
-How many people? -Seven.
Who is Sonu Singh? And Julie Kumari?
When the census people came here the last time,
did they cover the entire area?
They did.
-Did you get your voting ticket this time? -I didn't.
And this was the handiwork of Sanjay Singh's men.
Santosh went to Bokaro to find out more.
And he also found out that
Sanjay Singh played a vital role in the '84 Bokaro riots.
He found hard evidence against Sanjay Singh,
and he prepared this report.
He wanted to give that report to me.
But before we could meet, Sanjay Singh's men abducted him
and then murdered him.
And now Sanjay Singh is using
Santosh Jaiswal's name for political mileage.
He's provoking Hindus and Muslims against each other.
The people in this area are scared.
Anything can happen.
It just needs a spark.
Come with us, Usman.
Testify in court.
Don't bring me in the light, madam.
I have children.
You'll be safe. I am there.
Santosh was killed in front of your eyes.
Could you save him?
No.
Look, madam, I know you're an honest officer.
I told you everything I know.
It's the best I could do.
Please spare me.
Where is CM sir?
Outside in the garden.
Are you done? Now, go.
Amrita Singh.
In what capacity have you come to talk to me?
In the capacity of a suspended officer
who is facing an inquiry.
Speak.
Sir...
There's going to be riots in Hind Nagar.
What is the basis of your claim?
That's where I'm coming from right now.
It's being done in a very organised manner.
Houses have been identified. They have been marked.
People have been divided into two groups.
The situation is pretty serious.
You made such tall claims before leaving for Bokaro.
But couldn't find a single piece of evidence against Sanjay.
But, sir, we didn't learn a fact in the investigation.
What?
There was a white-colour Ambassador,
which was being used during the '84 riots
to distribute arms and inflammables all night.
What evidence do you have?
I have an eyewitness.
He said that a guy called Suraj was in the car.
He worked for Sanjay Singh.
And he still works for Sanjay Singh.
Does Sanjay Singh know that you know this fact?
No, sir.
Amrita, I will control Hind Nagar.
Go and arrest Suraj Singh. I give you power.
Thank you, sir.
Mr. Keshari, come to my bungalow immediately.
What about the university?
We'll manage the university.
And the town square?
Majority of them are our people. It'll be done.
Amrita Singh.
How can I help you?
Come to the police station.
I think you've forgotten the boundaries of the law.
First, you hid a '84 rioter in your house,
and now you've come here to make arrests.
Without the uniform.
I know how concerned you are about the law.
The day I come for you, I'll be in my uniform.
Stay within your limits.
Hey!
Do you know what you're doing?
You can't keep me for more than an hour in the police station.
Hey, stop!
I don't want any riots in Hind Nagar.
-Sir? -I know what's going on in the city.
And I also know that you're aware of it.
Keshari...
Turn a blind eye for a while.
Let people from both sides die.
After that uphold law and order.
Frame Chunnu.
Then the elections will turn in our favour.
I want no bloodshed at any cost.
Arrest those preparing for the riots.
Break them down.
And turn them into approvers against Sanjay.
Follow the State Government's orders!
Sir.
The incident that occurred with Santosh Jaiswal and his wife,
-do you know-- -I do...
Do you know who did it?
It's all their doing. They are to be blamed for it!
Long live... Santosh Singh!
An eye for an eye!
Don't talk to me like that!
Then how do we talk to you?
The area should be filled with terror.
Tell them to shut up.
I was saying try to understand them.
Show some manners.
I told you to shut it so shut it.
We'll handle everything.
-Shut your mouth! -Quiet!
-What is it, asshole? -Get lost!
JHARKHAND POLICE HEADQUARTER
-Sir. -Come in.
-Durga Prasad. -Sir...
Are you overlooking Hind Nagar?
Yes.
-The situation can get serious. -Sir.
Take charge. Keep a watch.
-See which way the wind blows. -Yes, sir.
And...
Call me before taking any action.
-Sir. -Go on.
Yes.
Something's going to happen in Hind Nagar.
-The situation is pretty awkward. -What's going to happen?
Santosh Jaiswal found out something significant
about Sanjay Singh in connection to the Bokaro riots.
That's why he was murdered.
And the same people are trying to instigate a riot in Hind Nagar.
I don't understand.
On what basis are you saying this?
I met a man named Usman.
He used to work with Santosh. He told me this.
-Where are you now? -I am in Hind Nagar.
You're not on duty.
Vikas, just because I am not in uniform
doesn't mean I can't do my duty.
Are you going to tell us whether we'll stay in this neighbourhood?
Our forefathers used to live in this neighbourhood.
We've been living here for four generations.
I thought you would understand this.
They were blaming us.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. What's going on here?
Madam, shots were fired at Sanjay Singh's protest.
And before that, reporter Santosh Jaiswal was murdered.
And they were blaming us for it.
Today Vaani Jaiswal was murdered,
and they've been blaming us since the morning circulating videos.
He's been blabbering nonsense.
I am not blabbering. It's true.
You guys are not fit to live in this neighbourhood.
They are rioters.
Wait. You can't talk like that.
Madam, we're not talking nonsense.
We have a video. Show her the video.
Look at this video, madam.
Look, don't believe in rumours.
This is only to instigate a riot between people.
And don't believe in these messages that have been forwarded to you.
Madam, it's not just the message.
These guys are preparing for a big riot in this neighbourhood.
Come, I'll show you what's going on here.
Come with me, madam.
Come, I'll show you what's going on here.
Come, I'll show you
-the weapons they are hiding. -What... where are you going?
Where do you think you're going? You guys...
You can't barge into my house like this.
I'll show you their preparation.
They have gathered arms.
Search the place.
They have petrol cans.
Batuk, seal all this.
What is this?
Preparing to save our people.
Save them from whom?
These people.
These guys are going to attack my house.
How do you know?
We were told, madam. We received a video.
We've all seen it.
These are rumours.
And all of you believed these things and were ready to kill each other.
This is what people like Sanjay Singh want.
They have been provoking you for years.
So, what should we do?
Die?
What about our family then?
Try to understand this! All of you.
It's a ruse by outsiders to divide the people
for your votes!
And all of you who have been living together for ages
have been celebrating every festival together
were so easily provoked to fight.
Look, ma'am, even I don't want to use a weapon.
Even I have a family.
But can you guarantee that my wife and children will be safe?
We are with you. With all of you!
But you guys have to be together.
Go inside.
-Come out. -Everyone, go inside.
It's a huge mob.
Don't spare anyone.
Come on everyone.
They are here! They are all here!
There's a large crowd at the square with several arms.
I told you they cannot be trusted.
They are your people.
Quiet. Be quiet.
They are only rioters, not Hindus or Muslims.
And you stay here, in your house.
-Batuk, stay with him. -Yes.
-Vikas there... -Where?
Riot has broken out. Come on.
Move back!
Stay back!
Stop!
Who among you is Hindu?
Who is Muslim? How do you know?
By their faces?
Who am I? Hindu or Muslim?
Who is he? Hindu or Muslim? Tell me!
And aren't you a Hindu? And you're Muslim.
You two are standing on the same side.
They are goons on hire.
Sent by outsiders to provoke you.
To make you fight.
And you guys are ready to fight.
What's wrong with you?
What good will it do?
Your homes will burn, your children will die.
They will run away.
What will happen to you then?
They are hired goons.
Vikas!
Vikas...
