You all right?
Can you hear me?
Move! Empty the cart. Hurry.
Will someone help?
Basu sir,
a city looks so normal seen from afar.
But is it normal?
Dhruv, you've had your half hour. Enough, hurry, come out.
Five minutes!
Here.
Careful! It's hot.
Dhruv!
I've put your tiffin in your bag. It's got gravy,
so keep the bag upright. OK?
Megha! Your bowl.
I'm giving it to Sana.
Charlie! Hurry up!
- Isn't Charlie ready yet? - He's still in the bathroom.
Maybe he hasn't done his homework.
Good idea!
I've left your bag here.
- Crazy girl! - You're crazy!
Dhruv, come quickly.
Papa has gone.
What is it, Ma?
Can't you let a kid bathe in peace?
Now hurry up!
Mama, how do you say "I love you" in Malayalam?
Why? Who do you want to say it to?
- I'm not telling you! - I see!
Enikku ninne ishtamaanu.
Let me.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
I'll count 3, 2, 1, then I'll pull the zip down. Ready?
3...
You said one!
Comrade, what's wrong?
Kartik!
Vinay, I bought this 30-rupee sandwich. Look.
It must have only 100 grams of paneer and some other stuff.
- But how come it costs 30-rupees? - It's fake paneer, Kartik!
- Bye. - Bye.
They make it with palm oil.
There's no milk in it. It's not real paneer.
Parima!
Careful!
Stop! Let Sana get on first.
Why should girls go first?
- Because... - He's just a kid.
Yes. But these kids will become grown-ups one day.
My beloved is black and beautiful
Fair-skinned ones, step aside!
My beloved is black and beautiful
They're expiring today.
Sir, I'll replace them tomorrow.
If anyone buys the sauces today, they'll have them tomorrow.
Right?
What are you doing, Vinay?
They're expiring. I'm changing them.
We will survive if bees survive.
- We will survive... - ... if bees survive.
OK.
Basu sir, the ambulance is stuck in traffic.
The delivery guy has squeezed through.
The children can't cross.
Brother Kartik!
When did you get here?
You didn't tell me.
How long have you been back?
Six months.
Why's your house lying empty?
Kartik. Kaveri was waiting for you.
The doctor gave her three days.
She waited seven days for you.
Your phone was off. What choice did I have?
"Where's her husband?" The doctor kept asking me.
You know, I had to sign that form,
the form to stop the aggressive treatment and let her go...
It was just a job, you could've quit, found another job.
I did quit.
- My job wasn't the normal kind, Raavi. - Not the normal kind?
Loads of people work, some even work abroad.
They have families, go on holidays.
Celebrate birthdays, but they come home.
They're by their wife's side when she's dying.
There was more.
I can't say more than that.
All right.
So what have you been doing for the last 6 months?
NexFresh.
Floor supervisor.
She was waiting for you.
One minute.
Here. Her phone.
She recorded voice messages for you. I didn't have the heart to hear them.
Take it.
Take it, Kartik. Take it!
- She's in there. - OK. Thank you.
She drives her lover crazy
She shoots with her eyes
She's some girl!
She shoots with her eyes
- Let me say goodbye. - Stay, Parima.
They'll be dancing for another two hours.
You dance too! Enjoy!
I'll make some excuse to Rajinder. Go on!
Ma'am, come and dance.
Pull up in front of her.
Hurry up. Quick.
Cover her mouth.
- What are you doing? - Get inside!
Harry, what's this?
What are you doing?
- Hurry, drive! - I won't drive.
Quick! Come on.
Namaste, sister-in-law. Dhruv!
He was playing. He's asleep now.
- What's Charlie done now? - Ask his father.
Brother, must you always punish your son?
You keep punishing him,
taking out your anger on him.
Why? Didn't our father raise us like this?
- Forgotten how he treated us? - Yes, I've forgotten.
- I'm glad I have. - Good. But I haven't forgotten.
Squat like a chicken! Or I'll turn you into an ostrich.
55, 56, 57...
58, 59, 60...
61, 62, 63, 64...
Damn you!
Why are you hitting her, you moron?
- Harry, control your friend. - Shut up and drive!
71, 72, 73, 74...
75, 76, 77...
78, 79, 80...
Whoever gets bowled out first treats us to beer.
Done!
I'll drop you somewhere. Do what you want.
Stop! Let's watch the show!
This is Papa's car. There'll be big trouble.
It's too late!
- Sameer! - The energy powder is working wonders!
92, 93, 94...
Almost a century.
Can't get it up again. Who's next?
Coward!
Coward, coward, coward.
- Wicked fellow! - Bunty's done it!
- Looks like he's buying the beer. - Let her go.
Shut up!
Bunty! Got a taste for it now?
Sure I have!
Don't get tired now, Ghool.
What happened? Drained, eh?
80, 81, 82...
Mother, my sweet mother
Quiet! Papa's calling.
Bro has hit a century!
Shut up!
Vinay, is she back?
Vinay!
Hello. Sorry, Rehana.
Mother, my sweet mother
I miss you so
She isn't home yet.
OK. OK. I'll keep you posted.
How do I go home through this darkness, O Mother?
The silence swallowed my cry
Stuff her inside the car. Let's go.
- What did your father say? - He's fixed it.
The twisted path spread into eternal darkness
No one could hear the cry I killed within me
Mother, my sweet mother
I miss you so
- Is she an aunt of yours or something? - Hey, Ghool, no!
Drive!
Mother, my sweet mother
I miss you so
Move!
Hurry up, you fools, out!
- Do it later. - Can't button it up.
- Where are we going? - We gotta cross the road.
- Stop! - Come on.
Hurry up! What are you doing?
Come on. Run!
Stop here!
Get your phones out.
Quick! Don't waste time.
An Alto, number plate 1825, is on its way.
- Get some tea. I'll be back. - Where to?
- Give me the keys. - Look out for the Alto.
Bed 56 is getting discharged soon.
On night duty?
I'll see you in the evening.
Attention Dr. Prasad! Please report to the emergency ward immediately.
This is an urgent request.
81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87...
There were four.
In the car...
They dragged me in...
Inside... inside, they...
Driver...
Driver?
Inside, they said...
They said, go.
- Let's go... - Go?
- They ripped my skirt. - They ripped my skirt.
I can't talk.
I can't...
- Where? - Sir, over there.
Make sure your statement is right.
- Thank you. - No need to thank me.
He brought her in.
Name and address? Sign here.
You could've left Dhruv with your brother. Why bring him here?
I thought about it.
But he won't be spared all this at home either.
Take it to the lab.
Mayur, ask around. Did anyone see the woman? Go!
Anything on CCTV?
Nothing yet. Offices open at 10.30.
What? Couldn't they open an hour earlier?
Suman is trying. We've spoken to Yadav-ji.
I'm checking the whole area.
- Where was she found? - Over there.
- Aunt Sunita called again. - She called me too.
Zoom in.
See the number plate? Read it.
2432?
- Yes, sir, it's 32. - Looks like 37.
Sir, it's 32.
- 2432? - Yes, sir.
Papa, give it a rest for once.
Sure! Nothing like this happens in the village!
No, no, Papa. Papa! Have I ever asked you for anything?
We've managed all these years. So we'll manage now.
No, no! Just protect your honour!
She's not a Madrasi, she's a Malayali.
You'll sleep at Megha Aunty's house tonight. OK?
I'll go back and stay with your Mama.
I could've stayed at the hospital too.
Yes, of course. But there's no need, comrade.
And someone has to look after the house.
- Who lives at number 165? - Deepraaj-ji.
What work does he do?
He's in real estate.
The son drives his car.
He has four friends. They loaf around all day.
They drink at night and dump their beer bottles here.
Where do they sit?
See that round tent? They sit over there and drink.
Sir.
They washed the car and dumped it here.
Send the car to the lab. We might find something.
Got the owner's phone number?
Yes, sir.
We have the numbers of all four boys.
I've sent them to the department.
What's wrong?
Step back! What you staring at?
- Are you Ballu? - Yes, sir.
- Father's name? - Your name?
Why are you hitting me, sir? What's happened?
My book.
Sorry, sorry.
Do you know the Ramdhari Singh Dinkar?
No, sir. What happened?
Know what Ramdhari Singh Dinkar wrote?
Sir, he's lying about me.
Know Vinod Kumar Shukla?
First time I hear his name.
Ask Shukla and Dinkar to talk in front of me. They're lying.
They're lying?
Do you know them?
Never heard of them, sir. They're lying.
They're lying?
Amrita Pritam?
- Ismat Chughtai? - Tai? Which aunty?
Which aunty!
Get in!
Move aside!
- Brother! - Move, ma'am.
We were at a wedding. It's all fake. All fake.
Move aside.
Did the police mistreat you in any way?
- No. - No, sir.
I'm standing for the accused. My authorisation letter is also on record.
There's no evidence against my clients, Your Honour.
They were not driving the car.
Your Honour, I'm requesting remand for further investigation.
The present remand application is allowed.
Accused sent to police custody for four days.
State vs. Bhaleram.
Sir! Sir, you didn't tell them the car was stolen.
- No question of bail today. - Not today.
At the next hearing they'll get bail, right?
My daughter's wedding is soon.
- It depends on how the case progresses. - Rita-ji...
You'll have to win, Navratan-ji.
- These are our children. - We'll talk later.
How much did that man want to take Mummy to the hospital?
Why would he ask for money?
Nice.
You know most people around us are good people.
Sure?
No.
Why did those people do that to Mummy?
Sana told me about it.
What did she say?
It's a secret.
If it's a secret, then don't tell me.
I heard about your colleague's wife.
I'm hoping you're not going to the hospital.
74! Bed Number 74!
The doctor is doing her rounds. She's calling you.
Don't go. We've talked about this.
I'm requesting you, don't go to the hospital.
You'll be triggered again.
Bed Number 74.
She's hallucinating. It happens sometimes.
It could be the meds. Or the trauma.
A family member should sit by her side and talk to her.
It'll comfort her.
Sit down. Talk to her. I'll be back.
Vinay, where were you? Why didn't you come sooner?
Let's go home, Vinay.
Please.
Vinay, please.
Where are you, my love?
Please come home, Kartik.
I'm waiting.
Yesterday the doctor told Raavi he was surprised.
He doesn't know me.
As if I'd go without seeing you.
I can't hold on any longer. Shall I go?
We'll meet again, no?
Damn it! There's always an issue with your timing.
You're always late.
We planned a January trip to Jaisalmer, but you took me there in the heat.
This time you're a bit too late.
I wanted a last hug from you, my love.
Know what frightens me?
If you don't come, you'll feel guilty about not coming.
You don't know how to deal with guilt.
But don't go crazy, please.
Please, Kartik. I'm not going angry.
You must forgive yourself.
Please.
If only she had waited 10 seconds before crossing that road.
How long must you keep looking at that video? How long?
Move on, Kartik. Move on!
- Basu sir, that's Kaveri. - Yes, yes, I know it is Kaveri.
They were bloody drunken drivers.
The scum probably didn't even know they'd hit someone.
Exactly, sir.
Someone must find them and ask them if they ever feel sorry.
Do they ever wake up at night screaming?
Find them, sir. Then I'll move on.
- This report... - I have done my best.
And you have done more than your best.
The car had no number plate.
There's a process.
What was your process and mine, sir?
I did whatever you told me to do.
I left town for your sake. My home was destroyed.
I cannot return to that house.
My friend, stop looking at the CCTV footage.
Will you stop burning yourself?
Sir...
Shit!
Cover your faces.
You'll appear in court like this.
If the judge asks who the accused are, then show your faces.
Ghool, give me this one.
- I'll wear it. - Why?
Matching colours! Great!
Give me that.
Take them out. Or I'll match their faces to the colour of my fist.
Manoj, come here.
Pull out the blue file from this lot.
You don't work properly.
Vinay works with me.
Sit down.
I still can't bring myself to take Kaveri's place.
Move!
Move aside!
Side, please. Side, side. Excuse me. Side, please.
I've suffered injustice for 8 years, madam.
Your file will help get you justice.
Your bank passbook is attached here.
Hire a lawyer.
Then I'll be done for!
Madam, I have all the documents. See?
Madam, finish this case today somehow. Please!
I have to keep coming from Jalandhar. Please.
One minute. The documents are in Punjabi.
Madam, let's get Google to translate.
No, get the translations printed up.
We'll try and conclude at the next hearing.
I hear you get tasty pinni in Jalandhar.
- I'll get you some next time. - No, no. I was just remembering it.
16th May. Next hearing.
State vs. ADT and Others.
Papa. Are these the guys?
The judge will tell us.
Who are the accused?
Go ahead, Navratan-ji.
Your Honour, the accused were attending
a relative's wedding at Chandara, 45km away.
As they entered the Tora Kheda turning,
four armed rascals stole their car.
They took their wallets and phones at 7 p.m.
The police report is attached. 8 p.m.
The car was possibly misused. Quite heinous.
This isn't the first incident of car theft at that spot.
Somehow my clients got to the wedding...
Somehow?
Sorry?
How did they get to the wedding?
Someone gave them a lift, and then they caught a bus.
Where was the bus heading?
Ma'am, has the trial started?
I'm just curious.
My clients are victims, Your Honour. We pray for your justice.
At which police station was the car reported stolen?
Tora Kheda.
I have the report here.
Ma'am, the forensic report is here.
The DNA on the woman's body doesn't match
the DNA profiles of A, B, C or D.
The DNA samples do not match a single accused.
Ma'am, the Prosecution wants the tests redone
at the COSF lab, please.
The other samples...
Madam, I've not seen a false negative in my entire career.
I have, unfortunately.
Get the tests redone.
Prima Facie, there's no case against us, ma'am.
Keeping my clients in custody another day would be a grave injustice.
Are you objecting to the tests being redone?
Ma'am...
Custody extended.
Request a report from the lab. Top priority.
Next.
State vs. Malti Kumar.
- It's all a mistake. - Sir, do something.
Why weren't they granted bail today?
Deepraaj-ji, patience! It takes time.
How much time, sir?
Vinay-ji, why are you bringing your child to court?
Child?
He's hardly a child now.
He's grown up, Meera-ji.
Sometimes the number plate's missing, or the DNA.
It's a classic case.
Three hours before the incident, the car is stolen, a report is filed.
And the DNA samples do not match.
- You get it, don't you? - Yes, ma'am.
You were correct.
The DNA samples must be redone.
- Can I go? - Yes.
Thank you, ma'am.
What's going on, Sanjay-ji?
Madam,
I keep thinking of something Ram Manohar Lohia said.
"There is a limit to slipping.
"Hammer in a peg, hammer in a hook.
"Mark the line.
"So we slip no further than this."
Your Dhruv is very cute.
He looks straight through you!
He asks me nothing.
But when I see him, I feel I'm answerable.
Ma'am, some people say it takes 12 years, or 20 years.
Some say if rape is not proven,
a case could be filed against the girl.
Many things happen, Parima.
People try to bribe the victim, offer millions of rupees.
Maybe you've already had an offer?
I'm representing you in court, Parima,
but outside court, you have to handle the case.
I wish I could see you more clearly.
If you can identify the four boys in a line-up,
we won't need further evidence, forensic or otherwise.
They were five men, ma'am.
Didn't you know that?
They were five?
The report says four. They've arrested four guys.
No. The fifth man was driving the car. He tried to stop the others.
Nikka?
I don't know his name.
I remember the names of two guys.
The man who dragged me into the car. He was the first one.
Sameer.
And the friend of the other four -
Harry. They called him "Harry."
Sameer was Harry's friend.
Sameer got out of the car first.
Sameer's name is nowhere.
- No, madam, I know nothing. - Talk!
Look over here!
- Talk! - Sameer?
- Tell me where she is. - I don't know any Sameer.
I'll rip you apart.
- You know Harry? - Who, sir?
Your name is Harjinder. Don't they call you "Harry"?
My name is Harender.
- Think she belongs to you? - Don't know Sameer?
- You like her, so you abduct her? - Never heard of any Sameer.
Get out of here!
I'll summon all your family.
Stop, sister! That's enough.
He'll talk. Stop for a minute! Take a deep breath.
These boys are lying.
Did you imagine they'd tell us the truth?
Your Honour, her statement was taken twice.
Her face was injured, so she couldn't talk properly.
ASI Vineeta-ji recorded the statement personally.
She heard "four boys".
She signed too.
If there was an objection, it would've been corrected.
Your Honour, it's a collective mistake.
We admit our error.
Has the fifth accused been identified?
No, Your Honour. The enquiry is on.
Has the other lab sent the DNA report?
Ma'am, it's been submitted.
The DNA doesn't match.
We're innocent, Your Honour.
The identification lineup has been scheduled.
We need custody till then. That's it.
The Prosecution has stated that the survivor is unable to see clearly.
Her sight is improving. I've submitted the doctor's report.
We're hopeful her sight will be fully restored in two weeks.
Subconjunctival hemorrhage, ma'am.
The blow to her head damaged her arteries.
The recovery time for each patient varies. It could take months.
Submitted three research papers. Annexure 3, ma'am.
Yes. Until then, Prosecution demands custody.
Ma'am, we also need to find the fifth accomplice.
The accused in custody can identity him.
Ma'am, not just one offender, Raavi-ji needs to find them all.
We've been questioned in detail, ma'am. Our car was stolen.
The four boys were at a wedding. The photos prove it. Please.
Release us!
Any photos of the man's car who gave them a lift?
Ma'am, who takes photos of a car?
When a car gets stolen, who goes to a wedding?
Well, some people have relations.
A stranger gave them a lift, otherwise...
Submit that man's ID cards, etc.
Ma'am, the trial has not begun, but it's amply clear -
we are also victims here.
They're young kids, ma'am.
Keeping them in custody will impact their future.
Their reputations, careers are at stake.
Please, please, save us.
Has the victim been provided security?
Are you the IO?
Yes, Your Honour.
- Is her husband present? - Yes.
- Have you been provided security? - Yes, ma'am.
If there's any problem, come straight to me. All right?
Ma'am, we pray for 14 days of judicial custody, please.
On what basis, Raavi-ji?
Two labs have checked the DNA,
and the results are clear.
There's a police report confirming the car was stolen,
and photos of them at the wedding.
The Defence is fully prepared, as you can see.
Show us some evidence too. Photos, ID cards?
Are the accused prepared to report to the police station every day?
100 percent, ma'am. Full faith, full cooperation.
Ma'am, the identification lineup is extremely crucial.
At least seven days of judicial custody, please.
So get it done, if you're ready.
At the earliest.
We're still waiting for the Tora Kheda station CCTV footage,
showing them filing the stolen car report at 8 p.m.
The police officer who wrote up the report? Summon him on Monday.
Bail granted with the following conditions.
I get it, why don't you understand?
I'm on my way to you.
I'm coming alone.
Coming. I'm coming straight to you.
I'm on my way.
Poonam... I'm nearly there.
Uncle, Shweta wants to get down at the lights.
Hello? Where are you?
Where are you?
You well?
Namaste, Aunty.
Don't want to.
Brother!
We missed you so much!
Come on, let's dance! No excuses.
Please, come on. It'll be fun! Come on!
What are you doing?
Don't interfere.
Come, son.
Take this.
- Take it and shoot me, Nikka. - No, no, no!
I'm talking to our son. Don't butt in.
Have you any idea how I managed to save your sister's engagement?
- No! No! - But no more.
Getting you bail was my responsibility,
now shoot me and handle the rest.
Just free me.
No!
It's not his fault. Someone stole his car.
I had his car stolen.
I spent many millions to save him.
Your sweet boy has raped a woman.
Papa, I didn't rape anyone.
But you were driving the car. You could've stopped and run.
Or jumped to your death.
You did not get the car stolen.
Never say that ever again.
I was only 19.
You weren't the husband I dreamed of.
But...
I never said a word, did I?
32 years.
I didn't make a home only to see you all die, one by one.
I stopped myself many times from taking my own life, Deepraaj-ji.
Today is my daughter's engagement.
So... no one will die today.
We all have to survive this.
Mother, my sweet mother
I miss you so
Mother, my sweet mother
I miss you so
At school I learned a new grammar for survival
The wind was mine, so was the world
Then tell me why did the wind rip away my veil
Enikku ninne ishtamaanu, Mama.
Mother, my sweet mother
I miss you so
Security. Court orders.
Will he pry into our home too?
Sana! Go inside.
Inside!
Look, brother,
if we don't do something, we'll be disgraced back home.
So, I'll get some boys to come from the village.
100,000 rupees will do it.
Start.
Wonderful!
At home we eat amazing aloo gobi,
kadhi pakode, rajma.
Give it to me.
Some pickle?
No one can beat your mummy's cooking. Can't touch it from a mile!
But her chhole-bhature are... so-so.
Right?
So that's why we eat chhole-bhature outside the house.
Everyone does it, at a certain age.
But...
...the home?
It must always be clean.
Totally clean.
Otherwise enjoy chhole-bhature at 60-rupees.
Chinese food, or dumplings. 90-rupees a plate.
Right?
There were four.
Driver...
Inside, they said...
They said, go.
They ripped my skirt.
I want to go back to teaching.
I need to. I'm ready.
But I'm not ready.
The school isn't ready.
I won't talk about the incident to anyone, ma'am, please.
The children are talking.
They'll forget, ma'am. Please.
They won't let you forget.
We don't even realise that children aren't children anymore.
What have we been doing in all these years?
What are we doing?
Debates. Medical. Career.
Dance. IIT.
What are we doing?
What's our plan? I don't know.
Can someone tell me?
- Can you? - I understand, ma'am.
I'll come from next week. We'll do it together, ma'am.
Please.
Please understand my side also.
These are jokes made by the students.
They're joking about what you had to endure. Jokes.
Class 9 students.
A boys WhatsApp group.
I took a screenshot.
There isn't just one group,
don't know how many.
They're making memes and cartoons.
How can I call you back? Huh?
Our school gets the best results.
But the whole school has failed.
Don't know where it's heading.
Sorry.
I'm not ready.
You two.
Parima, they'll come in, one by one.
They'll read a statement out loud. But they can't see us. OK?
If you want them to repeat the statement, they will.
Don't worry. We're right here.
OK.
I won't drive.
This is fun. This is fun.
She's enjoying it too.
Her eyes are closing.
Zoom in. Zoom down! Coward!
Is she your aunt or something?
She's enjoying it too.
Her eyes are closing.
Harry, control your friend.
We'll dump her somewhere.
Is she your aunt or something? She's safe, it's safe.
This is fun. She's enjoying it too.
I won't drive.
This is fun. She's enjoying it too.
Her eyes are closing.
She's safe, it's safe.
Sorry, ma'am.
I can't identify them.
They hurt my eyes.
I don't recognise any of them.
No, it's okay.
I am so sorry.
I failed myself.
Your Honour, Exhibit 16, 17, 18A, BC19
Annexure 12A, 35B, 68C.
- Well? - He's the SI from Tora Kheda station.
Harishchander.
Did you write up the stolen car report?
Yes.
Ma'am, he didn't bring the CCTV footage.
The man in charge of the CCTV is on holiday.
We don't have the password. He doesn't share it, madam.
Who else asks him for the password?
I don't know, madam.
- Phone him. - Pardon?
Phone him! Use the speaker.
Oh, sexy lady! Let me hug you...
That's enough.
Cancel his leave and get him back.
- Next hearing? - 22nd, madam.
You'll personally bring the pen drive on the 22nd.
Submit it here, OK?
Yes.
Continue.
- 68C and...? - 69D, ma'am.
Moving on is the only option at every turn.
For you and for me.
And now, for Parima.
Shall we go?
Don't you get scared?
Yes, I do.
What do you do when you're scared?
If I get scared, I grab hold of your hand!
Nice!
Come!
Give it to me.
Shall we buy a gun?
Bye, baby. Love you, my sweetheart!
Brother, wake up! Up!
What's happened?
What is it?
Harry's been murdered
at the spot where the woman was found.
Phone?
Where is it?
Where's my damn phone?
Swear on me, Bunty. You didn't do it, brother?
What are you talking about?
Listen to me.
Swear, you'll tell me the truth.
It just happened.
Save me. Please save me.
Save me, Shweta. Please, please, save me.
I did it. Save me.
I don't want to go.
No.
Please save me.
Our hero has come!
Everyone will be put in their place.
Release all the rapists in India on bail!
So the country's youth can step out with an umbrella!
We'll drag the scum out!
Justice will be done, guys!
- Umbrella Man... - Long live!
In our country, a rape is committed every 20 minutes.
Have a cup of tea. One rape.
Watch a film. Six rapes.
I say, give everyone an umbrella,
remind the scum,
besides the courts, justice can be served on the streets.
What do you suggest?
See, the online profile of the Umbrella Man.
He's amassed 28,000 followers in 2 days.
These 28,000 followers are ordinary citizens.
The democracy you're talking about is voted in by the people.
Umbrella Man, whoever you are,
Danger salutes you!
If you need anything,
just call me. I am at your service!
I have the weapons and the guts.
How can I personally provide security for your son?
You must file an official application. It's a long process.
Tell you what. Submit an application in court.
It's unsafe sending my only son to the station every day.
Can you send someone home?
He could meet Nikka here. So he wouldn't need to leave the house.
Navratan-ji, explain it to him.
Now what's this?
Please. We have done everything you asked of us.
Just respect the fact we've cooperated with you.
My primary duty is to respect the law.
I commented on the video that this is our future if vigilantes murder.
I've been trolled and insulted all day long.
Don't know how many accounts I've blocked.
Let me get a bigger bowl.
The men you defend aren't human.
I'm not defending them.
If you don't kill rapists, they'll invade every home.
So should we close the courts down?
Do courts really punish people?
- We both know the answer. - People aren't always punished.
Who decides the sentence a murderer should serve?
Kartik, if murdering is valid when seeking revenge,
then raping for revenge is valid, too.
Murder for this, rape for that. And so it goes on.
You talk about ordinary people. He's an ordinary man too.
I'm a tandoori chicken
Eat me whole with alcohol
Stick my photo on your chest with Fevicol
Comrade! When a bullet is fired, it can hit someone and he could die.
You're crazy. No bullets in this!
OK. Then fire!
People say I taste like salty butter...
I don't even know who was killed.
Was it one of them?
But it made me happy.
Someone dying is making me happy, Vinay.
I never wanted to feel like this.
Your Honour, this is no coincidence.
Harender Ghool's body was found at the same place where Victim X was found.
They're young citizens, ma'am.
And you can see in other cases too.
A man in custody was murdered outside a police station.
We're deeply traumatised.
Exempt us from these daily appearances. Ma'am, please.
No, no. They have to report every day.
I cannot change bail conditions without discussion.
Have you brought the CCTV footage?
Madam, this is Constable Balbir Tyagi.
He runs the IT department.
Go on.
Madam, I confirm, that on the 16th,
monkeys caused a power outage which lasted an hour.
The power went and came back. But our server went down, madam.
Have you brought the pen drive?
Insert it.
It's empty, madam.
We don't have the CCTV footage, madam.
The cameras were working, but when monkeys caused trouble,
five hours of footage went missing.
It says, "not retrievable".
Server problem, madam.
- Investigating Officer? - Yes, Your Honour.
Hurry up with the investigation. File the chargesheet.
We'll fast-track this case.
Yes, Your Honour.
Next.
State vs. Balwinder.
Saw the ATM we just passed?
We can see the car passing on the CCTV footage.
35 minutes later, their car stopped here.
They drank tea here.
My informer spoke to the tea-stall owner.
When I first came here, the owner had run off.
Right over there. The boys burned their clothes.
The clothes were burned here.
Sanjay.
The ATM is ten minutes away, right?
What were they doing for 25 minutes?
Nikka's father called this shopkeeper at 3 a.m.
25 minutes were spent here.
You questioned him?
I'll do it... my way.
Sanjay,
when did you last think Ashutosh was a despicable man?
Best change the subject, madam.
He's managing the case, right?
Everyone must make ends meet.
Tell me more.
He's married to my uncle's daughter, madam.
It's not just one episode. It's a whole series.
So let it drop, Sanjay.
Forget this one. After all, Parima is not related to you or me.
80 rapes that day.
She's only one out of 80.
Never mind.
It's getting hot. Let's go.
About the vigilante murders,
the tragedy is it shifts focus away from the original crime.
No one is talking about the rape, or the survivor now.
Everyone is talking about revenge.
Why are these crimes happening?
Who are these boys who turn into rapists? This is never discussed.
Think of a film plot. There's a rape...
In films, there's a rape,
the hero kills the two rapists, people clap. Problem over.
No! The problem doesn't end like that.
Rapes still happen and they'll keep happening.
You're just a frustrated criminal
looking for some attention. That's it.
What shall we do about this case?
Look, Raavi. There's a halfway solution.
If you like it, I can take it further, or else,
let's assume I came for tea.
You'll have to name everyone.
And tell us everything.
Then I'll talk further. Or else, face the investigation.
She's like a younger sister to me. It stays between us.
Nikka just fell into their trap.
- She knows he's innocent. - But he did help them.
Help them...?
I'm preparing the pardon application. Code 238...
If Nikka becomes a state witness, we'll go for 30 months.
But you agreed to 18.
Raavi-ji. Go for zero. He's my only son.
Name your price. Cash. White? Black? Anything.
Here, abroad. I'll get it to you.
Deepraaj-ji, one minute.
Let's close at 18 months. OK?
Please find a way out, quickly.
He can't be tried with the others.
Nikka's a kid. How long can he be forced to stay at home?
I'm going to see Vidhi.
Where will we find Sameer?
30 months.
All right.
I met Sameer for the first time that day.
Ghool asked me to pick up a friend. I didn't even talk to him.
Where did you pick him up?
At the Sahbi roundabout, there's a gym nearby.
You lowlife! Who are you to stop us entering the club?
Get lost, go!
Dara! Check your phone.
Phone.
Check your phone.
- Call an ambulance! - What's wrong?
Someone save him!
Madam! Case closed!
- Look, madam. - You're a dead man.
Our trump card.
Deepraaj-ji and I belong to the same village. He called me.
Talk about the clothes.
- I gave them trousers and shirts. - Present this in court.
This image? You and your gun?
- Forgive me, sir. - You can remove it with AI.
You can do it. The case is full of holes anyway, madam.
The DNA doesn't match. The victim can't identify anyone.
We're stuck.
That's what trauma does, Sanjay.
I end up having to protect rapists, madam.
Yes?
Yes, madam. Walk away!
You shouldn't be around in such circumstances.
I'll make another video now and send it to you. Red-hot!
I won't hold a gun this time, madam.
Get up!
Hey, Sanjay!
Sanjay! Let the shopkeeper go.
Let him go!
Let me go!
What are you doing, Sanjay?
Get up.
Now run!
Go!
What have you done?
How many times will you lose? How many, madam?
Her trauma story won't do you any favours in court.
You want to be a hero?
If you really want to be a hero, then out your colleagues!
At least once!
Why do you think you're the only ones to feel outrage?
We women are enraged.
If we could express our rage, you'd find half the world in ashes.
But we won't burn it down.
Hit 6, come on! Good!
1, 2, 3... well done. Good, good.
Madam, take his name and number.
The owner controls the CCTV. That's the rule.
Name your price.
He trusts me more than his own son. That's why I run the gym.
5,000.
Get the footage from him in two weeks.
10,000.
No, that won't help.
Let's close at 15,000.
15?
Entrance footage?
Hello, Raavi-ji. Keep walking.
Don't be scared. I need to talk to you for a moment.
In our world the umbrella is very important.
To evade... cameras.
Kartik is very angry.
He used to work for me, but,
I think he only listens to you now.
Poonam! Poonam, honey, listen to me.
Give me two minutes. I'm on my way. I'm leaving.
Sir, I have to go to the DN Mall.
I'm coming. Two minutes. I'm on my bike.
His girlfriend is leaving Delhi.
He wants to stop her. They're meeting behind the DN Mall.
Sir, come with me. Just don't be seen. Or she'll create hell.
You know girls.
Look.
An IP address from Nigeria has created the Umbrella Man's profile.
48,000 followers in two days.
Now it says who to kill and how.
Weapons are being decided.
A court has started on the Net.
Now anyone can kill,
as long as they have an umbrella,
then all is forgiven.
And everyone's a hero.
Who are you, Kartik?
Who are you?
The man who visits his friend's wife in hospital? Or the man at every hearing?
Or the man who didn't come to see his dying wife?
- I will not talk about Kaveri. - I'm talking about you.
Is it you?
Can you actually kill someone, Kartik?
Did you kill Nikka and Ghool?
Talk to me! Damn it. Say something.
Why did your Basu sir ask you to leave town? What have you done?
Tell me.
Speak up!
Ballu, I'm going home.
Listen to me, OK? Trust me, will you?
- Ballu, let go. - I've done nothing wrong.
No turning back in love, Poonam.
I should trust you? Let go of me.
You'll always be mine.
- Ballu, let go! - You dare think of anyone else!
Poonam, put the phone down! He's got a gun.
Poonam, stop! Put the camera down!
He'll kill you. Poonam, stop!
Sir, stop! Poonam, run!
Nikka had agreed to be a state witness. I spoke to him.
Kartik, there were only two people in my life.
Kaveri, who left this world alone, and there's you.
But you've created a monster. Within yourself, and in others.
People are so desperate, they often mistake a monster for a hero.
I warned Poonam. But she started recording him on her phone.
As if girls ever listen to anyone.
I had to run, sir. He came to shoot me.
Poonam and I were together for four years, sir. He killed her.
Hi, Vinay. I've found Sameer's address.
His daughter studies in Parima's school.
No, the problem is he hasn't come home for two weeks.
Savita, we need your help to find your husband Sameer.
Your help too.
500,000 rupees for each of you. All yours in half an hour.
My uncle is on his way. He could come straight to you.
Just say the word.
No big deal.
The girl is safe.
Shall I make it 600k a piece?
You're a man. You should understand.
Can it happen without a girl's consent? Is it even possible?
I tell you. Biology doesn't allow it.
Sir, shall we use the service lane?
Who ratted on Sameer?
Think she belongs to you?
I'm asking you.
Well...
You like her, so you abduct her?
I'll summon all your family.
An informer.
- Sister, welcome! - Oh, wow!
The house looks lovely since you painted it.
The doors are beautiful too.
Talk about that later. Now go inside.
- Brown curtains would look good. - White ones would look even better.
Why is your name on the witness list?
Couldn't you have called me before arresting Sameer?
Oho!
Mister is an honest fellow!
What do you think?
You paid for this two-storey palace on your salary?
Reading all that poetry will make your head explode.
You're a policeman, behave like one.
Get it?
And listen.
If this implicates me,
I'll tell them all about your past. Get it?
If you don't repeat your statement in court, word for word,
the other lawyer will trap you with his questions.
Then you'll get nervous and mess things up. OK?
The other one held my legs and pushed me into the car.
He slapped me.
And he ripped off my skirt and threw it out of the window.
80 rapes a day.
That's almost 30,000 rapes a year.
30,000 could fill a stadium.
I don't know. What's the meaning of winning in court?
What's the meaning of losing?
Your witness.
I'm...
I'm really very sorry about what happened to you.
And, I would like to tell you
how deeply we all care for you.
But I'm a little confused on the question of memory.
Tell me.
How much do you remember about the day of the rape?
I remember everything.
I've given a statement six times. Memorised it 22 times.
At about 10.30 at night, I came out of the metro station alone...
- My house is... - No, no, please, please.
Please. If you don't mind.
Don't repeat the written statement.
I need... to know some exact details.
So that
you may get justice.
That we get justice. Yeah?
They were counting.
Who could... last the longest...
Yes, that's it.
This point is making me confused.
126.
Exact number?
Specific detail.
That means you were fully conscious.
What is the meaning of being conscious, sir?
Well,
it means that
you can see and hear who is doing what.
There was a triangular shaped thing in the corner of the car.
I kept staring at it for two and a half hours.
That means you were able to see well.
Why were they laughing, sir?
To be noted, ma'am.
At that time you had no problem hearing or seeing.
Objection. Argumentative.
Overruled.
"Save water for the planet."
That's what I was teaching that morning to the 9th standard...
Now I can remember, sir.
Never mind that. That is not relevant.
But you see...
there are many discrepancies in your statement.
For example...
Yes, here.
On the question of the blue skirt.
The skirt that the police found on the street.
It wasn't torn.
Though you said
it was ripped off you.
We'll have to check again to see
whether it was indeed torn, or was the drawstring untied...
Objection, ma'am. What kind of line of questioning is this?
- I'll stop him when necessary. - There is discrepancy, ma'am.
I loved flowers.
A bouquet of flowers was lying in the car near my head that night.
Now...
the aroma of flowers scare me,
my hands shake.
I feel like burning something,
or running far away.
There are discrepancies.
In fact, too many.
Are you all right?
I insist again. Let's continue in camera.
No, no.
We've talked about it. She will continue.
OK, fine.
I'll try again.
You were late leaving the school that night. Why?
There was a farewell party for Manpreet.
Ah yes, the party!
I remember. I saw the videos of the party.
Very open and friendly.
Quite fun!
Objection. Relevance?
Sustained.
Was alcohol served?
Objection. Relevance?
Let him ask.
They served beer. Did you drink any?
No.
To be noted, ma'am. She was fully conscious that day.
But yet you could not identify any of the five accused? Right?
Yes.
Out of these five accused, two are not with us anymore -
God bless them.
You did not see or hear any of the accused in the act?
Objection. Argumentative.
She could not see their faces under the streetlights.
She was in shock. Trauma impacts.
Overruled.
So according to you,
A, B, C, D, E did not rape you.
- Objection... - I don't remember their faces.
How can one forget a face in such circumstances?
Has such a thing ever happened to you?
Raavi-ji! Decorum, please.
Sorry.
OK. I'll clarify.
The men you saw in the identification lineup,
did any of them rape you?
I'm not sure.
So you do not recognise A, B, C, D or E?
You're sure of that. Right?
I am not even sure who I am, sir.
I know I have a small scar on my face now.
But yesterday when I looked into the mirror,
I couldn't recognise my face.
Everything has changed inside.
Yet on the outside I look the same in the mirror.
Under what section of law does that come under, sir?
Your Honour,
the streetlights, the trauma - the fault lies elsewhere.
She cannot recognise them. I feel sorry for her, but that's her fault.
For her fault, must three innocents pay?
It is my fault, ma'am,
I wanted to be a teacher.
Now I'm standing here.
It was sheer stupidity. It's my fault.
How did I dare to go out alone, ma'am? That, too, at night!
My mother told me many times when I was young
that I must not go out alone.
Never without a man.
The boys I've taught for 6 years
Were 9 when I started.
One of them wrote in a WhatsApp group:
"Why wasn't I invited that day?"
There, in that car.
They are like my children, ma'am.
He's my student.
I'm entirely at fault. Hang me!
My sympathies with the lady.
But the fact is -
she's not accusing us at all.
They're angry you're against the vigilante who's serving justice.
Ma'am,
they're talking about your past, about how you defended a sex offender.
"Stey faar! The Umbrella Man fan."
Are you stressed about the trolls?
Look at the note.
They don't know English or Hindi. That stresses me out more.
Yet they know right from wrong.
The tragedy is it shifts focus away from the original crime.
Maybe. Maybe not.
She is definitely sticking her neck out.
Sir, this is the age of Social Media.
You never talked like this, nor did I.
She's telling the truth. Honestly I am worried for her.
We should all be worried for her.
One tea.
Sat Sri Akal! She's my daughter.
Everything OK now?
See you.
- Raavi-ji. - Yes?
Long live the Umbrella Man!
I'm sorry, Raavi.
Give her some tissues.
No, thank you, ma'am, let's proceed.
Do you want some time? To clean yourself.
How many times can I do that, ma'am?
This is just how it'll be.
There's another court on the streets.
I've been punished for what I say and do.
Thank goodness it was only ink. It could've been acid.
I'd like to proceed, ma'am, if you may allow.
Yeah.
Ma'am, the Defense claims the car was stolen.
A police report was filed.
But we cannot find the CCTV footage showing when the report was filed.
Monkeys had damaged the power cables.
I accept.
The car was stolen,
their phones were stolen, their wallets were stolen.
Yet attending the wedding was a must.
They got a lift, struggled onto a bus,
and landed up at the wedding.
I accept.
We have photos to prove it.
But they were taken after the wedding ceremony.
The photos were taken at dawn.
Maybe they didn't have the time earlier.
I accept.
The survivor's DNA sample does not match the DNA of the accused men.
I accept.
The survivor is unable to identify the offenders.
I accept.
So what's to be done, ma'am?
Case closed.
Yesterday I got a case concerning an 8-year-old girl.
I'll present it to you tomorrow. We can close that case in the same way?
She's a homeless girl. She lives on the pavement.
There's no way she can identify the offender. No evidence, nothing.
Objection.
Irrelevant.
I agree.
It's irrelevant.
I also agree, ma'am.
Irrelevant.
You asked me to submit ID cards, or whatever I could find,
so I have them here.
Let me try again.
Exhibit 17A.
In this photo,
your brother is standing in the middle.
He's wearing a floral shirt.
Have you seen him wear this shirt before?
Sometimes.
On oath you said that Bunty wore this shirt to the wedding.
Yes, ma'am.
Ma'am, a woman is testifying.
So I'd prefer to trust her over an internet account.
Accused B's internet account, Exhibit 18
shows that he attended about ten weddings in the past year.
He has three suits, he wears them alternatively.
Otherwise he usually wears a T-shirt.
But on that one day, he wore his floral shirt.
I accept.
Shweta, have you ever...
Objection, ma'am.
Argumentative.
- We're all free to wear what we want. - Of course, I accept.
So Shweta, have you seen
his black T-shirt with the word "Sky" on it? Is it at home?
Accused A's father, Deepraaj-ji,
called you on the 16th, past midnight. Around 3 a.m.
What did he say?
It was a mistake call.
I kept saying hello, but all I could hear was snoring.
How long did you listen to his snoring?
I didn't look at my watch.
10 seconds? 20, 30, 40. 50?
Four minutes, ma'am.
Exhibit 26, call records.
The call lasted 245 seconds.
Manbhar, do you sell floral shirts in your highway shop?
- They're for sale in all shops. - Completely unrelated, ma'am.
Must be a coincidence! Right? I accept.
Kabool Singh-ji.
Madam, all forensic evidence is kept in a special room,
to produce in court.
That room must be locked, Kabool Singh-ji.
Yes.
And the lock must have a key.
Yes.
So whoever has the key can open the door.
- No, madam. It's not... - Wait a minute.
What are you insinuating?
This is a great day, ma'am. So many speculations!
I agree.
Ma'am, my next witness is ASI Sanjay Narwal.
Sanjay-ji, the Umbrella Man has murdered three people.
Could it be the same man?
I don't know.
Was he right?
Absolutely not.
Does the idea of rape trouble you?
Absolutely it does. It's barbaric.
What if someone interferes with the process of justice?
Sanjay-ji, the DNA samples were swapped.
I hear monkeys were wreaking havoc. So what do we do?
I strongly object, Your Honour. This is again a random speculation.
And no leading questions, please.
Sustained.
I am sorry about the ink. But, please!
Sanjay-ji...
Is the police tampering with the evidence?
Objection. Leading again!
Raavi-ji.
Your father is a Hindi teacher.
Just see where poet Kabir's philosophy has ended up.
You're a witness to it all.
I need your help, sir.
You left your Uday Prakash-ji's book of poetry with me by mistake.
I read the poem "After Death."
Ma'am, so we're now at a literature festival, ma'am!
Irrelevant!
Let's hear the poem, Navratan-ji. It is relevant.
Ma'am, please may I?
One should hear poetry. Sometimes one can understand it.
Thank you.
"After dying, a man does not speak.
"After dying, a man does not think.
"If he does not speak or does not think, a man dies."
Sanjay-ji, can the survivor's DNA samples be swapped?
The newspapers say they can.
And in your experience?
What's that got to do with anything, ma'am?
- It's possible. - In this case?
I have no idea.
This is wonderful, Your Honour!
Perfect!
Float an idea through a poem, and it becomes a possibility!
Hearsay!
And who is talking?
A police officer who has three pending investigations,
and his department has been alerted to his bribe-taking.
I'm sorry, but he has forced me to speak up.
I am glad you spoke.
For days, I've been wanting to jump from my roof terrace and die.
Today you've pushed me in public to jump.
Thank you.
Madam, I've been wading through slush.
My fancy flat in Rohini was not affordable on my salary.
I loved poetry.
These days poetry does not help you clear the competitive exam.
So I got a job doing baton charge. It messed up my principles.
I've accepted 10,000, 20,000 many times.
But I've always drawn a line.
Yeah, sure!
Your Honour, he must be investigated.
No more questions from our side.
Have the samples been swapped in this case?
The DNA samples taken from the girl on the day of the assault
were destroyed.
The DNA that was tested wasn't hers.
The samples can never match.
Have you any proof?
What proof, Navratan-ji?
The monkeys ate up the Tora Kheda CCTV footage,
and you want more proof?
One minute!
Were you involved in this process?
No, ma'am. I found out later.
Who asked you to have the DNA swapped?
My uncle's daughter got married.
But some other uncle's daughter got raped.
ASI Sanjay, this is a very serious allegation.
Have you any evidence to back up your statement?
I don't have any evidence.
So why should the court trust you?
There's no need to.
Up to you, ma'am. It's your trial.
I'm going now, Kartik.
No need to rush now.
Come when it's easy.
This Raavi keeps crying.
She cries quietly.
She doesn't look good crying.
Really, she's a good kid, Kartik.
Look after her, my love.
I'm going now.
If you walk away from this car,
I can no longer help you.
So be it, sir.
People are calling me a hero.
But I feel more like a monster.
Killing is never heroic.
Ever.
So why did you send me abroad, sir?
- To kill? - No.
To save. Our people.
But still to kill.
That was necessary. But it wasn't heroic.
By that logic, this is even more necessary.
The house had fallen to ruin, and I was painting an outside wall.
- Kartik, there's a system! - System, sir?
In the time you were stuck in traffic, another rape has probably taken place,
as per our own data.
If I'm not jailed, I won't be able to stop myself.
I must be stopped.
Who do you want to kill?
The rapists? Or Kaveri's killers?
Or the man who wasn't with his wife in her dying moments?
In the world we created, Basu sir,
there was so much more we could've done, but we didn't.
It could have been even worse.
- Why are all these children here? - They are the witness's school mates.
It's a very sensitive case.
We cannot talk openly in front of children.
Ma'am.
They're aware of everything. They're at the receiving end too.
Children are anyway watching.
Navratan-ji?
I'm fine, Your Honour. I'm fine!
OK.
She's a 12-year child.
Daughter of the fifth accused.
Sameer is accused of starting the assault.
Sameer was the first.
And then he got out of the car.
While the others kept driving around with the survivor.
I woke up at around 11 p.m.
I could see a small fire burning.
It was Papa. He was burning his clothes.
A maroon shirt. His favourite shirt.
I could see marks on his neck and face.
They looked like scratches.
Did you question him the next morning?
No.
Ma'am, at 9.28 p.m., accused E
was picked up outside a gym, near the Sahbi roundabout
by the four others.
Their car number cannot be seen on CCTV.
But while the others were waiting for accused E to exit the gym,
accused B can be seen buying cigarettes.
If they were filing the report at Tora Kheda police station,
and then attending a wedding 45 kms away,
they could not have been at Sahbi roundabout at 9.28 p.m.
Defence, do you want to cross-examine?
Yes, Your Honour.
Yes, Jaibir?
He wants to surrender, sir.
He says he's murdered two boys.
He says he is the Umbrella Man.
Arrest him and bring him to the Magistrate's court.
Do you think your father is capable of rape?
Objection, ma'am.
Why, Navratan-ji?
Madam, there's no evidence.
These are mere allegations.
Yet she posted photos with her father on internet, before and after the 16th.
So it's important we know
why she, out of the blue, she claimed she saw him burning his clothes.
What made her suddenly suspicious?
I did see him. He was burning his clothes.
Then tell me.
Is it true that you and your classmates
were caught in class dancing to "Come, let's kiss"?
What's this line of questioning, ma'am?
You were suspended from school for two days.
- Your parents are called in every week. - Ma'am, this can't happen.
You told your friends your father slapped you.
Then this lady met you.
Your bio reads: "I am a rebel."
So you thought, "Let's teach father a lesson".
- Ma'am, how can you allow this? - Objection sustained.
I want to know
if you think your father committed rape?
How'd she know?
She's just a strong circumstantial witness, Navratan-ji.
Have you proof your father could commit rape?
Or he raped that night?
Objection, ma'am.
Ma'am, not all men are rapists.
Burning clothes doesn't imply raping someone.
And ma'am, please, let me cross-examine in peace.
- But not like this! - I'm asking pertinent questions.
Would you ask your daughter such questions?
You're getting personal.
I am being personal. Someone has to get personal.
Calm down, both of you!
My dear, think carefully, and tell me.
Do you think
your father came home that night after raping someone?
Objection, ma'am.
Tell me, my dear.
If this carries on,
her testimony must be removed from the records.
She'll pay a high price for all this.
We don't get out of this unscarred, ma'am.
Tell me, my dear.
- Don't say a word. - Objection, Your Honour.
- Did your father rape someone that night? - You may come down.
I don't know about that day, but he's done it before.
Don't say any more.
- No... - She cannot come between my witness.
He did it to Mummy.
Raavi-ji, your closing argument.
Yes, ma'am.
The Prosecution wants all three accused
to serve life imprisonment.
That's it.
Defence, your closing argument.
Yes, Your Honour.
Your Honour, on a positive note,
thankfully in the modern world,
science is on our side.
Raavi-ji, any rejoinder?
Ma'am, six-month-old girls are being raped.
What can I possibly add in a rejoinder that'll give them justice?
That justice will be served to them? Or they get some compensation.
We see thousands of children sleeping on the streets.
What they must endure...
Punishment alone isn't serving justice, ma'am.
Justice will be served when...
I don't think it can be served in this court.
Justice will be served when my friend,
who exits a metro station at night, can get home safe and sound.
And the jokes that circulate make her laugh too.
Ma'am, somewhere in the past we took a very wrong turning.
There are children in this courtroom.
Let us pause.
Let us think.
Our survivor could've possibly been saved from this crime.
If, 13 years ago, a court like this had served justice
to Savita, this child's mother.
13 years ago, there was a case filed against accused E.
Trial dates were set.
But the fear of a scandal! What would people say!
Both families told the court
the girl had signed and withdrawn her case.
Out of court settlement.
Her rapist became her husband.
Savita has lived over 4000 days with that criminal.
She fasts for his good health,
attends family functions as his wife.
She sees her daughter call him "Papa".
Ma'am, I was there when her daughter learned of all this two days ago.
What justice could we serve them?
I'm sorry, but neither of us are in a position to give them justice.
That case number 1235/2012 was closed,
saying justice was done.
Ma'am, I request you,
before pronouncing verdict,
think of all the survivors,
who are perhaps unable to bring their cases to court,
or may not be able to even file a police report.
So, perhaps from fear, they settle out of court.
On the same day of this incident, 80 rapes were reported in the country.
Trials have not even started of 76 cases.
They become a number on page 8, but they are not numbers, ma'am.
They are living and breathing human beings.
Subhash Nagar, name X, aged 5 months,
raped by a hospital doctor.
Rewa, name X, aged 11,
raped by her schoolteacher.
Jalore, name X, aged 16,
raped at home by her cousin brother.
Sirsa, name X, aged 24, the factory owner...
Pune, name X, aged 80,
raped by two minors in a moving bus.
That's all. Ma'am.
Your Honour, this is his first remand application.
He gave himself in.
Two days, police custody.
You both have covered much ground.
But my job is to decide, based on what is clear to me.
And I can see only one chain of events on that night.
The car was not stolen.
Bunty Kumar, Balraj Singh, Sameer Kaasa.
Their actions and circumstantial evidence proves
that they abducted and raped the victim.
ASI Sanjay Narwal, SI Ashutosh Katariya,
Inspector Harishchandra, and Head Constable Balbir Tyagi.
I am instructing their departments to investigate them.
Quantum of punishment for the three accused,
and detailed judgement will be pronounced tomorrow.
And kids...
do well.
Do better than us.
Come on.
Kartik!
Hold it. Don't fire!
Deepraaj, don't fire!
Call an ambulance!
Kartik!
Kartik, no!
- Let go! - Deepraaj!
The scum can't be spared.
Let go of me!
Get his gun!
Kartik!
- Deepraaj! - He's a child killer!
Help!
If you're a man, face me.
Ambulance!
Children, hurry, move away from here.
No!
Help! Help! Ambulance!
Kartik!
I have my wings back
Took a while but I'm back
