WEBVTT

01:12.146 --> 01:22.021
'Long is this night of sorrows
Or long is my mournful song.'

01:24.355 --> 01:29.605
'This wicked night has no end
Nor does the flow of my song.'

01:30.480 --> 01:31.521
What say, Shivy?

01:32.105 --> 01:32.980
Sir?

01:34.480 --> 01:38.063
He's a bachelor, sir.
He doesn't understand the pain.

01:38.771 --> 01:40.938
Laugh it up while you can.

01:41.313 --> 01:42.896
I’m getting engaged.

01:44.105 --> 01:45.355
This time it’s for real, sir.

01:47.980 --> 01:51.146
Fourth time sir, same story.

01:52.146 --> 01:53.438
Answer me this…

01:53.771 --> 01:56.813
Will you arrive at your wedding
on a horse or a police jeep?

01:57.230 --> 01:58.980
A horse of course, sir.

01:59.271 --> 02:01.271
Then what’s the point of being a cop?

02:01.938 --> 02:04.146
Sir, if I show up in a police jeep,

02:04.355 --> 02:06.480
It’ll look like I’ve come to take away
a terrorist instead of a bride.

02:06.813 --> 02:08.438
Perfect.

02:08.813 --> 02:11.771
Your bride will stay in line just
like a terrorist.

02:14.980 --> 02:15.980
How much longer?

02:16.688 --> 02:19.230
Two more pegs, that's all.

02:21.980 --> 02:23.146
Then make another stiff one.

02:25.021 --> 02:26.938
Where’s your bride-to-be from, anyway?

02:27.313 --> 02:28.188
Dharamshala...

02:28.813 --> 02:29.855
From Himachal.

02:30.730 --> 02:32.105
A purebred Sardarni.

02:32.355 --> 02:34.438
Attaboy!

02:35.563 --> 02:36.270
Sir...

02:36.271 --> 02:37.938
Just mount that horse and show him.

02:38.521 --> 02:44.521
He’ll be digging canals of whiskey from Tarn Taran to
Dharamshala for your wedding.

02:51.230 --> 02:52.730
Stop the car.

03:13.146 --> 03:14.855
Come on, step out.

03:15.355 --> 03:17.605
Sir, please, no!
Sir, please...

03:17.813 --> 03:18.813
Come on.

03:19.730 --> 03:22.230
Come on!
- Please, sir!

03:23.355 --> 03:24.813
Sit! On your knees!

03:28.271 --> 03:28.855
Name?

03:29.521 --> 03:30.646
Nihaal Singh.

03:31.396 --> 03:32.396
Age?

03:32.896 --> 03:33.938
Nineteen.

03:34.480 --> 03:35.605
Village?

03:36.271 --> 03:37.105
Bhikhiwind.

03:39.271 --> 03:40.896
Bhi… Bhikhiwind.

03:49.355 --> 03:50.105
Your name?

03:51.980 --> 03:55.020
Sir, please, let me go, sir.
Forgive me, sir.

03:55.021 --> 03:58.521
Get back! Come on!
- Quiet! Sit back!

04:01.313 --> 04:03.188
Here… do it.

04:04.605 --> 04:05.688
Me?

04:06.438 --> 04:07.896
No sir, how can I…?

04:08.063 --> 04:09.771
Shut up and do it.

04:11.313 --> 04:13.771
No sir, my job isn’t even permanent yet.

04:14.938 --> 04:17.438
We’ll make you permanent, rookie.

04:17.771 --> 04:19.313
Let's see if you can pull the trigger first.

04:19.980 --> 04:22.271
No sir, I won’t be able to…

04:22.688 --> 04:23.438
No…

04:23.938 --> 04:25.313
Fire the damn gun!

04:27.896 --> 04:28.730
Attaboy!

04:30.021 --> 04:30.813
Go on...

04:31.688 --> 04:33.396
Load them back in the car.

04:35.105 --> 04:37.021
Go on then… get to work.

04:37.438 --> 04:38.438
- Tell me this...

04:38.563 --> 04:40.355
When’s the date?

04:41.146 --> 04:43.229
Haven’t set a date yet, sir.

04:43.230 --> 04:44.480
No?
- No, sir.

04:45.230 --> 04:46.230
The thing is…

04:47.730 --> 04:49.355
Sir, the girl has a condition.

04:51.271 --> 04:54.271
She says she won't marry me
till I make Inspector.

04:57.230 --> 04:58.521
Bless her.

04:59.855 --> 05:02.271
How many you got left to make Inspector?

05:04.105 --> 05:05.146
Sir, two…

05:05.688 --> 05:07.355
You done?
- Yes.

05:09.021 --> 05:10.271
Hold this.

05:14.480 --> 05:18.938
'May I never deviate from doing a good deed'

05:19.855 --> 05:20.688
There!

05:21.605 --> 05:22.855
You're an inspector now.

05:24.896 --> 05:26.896
Get the postmortem done
and mount that horse.

05:30.938 --> 05:33.521
'1995, Punjab… '

05:35.271 --> 05:37.855
A north Indian state around the river Satluj,

05:39.230 --> 05:42.771
which has been in a state of insurgency
for over ten years.

05:45.980 --> 05:50.563
The constant tension between the police and
the militants had exhausted Punjab.

05:52.688 --> 05:55.688
While the police force was trying to
eliminate militancy,

05:56.521 --> 06:00.063
a few police officers were taking full
advantage of this opportunity.

06:01.771 --> 06:04.771
They stopped distinguishing between
militants and civilians,

06:05.896 --> 06:08.313
and the people of Punjab were caught
in the crossfire.

06:10.105 --> 06:12.063
The fields had turned barren.

06:13.688 --> 06:15.980
Leaves had dried up.

06:18.563 --> 06:21.063
In this time of terror by uniform,

06:22.188 --> 06:24.230
even rivers had changed their course.

06:33.146 --> 06:35.813
Floating corpses are like floating pages of history.

06:36.563 --> 06:38.188
They never become statistics.

06:38.980 --> 06:40.605
They fill up with water.

06:41.313 --> 06:42.896
They drown...

06:43.896 --> 06:48.855
... taking justice, hope and history down with them.

06:58.021 --> 07:02.396
'Verse chanting'

07:02.521 --> 07:05.104
Very good! And what does it mean?

07:05.105 --> 07:09.605
'O Lord, give me the strength
So I may never deviate from doing good deeds.'

07:09.813 --> 07:11.063
Excellent!

07:14.438 --> 07:17.438
Here you go.
And distribute them to your friends. Okay?

07:17.605 --> 07:18.812
Kiran!

07:18.813 --> 07:21.396
Coming mummy!

07:21.938 --> 07:23.855
Come on, hurry up.

07:24.980 --> 07:25.896
Give me this.

07:26.396 --> 07:28.230
Let’s go, you’ll get me in trouble too.

07:28.771 --> 07:31.146
Your grandparents are also
coming this evening.

07:31.271 --> 07:32.146
Kiran!

07:32.396 --> 07:34.021
We’re here, we’re here.

07:34.188 --> 07:37.188
Hurry up, Kiran! You’ll make everyone late again.

07:40.688 --> 07:42.313
Don’t forget to -
- bring the cake.

07:43.188 --> 07:43.813
Let’s go…

07:44.021 --> 07:45.646
Bye.
- Bye.

07:51.896 --> 07:53.230
It’s not possible, uncle.

07:54.355 --> 07:57.063
The bank has already loaned you
twice against this property.

07:57.813 --> 07:58.896
We're desperate.

08:00.188 --> 08:03.438
Please help us if you can, just this time.

08:04.605 --> 08:06.230
But how will you return these loans?

08:07.480 --> 08:09.396
You could lose your entire home.

08:10.063 --> 08:11.230
We have only one son.

08:12.521 --> 08:13.855
Sukhdev Singh.

08:14.438 --> 08:16.646
He’s been missing for five months.

08:17.188 --> 08:19.521
They say this time he’ll come home.

08:20.355 --> 08:23.021
But aunty…
- Please don’t ask anything more, son.

08:23.688 --> 08:24.771
For God’s sake.

08:26.021 --> 08:27.938
We can’t tell you anything.

08:34.605 --> 08:35.855
I’ll try.

08:41.355 --> 08:42.271
Send Mr. Amrik in.

08:42.562 --> 08:43.896
Sir, Mr. Amrik Singh didn’t
come in today either.

08:44.355 --> 08:45.605
What?
- Yes, sir.

08:50.938 --> 08:52.855
Give this to the head clerk.
- Yes, sir.

08:52.980 --> 08:54.896
Tell him I sent you.
- Yes, sir.

08:56.521 --> 08:58.146
Please go with him, it’ll be taken care of.

09:00.438 --> 09:02.021
Thank you, son.

09:03.355 --> 09:04.646
Bless you, son.

09:05.021 --> 09:05.938
Bless you.

09:07.396 --> 09:08.063
Hello…

09:08.688 --> 09:11.021
Looks like your parents won’t
be coming this evening.

09:12.188 --> 09:12.938
Why, what happened?

09:13.396 --> 09:14.563
No idea.

09:14.896 --> 09:16.980
But he sounded worried.

09:17.521 --> 09:19.480
Could you talk to him?

09:20.188 --> 09:21.396
Okay.

09:41.146 --> 09:44.146
It’s been a week now. Nobody’s seen her.

09:44.980 --> 09:46.605
God knows where she went.

09:46.896 --> 09:49.438
Did you file a police report?

09:50.396 --> 09:52.146
We tried to, son.

09:52.730 --> 09:55.355
But cops don't take anyone’s reports these days.

09:56.813 --> 09:58.438
We scoured the entire village,

09:58.771 --> 10:00.271
but nobody knows anything.

10:00.688 --> 10:03.688
We’ve sent word to the neighbouring
villages as well.

10:04.105 --> 10:05.313
Don’t worry, son.

10:05.563 --> 10:07.688
You head home. It’s getting late.

10:07.980 --> 10:10.480
It’s Kiran’s birthday, she’ll be waiting.

10:11.063 --> 10:12.146
Don’t worry.

10:12.688 --> 10:13.730
We’re all here, aren’t we?

10:14.813 --> 10:15.813
Go…

11:17.646 --> 11:18.563
Jassi!

11:18.980 --> 11:19.980
Jassi!

11:20.938 --> 11:22.355
Jassi!

11:22.605 --> 11:24.855
Mindro, open the door!

11:25.021 --> 11:29.438
Aunty?
- Jassi! Let me in, son. Open the door!

11:30.563 --> 11:31.396
What happened?
- Jassi!

11:31.730 --> 11:33.605
Kirpal never listens to me.

11:33.896 --> 11:36.145
You're his friend, right?
You make him understand!

11:36.146 --> 11:39.146
Gurpej... what happened?
- Mindro!

11:39.313 --> 11:41.979
Mindro! I've told him so many times...

11:41.980 --> 11:45.813
"Come inside, come inside.
You'll catch a cold."

11:46.146 --> 11:47.646
But he doesn't listen.

11:47.813 --> 11:48.938
What happened?

11:49.063 --> 11:53.646
Brother! You come with me.
Talk some sense into him. He'll listen to you.

11:54.230 --> 11:55.646
Children these days...

11:56.271 --> 11:58.645
They never listen to anyone!

11:58.646 --> 12:01.021
He'll catch a cold.

12:01.938 --> 12:04.480
He's drenched from head to toe.

12:05.063 --> 12:05.896
Who?

12:07.480 --> 12:10.312
Kirpal! He's lying there in the street!

12:10.313 --> 12:11.438
My Kirpal!
- Jassi!

12:50.521 --> 12:51.646
Kirpal!

12:54.938 --> 12:56.146
Kirpal!

13:40.146 --> 13:41.646
Jassi, brother? Hello!

13:42.021 --> 13:42.771
Greetings.

13:42.938 --> 13:44.646
Ma... Jassi's here.

13:46.605 --> 13:48.271
Greetings, aunty.
- Greetings.

13:48.480 --> 13:50.313
How are you?
- Bless you.

13:50.605 --> 13:52.605
It's been a while, Jassi.

13:53.438 --> 13:54.646
I came to meet Satnam.

13:55.188 --> 13:56.104
Is he home?

13:56.105 --> 14:00.188
No… He hasn’t been home since
he got his new posting.

14:00.480 --> 14:01.605
It’s been 4 days now.

14:02.646 --> 14:04.270
You tell me... Pammi's fine?

14:04.271 --> 14:05.188
Yes.

14:05.730 --> 14:07.188
Dilbag!
- Yes?

14:07.396 --> 14:11.521
Get some water for Jassi.
And get him some sweets.

14:11.938 --> 14:12.896
Yes, right away...

14:13.188 --> 14:15.688
Finish this quickly, I’ll be right back.

14:15.896 --> 14:17.938
Dilbag got posted in Chandigarh.

14:18.063 --> 14:18.980
He’s leaving today.

14:19.771 --> 14:21.521
That’s why Jimmy is so upset.

14:21.896 --> 14:23.480
Hasn’t eaten anything since morning.

14:25.146 --> 14:27.021
What’s your business with the police?

14:28.438 --> 14:30.688
It’s… Aunty Gurpej.

14:31.855 --> 14:33.188
You must have heard…

14:33.563 --> 14:34.063
Yes.

14:35.521 --> 14:38.021
I saw her about a week ago...

14:38.771 --> 14:41.563
... serving at the Gurudwara.

14:42.438 --> 14:45.313
Poor woman’s been all alone
since Kirpal’s death.

14:45.896 --> 14:48.896
So long as she remembers Kirpal’s no more,

14:49.105 --> 14:50.646
she stays fine.

14:51.063 --> 14:52.188
But when she forgets,

14:52.688 --> 14:55.688
she wanders into police stations
looking for him.

14:57.355 --> 14:59.271
She’s lost her bearings, poor thing.

15:00.771 --> 15:01.855
But don’t you worry.

15:02.396 --> 15:03.813
She’ll be back.

15:04.438 --> 15:06.521
Here, have some jaggery.

15:10.980 --> 15:13.313
There's a grimness in the air, son.

15:14.563 --> 15:16.438
Who knows when this season will pass.

15:29.438 --> 15:30.896
Got quite late?

15:32.438 --> 15:33.396
Found out anything?

15:35.063 --> 15:36.355
Not yet.

15:39.605 --> 15:41.396
She was waiting for you.

15:43.313 --> 15:44.938
Wouldn’t even cut the cake.

15:47.146 --> 15:48.480
You’re still up?

15:49.688 --> 15:52.188
Had to prepare a list of books for the library.

15:52.730 --> 15:54.188
Thought I might as well do that.

15:55.730 --> 15:56.688
I’ll take that.

16:02.105 --> 16:03.271
I’ll get you some dinner?

16:05.563 --> 16:06.438
No.

16:15.855 --> 16:16.813
Kids asleep?

16:17.188 --> 16:18.230
They just slept.

16:42.105 --> 16:43.646
Happy birthday, darling.

16:57.730 --> 16:59.105
What's on your mind?

17:00.230 --> 17:01.605
Can't sleep?

17:05.230 --> 17:08.063
I'm thinking what Kirpal would do
if he was in my place.

17:10.063 --> 17:13.020
He would also do what you're thinking.

17:23.770 --> 17:26.563
Congratulations, congratulations!

17:26.770 --> 17:29.062
Happy birthday and promotion on the same day.

17:29.063 --> 17:34.105
At this speed, Mr. Inspector will
be married by next week.

17:35.646 --> 17:39.770
The DSP's blue eyed boy, his blue eyed boy.

17:39.771 --> 17:41.271
That's enough!

17:41.938 --> 17:43.771
Distribute it to everyone.
- Yes sir!

17:44.813 --> 17:45.688
Congratulations, sir.

17:46.063 --> 17:48.313
Go on, have some cake.
- Congratulations, sir.

17:50.855 --> 17:51.855
Greetings.

17:56.271 --> 17:57.021
Right...

17:57.188 --> 17:59.146
At your service.
- Hello.

18:01.521 --> 18:02.771
We need to file a report.

18:04.188 --> 18:06.271
This is Bibi Gurpej Kaur, from Khalra.

18:06.521 --> 18:08.521
She's been missing for a week.

18:09.146 --> 18:10.146
What's she to you?

18:10.521 --> 18:11.896
She's my friend's mother.

18:15.896 --> 18:17.396
Gurpej Kaur Bannowal.

18:20.938 --> 18:22.730
Kirpal Singh Bannowal's mother, isn't she?

18:25.771 --> 18:26.771
That terrorist's.

18:27.730 --> 18:29.146
A mother's a mother, sir...

18:29.896 --> 18:32.688
Be it a rebel's, or a cop's.

18:33.605 --> 18:35.105
When the crop is bad...

18:37.105 --> 18:39.021
... the rot is in the roots.

18:40.855 --> 18:42.605
Wherever the rot may be...

18:44.313 --> 18:46.105
... it's still the farmer's own farm, isn't it?

18:48.313 --> 18:50.438
Here you go... have some cake.

18:51.063 --> 18:52.105
Go on, have some.

18:53.355 --> 18:55.021
Just file our report, please.

18:58.438 --> 18:59.855
Take some of our cake...

19:01.771 --> 19:03.230
... and we'll take your report.

19:10.355 --> 19:11.355
What’s her name?

19:11.521 --> 19:12.771
Bibi Gurpej Kaur.

19:13.146 --> 19:14.188
And age?

19:14.730 --> 19:16.230
Around 65 or 70.

19:16.771 --> 19:19.230
Village?
- Village Khalra.

19:19.771 --> 19:22.105
Sorry… there’s no one by that name.

19:22.730 --> 19:24.271
You were here yesterday as well, right?

19:26.355 --> 19:27.105
Yes.

19:31.271 --> 19:31.813
Excuse me...

19:32.563 --> 19:34.313
Excuse me, are you done?

19:34.521 --> 19:35.521
Yes…

21:10.021 --> 21:12.521
No need for pity.

21:13.938 --> 21:15.730
Nobody cares about them.

21:17.105 --> 21:18.855
All unclaimed bodies.

21:21.063 --> 21:22.230
Let’s go…

21:25.521 --> 21:27.480
If they’re unclaimed, who brought them here?

21:30.188 --> 21:31.980
Not the milkmen, obviously.

21:33.730 --> 21:35.313
It’s no secret who brings them,

21:36.146 --> 21:37.896
but nobody does anything.

21:39.146 --> 21:40.355
Who’re you looking for?

21:40.771 --> 21:42.021
Bibi Gurpej Kaur.

21:43.480 --> 21:44.980
I’ve searched everywhere.

21:45.521 --> 21:47.146
Thought I’d try here as well.

21:48.438 --> 21:49.855
Madam. Are you...

21:49.980 --> 21:50.855
Are you done?

21:51.271 --> 21:52.188
Satnam?

21:52.730 --> 21:53.480
One minute…

21:56.605 --> 21:58.146
She’s not here.

22:03.188 --> 22:04.480
Excuse me.

22:07.771 --> 22:09.605
Ma told me you came home.

22:10.605 --> 22:11.271
All okay?

22:13.230 --> 22:14.688
It’s been ten days.

22:15.313 --> 22:16.855
I’m still looking for her.

22:18.521 --> 22:20.063
If you can help at all…

22:23.563 --> 22:25.105
I’m telling you as a brother…

22:26.521 --> 22:27.521
Forget all this.

22:28.146 --> 22:29.313
Go back home.

22:30.105 --> 22:31.563
You’ve got a wife and kids.

22:31.980 --> 22:32.813
A family.

22:33.021 --> 22:34.813
She’s also family, Satnam.

22:35.313 --> 22:37.021
Kirpal was our friend.

22:38.355 --> 22:40.396
It's my duty to find Aunty.

22:41.105 --> 22:43.563
Then you’re looking in the wrong places.

22:43.771 --> 22:44.438
What?

22:44.980 --> 22:46.105
Sir, sign.

22:46.313 --> 22:47.438
Eight bodies.

22:50.313 --> 22:54.938
No point scraping through ashes, Jassi.

22:57.480 --> 22:59.271
Your own hands get dirty.

23:00.396 --> 23:01.688
Take my advice.

23:03.480 --> 23:04.646
Go back.

23:05.730 --> 23:06.438
Sat -

23:33.230 --> 23:37.646
'TARN TARAN CREMATORIUM'

23:52.271 --> 23:52.980
Yes, tell me…

23:53.271 --> 23:54.355
What do you want?

23:57.480 --> 23:58.813
We’re looking for her.

24:02.688 --> 24:04.313
Earlier, they’d bring 2-3 bodies.

24:05.730 --> 24:07.480
Now it’s 15-20.

24:08.480 --> 24:10.563
Sometimes they bring a truckload.

24:11.813 --> 24:12.938
Can’t say for sure.

24:22.313 --> 24:24.980
Their names, addresses, or any belongings?

24:26.438 --> 24:28.355
We don't get firewood without names.

24:29.271 --> 24:32.605
It takes 400 kilos of firewood to burn one body.

24:33.563 --> 24:36.563
These days most of the bodies are unclaimed.

24:37.771 --> 24:40.521
Every kilo has to be accounted
for at the municipality.

24:41.396 --> 24:42.855
Only then we get the firewood.

24:48.188 --> 24:49.396
Where are their names written?

24:53.313 --> 24:55.438
Maybe we'll find something there.

25:03.188 --> 25:04.605
Here you go.

25:05.146 --> 25:07.605
You’ll find all the names in these registers.

25:09.146 --> 25:09.896
And these receipts?

25:10.188 --> 25:12.438
Those are official receipts, from the wood mills…

25:12.813 --> 25:14.021
Where the firewood comes from.

25:17.938 --> 25:19.980
Sometimes, if the bodies pile up...

25:20.313 --> 25:22.813
... we have to burn three on each pyre.

25:24.688 --> 25:25.730
What's the name you mentioned?

25:26.396 --> 25:26.980
Gurpej...

25:27.730 --> 25:28.646
Bibi Gurpej Kaur.

25:30.980 --> 25:33.938
Husband, Darbarilal. Son, Kirpal Singh.
Village Khalra…

25:37.396 --> 25:39.646
Here it is... over here.

25:51.146 --> 25:52.271
Unclaimed?

25:53.730 --> 25:54.646
Let it be.

25:56.855 --> 25:58.105
Police encounter...

26:05.646 --> 26:07.188
Jassi?

26:08.355 --> 26:09.271
At this hour?

26:09.688 --> 26:10.813
Went to the police station.

26:12.355 --> 26:13.480
They said you’re home.

26:17.146 --> 26:19.771
I found Bibi’s name at Tarn Taran
crematorium.

26:21.188 --> 26:22.938
In a list of unclaimed bodies.

26:23.896 --> 26:25.646
Who is it, Sattu?

26:26.146 --> 26:29.438
No one, ma! It’s Jassi.
Be right back.

26:34.646 --> 26:36.688
Your police station is also mentioned in the list.

26:38.438 --> 26:40.063
And your inspector as well.

26:42.188 --> 26:43.771
You were right.

26:44.980 --> 26:46.396
I was searching the wrong places.

26:49.480 --> 26:51.063
You knew everything, didn’t you?

26:51.980 --> 26:53.605
You were there, right?

26:56.188 --> 26:57.730
I’m talking to you, Satnam.

26:58.605 --> 26:59.563
What is all this?

27:02.438 --> 27:05.271
A dark truth written on black paper…

27:06.813 --> 27:08.980
… that can neither be seen,

27:09.813 --> 27:11.230
nor read.

27:15.063 --> 27:16.355
You won’t understand.

27:17.896 --> 27:19.438
That’s why I’ve come to you.

27:22.230 --> 27:23.646
Speak the truth, Satnam.

27:24.605 --> 27:26.105
For Kirpal’s sake.

27:28.063 --> 27:29.813
You’re sitting on holy steps.

27:40.105 --> 27:40.855
That night,

27:42.396 --> 27:43.771
we got a call.

27:45.855 --> 27:47.355
Orders from above.

27:49.063 --> 27:50.396
Where is my Kirpal?

27:52.605 --> 27:54.980
I want Kirpal!
- What happened, lady?

27:55.896 --> 27:58.688
I want to meet Kirpal!
- Lady… step away from the car.

27:58.938 --> 28:01.521
What happened?
- I want to meet Kirpal.

28:02.146 --> 28:03.188
Here, take this.

28:03.313 --> 28:05.563
I’ll give you everything. You keep it.

28:06.563 --> 28:07.687
You keep it.

28:07.688 --> 28:09.438
I want to meet Kirpal.

28:09.896 --> 28:13.105
Lady, listen to me…
- Bring my Kirpal...

28:19.021 --> 28:20.938
You know Kirpal, right?

28:21.271 --> 28:22.980
You know where Kirpal is, right?

28:23.771 --> 28:25.438
Where is Kirpal?

28:25.646 --> 28:29.812
Tell me where he is! Where is my Kirpal?
- Hey! Lady…

28:29.813 --> 28:35.188
I want my Kirpal!

28:39.271 --> 28:42.271
I want to see Kirpal.

28:43.521 --> 28:44.855
Look at me, mother.

28:47.688 --> 28:49.313
You want to see Kirpal?
- Yes.

28:51.021 --> 28:52.855
We're going to go see him right now.

28:53.521 --> 28:55.270
Kirpal?
- Yes.

28:55.271 --> 28:56.813
I want to meet him.

28:56.938 --> 28:58.480
You want to meet him?

29:00.355 --> 29:01.104
Satnam!

29:01.105 --> 29:02.271
Yes, sir.

29:05.688 --> 29:07.021
Put mother in the car.

29:09.771 --> 29:11.438
We’ll have a reunion today.

29:16.855 --> 29:20.813
Bless you, son… bless you.

29:21.771 --> 29:23.355
But... but sir…

29:24.646 --> 29:25.521
Son...

29:25.938 --> 29:29.063
I want to meet Kirpal. Let’s go.
- Do it!

29:29.688 --> 29:32.021
Hurry up...

29:32.438 --> 29:35.438
I want to meet Kirpal.

29:37.271 --> 29:38.855
I want to meet Kirpal.

29:39.021 --> 29:42.980
Kirpal...

29:46.605 --> 29:48.605
'May I never deviate from doing a good deed'

29:49.230 --> 29:50.105
There!

29:50.980 --> 29:52.521
You're an inspector now.

29:54.355 --> 29:56.563
Get the postmortem done
and mount that horse.

29:59.730 --> 30:05.271
'Donate blood while alive; donate your eyes after death'

30:14.105 --> 30:15.604
Greetings.
- Hello.

30:15.605 --> 30:16.438
Two bodies.

30:16.896 --> 30:18.105
Killed in a police encounter.

30:19.021 --> 30:19.813
Need their report...

30:21.563 --> 30:22.521
... in 20 minutes.

30:22.646 --> 30:24.855
Give a realistic time for a change.

30:25.563 --> 30:28.396
It takes at least 45 minutes
for one postmortem.

30:28.938 --> 30:29.688
Doctor!

30:29.980 --> 30:30.855
What happened?

30:35.938 --> 30:37.771
What's the problem?

30:38.480 --> 30:39.730
There’s just one dead body.

30:40.521 --> 30:41.271
One is alive.

30:43.021 --> 30:44.188
Bloody hell...

30:45.980 --> 30:47.938
Next one ma’am, next one.

30:49.605 --> 30:51.146
Lady, open your eyes.

30:51.896 --> 30:55.896
Lady... lady, open your eyes.

30:56.313 --> 30:58.646
Ma'am... open your eyes.

31:02.730 --> 31:04.521
Get the O.T. ready.
- Hold it!

31:47.855 --> 31:48.855
There you go, madam.

31:49.396 --> 31:50.813
Now both are dead.

31:52.146 --> 31:53.355
Twenty minutes?

31:55.105 --> 31:57.188
Bring her out!

32:02.146 --> 32:03.855
I couldn’t do anything.

32:06.105 --> 32:07.980
I couldn’t save her.

32:14.855 --> 32:16.563
Why don’t you quit?

32:21.313 --> 32:23.480
You think I haven’t tried?

32:26.688 --> 32:27.980
I’m not the only one.

32:28.605 --> 32:32.563
There are many cops like me
who want to quit.

32:33.563 --> 32:36.605
But for that, we have to sign form 311.

32:38.730 --> 32:40.480
And whoever signs it…

32:41.063 --> 32:43.105
they either disappear...

32:43.605 --> 32:48.688
or they show up dead along with militants.

32:52.688 --> 32:56.813
If I fill up that piece of paper,
then you’ll be looking for me next.

33:00.105 --> 33:03.521
When you're riding a lion, Jassi…

33:05.438 --> 33:09.188
When you get off, the lion eats you.

33:19.105 --> 33:20.271
What are you thinking?

33:22.688 --> 33:25.688
There are 600 names along
with Bibi's, Pammi.

33:26.896 --> 33:29.855
The list has their families’ names,
addresses… everything.

33:33.396 --> 33:36.188
And yet they were marked
‘unclaimed’ and cremated.

33:38.188 --> 33:38.938
Why?

33:44.230 --> 33:46.188
Their families must still be looking for them.

33:52.021 --> 33:53.938
These bodies are not unclaimed, Pammi.

33:55.855 --> 33:56.938
They have families.

33:57.938 --> 34:00.855
And they have every right to know
what happened to their own.

34:04.146 --> 34:06.188
I can’t ignore what I’ve seen, Pammi.

34:09.521 --> 34:11.605
Someone needs to speak up for them.

34:16.688 --> 34:18.188
And whoever does,

34:18.563 --> 34:20.230
what about their family?

34:33.271 --> 34:34.438
600 names.

34:35.105 --> 34:36.771
From one crematorium.

34:38.355 --> 34:40.313
So imagine how many in the whole district.

34:41.230 --> 34:42.688
And how many in the whole of Punjab.

34:43.188 --> 34:46.021
These are just the names mentioned
in government records.

34:47.313 --> 34:51.063
And those who were drowned
in rivers and canals…

34:51.563 --> 34:53.438
There’s no count of them anywhere.

35:01.396 --> 35:03.146
Then get more records.

35:05.730 --> 35:09.188
As many as you can find, wherever
you can find them. Get them all.

35:09.646 --> 35:11.480
It is a very sensitive matter.

35:12.396 --> 35:14.396
We have to make our case very strong.

35:18.313 --> 35:20.188
Otherwise there’s no point.

35:31.480 --> 35:32.980
This was probably the first time…

35:33.896 --> 35:38.271
… that cremation records were being
unearthed to look for missing people.

35:39.146 --> 35:41.688
Shahida, Jandiala, Durgiana, Patti…

35:42.771 --> 35:45.980
Figures were being collected from
all the cremation grounds in the district.

35:46.605 --> 35:51.104
Details of the dead and their killers
were being found under layers of ashes...

35:51.105 --> 35:52.188
Here... Amrik Singh.

35:53.521 --> 35:56.146
... which were recorded in the
crematorium registers,

35:56.896 --> 35:58.646
but all of them unclaimed.

36:00.855 --> 36:02.313
Jassi, police!

36:33.105 --> 36:34.855
These are unofficial cremation records.

36:35.438 --> 36:36.605
This won’t be enough.

36:36.896 --> 36:38.313
I know it won’t.

36:38.938 --> 36:40.938
That’s why we back these up
with government records.

36:41.771 --> 36:45.063
The names of the dead and the cops
who killed them are in the municipality files as well,

36:45.563 --> 36:47.438
from where they supplied the firewood.

36:48.438 --> 36:51.605
We tally the municipality records with
the cremation records.

36:54.146 --> 36:56.188
Earlier they’d just target rebels.

36:56.563 --> 36:59.563
Now they abduct anyone for extortion.

37:00.605 --> 37:03.146
It's a business... in the name of peace.

37:06.313 --> 37:07.730
It’s a great start.

37:09.813 --> 37:11.021
But it’s not enough.

37:11.771 --> 37:13.355
2097 names.

37:13.521 --> 37:14.855
From just three cremation grounds.

37:15.521 --> 37:17.355
Durgiana, Patti and Tarn Taran.

37:18.146 --> 37:21.396
It still isn’t enough
to file a petition?

37:21.646 --> 37:22.730
That’s not the point.

37:25.646 --> 37:26.355
You know him?

37:27.146 --> 37:28.438
Satvinder Singh?

37:28.771 --> 37:30.771
These are all individual cases.

37:31.188 --> 37:34.771
To register them in court, you need
to bring their families forward.

37:35.021 --> 37:38.230
They don’t even know that the people
they’re looking for are no more.

37:39.355 --> 37:41.021
So it's time to let them know.

37:42.063 --> 37:43.605
You'll have to tell them.

37:59.771 --> 38:02.771
Not all, but many missing people’s names,

38:03.063 --> 38:06.438
their families and where they live,
and their police reports.

38:06.896 --> 38:07.730
It’s all in here.

38:10.313 --> 38:11.770
I owe you for this.

38:11.771 --> 38:13.313
For what, Jassi?

38:14.688 --> 38:16.771
You showed me this path.

38:19.563 --> 38:21.688
But what you’re doing…

38:21.855 --> 38:24.396
It’s the work of a true Sikh.

38:27.521 --> 38:29.521
Take care of yourself.

38:36.605 --> 38:39.730
More than 6 months since he left.
No news till date.

38:39.855 --> 38:42.480
Is Balli a friend of yours?
Do you know where he is?

38:42.813 --> 38:45.730
I was seven years old
when I last saw my father.

38:46.188 --> 38:48.313
My mother says he'll be back.

38:48.730 --> 38:50.105
Do you know where is he?

38:51.105 --> 38:53.146
Five years since he left home.

38:53.646 --> 38:56.896
They say he was killed in a police encounter.
But I don’t believe it.

38:57.563 --> 38:59.896
They don’t even give any official papers.

39:00.271 --> 39:01.896
That’s his room.

39:02.063 --> 39:04.230
If you know anything, please tell us.

39:04.730 --> 39:06.980
My father was in the police.

39:07.438 --> 39:09.604
Then he left his job.

39:09.605 --> 39:12.855
A few days later, the police
came and took him away.

39:13.521 --> 39:14.521
Then?

39:14.938 --> 39:17.396
Then he never came back.

39:18.230 --> 39:19.480
How do I tell them?

39:20.396 --> 39:21.605
Did you see their faces?

39:24.188 --> 39:25.271
It’ll break them.

39:26.730 --> 39:27.730
Get the hell out!

39:27.980 --> 39:29.105
You are a lair!

39:29.271 --> 39:30.813
How do you know he’s dead?

39:31.105 --> 39:33.438
My son is alive! Got it?

39:33.813 --> 39:35.020
He’s not dead!

39:35.021 --> 39:36.854
Mummy!
- Get out of here!

39:36.855 --> 39:38.604
Mummy, please come…
- You liar!

39:38.605 --> 39:41.355
My son is alive!
Mummy, come inside!

39:41.813 --> 39:43.896
Every other day corpses show up.

39:44.896 --> 39:47.230
We're tired of writing to your government.

39:48.688 --> 39:50.479
No one does anything about it.

39:50.480 --> 39:51.855
Another 6 or 7 today.

39:52.646 --> 39:54.480
Clogged up the barrage all night.

39:54.938 --> 39:56.896
Polluted the entire canal.

39:57.605 --> 40:00.230
You expect us to drink this water?

40:03.480 --> 40:05.771
This is a fight for human rights.

40:05.938 --> 40:07.313
For all of us.

40:07.646 --> 40:09.813
This is Navdeep’s fight.

40:10.146 --> 40:11.980
We’ve acquired some government files…

40:12.105 --> 40:15.813
… with detailed records of our
deceased brothers.

40:16.021 --> 40:18.271
And we want answers from
the government.

40:18.563 --> 40:20.312
That’s why we’re all here.

40:20.313 --> 40:20.855
Yes.

40:21.688 --> 40:23.521
You will go away son…

40:23.813 --> 40:27.188
If the police breaks down our door,
how are we supposed to find you?

40:34.896 --> 40:36.896
Here you go, Jaswant Singh. Your cards.

40:37.063 --> 40:39.021
Ten boxes full. Check them.

40:42.355 --> 40:43.021
Okay?

40:45.188 --> 40:45.730
Yes.

40:46.563 --> 40:48.771
If anyone comes, give them this card.

40:49.521 --> 40:51.313
Even to the police.

40:51.896 --> 40:54.438
It has my name, address and number.

40:54.855 --> 40:57.021
You folks have no reason to fear.

40:57.521 --> 41:00.438
Nobody can take away our right
to find our loved ones.

41:01.396 --> 41:03.480
And the government will only give answers...

41:03.730 --> 41:06.313
when we come forward
and ask for answers.

41:06.438 --> 41:07.855
And demand our right.

41:08.563 --> 41:11.896
Tell us where to go, son.
I’ll go with you.

41:22.271 --> 41:23.563
All this is fine, advocate…

41:24.730 --> 41:26.063
But you have no locus-standi.

41:26.313 --> 41:28.355
To file these petitions,

41:28.646 --> 41:31.355
you need to bring all their families to court.

41:32.105 --> 41:34.980
You can’t file the petitions independently.

41:35.396 --> 41:37.230
And all this is meaningless without the families.

41:38.355 --> 41:39.396
Absolutely, your honour.

41:41.355 --> 41:43.146
That’s why we’ve brought the
families with us.

41:46.938 --> 41:48.105
That’s it?

41:50.146 --> 41:51.896
Your figures are much higher.

41:52.021 --> 41:54.313
See we had to make a start somewhere so…

41:55.146 --> 41:56.355
You can start with these.

41:56.646 --> 42:00.063
Once the court shows courage,
the rest will follow.

42:22.605 --> 42:24.855
What is this human rights issue?

42:25.771 --> 42:28.063
It’s in all the newspapers in New Delhi.

42:30.730 --> 42:34.188
The reputation of the Punjab Police
and the government is at stake.

42:35.146 --> 42:38.396
Mr. Bitta… handle it please.

42:38.771 --> 42:39.938
Sir...

42:40.730 --> 42:42.521
Have you followed the Gulf war?

42:43.063 --> 42:45.271
And now the ongoing Chechen war?

42:45.480 --> 42:46.438
Sir do you know…

42:46.771 --> 42:52.730
… how much noise these human rights
people make all over the world?

42:53.438 --> 42:57.271
I mean... it's just a gimmick for attention.

42:57.688 --> 42:59.105
Just ignore it, sir.

43:01.646 --> 43:04.646
And who is this Jaswant Singh?

43:06.813 --> 43:08.730
I’ll handle it.

43:38.646 --> 43:39.896
What’re you looking at?

43:41.646 --> 43:43.813
It’s been here all night.

43:56.938 --> 43:58.396
You’ve been here all night.

43:59.271 --> 44:00.605
Must be tired.

44:01.480 --> 44:03.021
It’s tea time, so I brought some.

44:09.271 --> 44:10.355
Just one request…

44:10.646 --> 44:12.230
I have to take the kids to school.

44:12.563 --> 44:14.480
Once you finish,
please keep the cups inside.

44:30.188 --> 44:32.271
Sir, greetings.

44:37.480 --> 44:40.438
56 people have surrendered today.

44:41.646 --> 44:44.646
This is neither a victory for us…

44:45.271 --> 44:47.813
… nor is it a loss for the terrorists.

44:48.605 --> 44:51.813
If it’s a loss, it is a loss for all Punjabis.

44:52.480 --> 44:56.605
And if it’s a win, then it’s a win
for all Punjabis…

44:56.813 --> 45:01.355
… that peace is finally returning to Punjab.

45:05.605 --> 45:10.105
But there are some people who are
unable to digest this peace.

45:10.813 --> 45:14.563
And foremost among them are
these human rights people.

45:15.480 --> 45:18.813
Those that they’re calling ‘unclaimed bodies’...

45:19.188 --> 45:24.438
are in reality working in Europe and
America as menial workers,

45:24.896 --> 45:29.230
or driving taxis to feed themselves
and their families.

45:30.438 --> 45:31.770
And over here,

45:31.771 --> 45:33.479
these human rights people...

45:33.480 --> 45:36.563
... are running their own propaganda
against the police.

45:37.438 --> 45:38.771
In reality, these people...

45:39.563 --> 45:41.980
are mere puppets of foreign powers.

45:43.146 --> 45:44.021
And now…

45:44.438 --> 45:48.395
We must protect our Punjab
from these people.

45:48.396 --> 45:50.188
If these missing people

45:50.480 --> 45:54.521
have become menial workers in Europe
and America, or driving taxis…

45:55.271 --> 45:56.812
Then I’d like to ask Mr. Bitta

45:56.813 --> 46:00.146
why their names are in cremation
registers instead of visa files?

46:00.605 --> 46:04.188
Be it the body is of a rebel
or a common man,

46:04.771 --> 46:07.229
only their family has a legal claim on it.

46:07.230 --> 46:09.105
Look at these figures.

46:10.646 --> 46:12.438
Patti, Durgiana and Tarn Taran.

46:12.730 --> 46:14.854
From just 3 crematoria in Amritsar district,

46:14.855 --> 46:18.230
we found over 2000 names that
were marked ‘unclaimed’.

46:18.730 --> 46:20.313
Including their addresses.

46:20.771 --> 46:22.730
So why weren’t their bodies returned
to their families?

46:23.230 --> 46:27.396
And the list also has the names and signatures of the
policemen who brought the bodies.

46:27.730 --> 46:32.438
By our estimate, considering all the
cremation grounds, this figure it at least 25,000.

46:33.105 --> 46:36.938
And most of them are youths
under the age of 30.

46:39.730 --> 46:42.730
This is Nyara Singh and Amrik Singh.

46:43.063 --> 46:45.271
Both were respectable officers in a big bank.

46:45.438 --> 46:46.438
One day they disappeared.

46:47.146 --> 46:50.146
We found out that they too were
marked ‘unclaimed’ and cremated.

46:51.355 --> 46:53.396
Have they also fled abroad to
become menial workers?

46:53.605 --> 46:57.396
Post emergency the Punjab government
has given carte-blanche to the police.

46:57.855 --> 46:59.313
Sikhs are killing Sikhs...

46:59.480 --> 47:02.021
while the people in power
are getting rich and fat.

47:02.355 --> 47:04.062
And the state and the courts...

47:04.063 --> 47:06.729
have shut their eyes to the overwhelming
evidence in front of them.

47:06.730 --> 47:09.145
That’s why we’ve appealed to international
human rights agencies

47:09.146 --> 47:11.938
and the World Sikh Organisation for help.

47:12.271 --> 47:14.605
We are not anti-police or anti-government.

47:15.021 --> 47:17.895
We’re only against those people who,
for their own promotions,

47:17.896 --> 47:20.605
have crossed all the boundaries of humanity.

47:21.396 --> 47:24.313
And for this I challenge Mr. Bitta
to an open debate.

47:24.480 --> 47:26.521
That he come forward and
answer our questions.

47:45.771 --> 47:49.771
The matter on human rights violations
is being investigated.

47:51.063 --> 47:56.063
You'll be getting the full report very soon.

47:56.813 --> 48:00.187
Sir, the Rajasthan government has
been claiming for some time now

48:00.188 --> 48:02.646
that countless bodies have been flowing
in from Punjab’s canals.

48:03.230 --> 48:06.438
And this has been under investigation
as well, but no result yet.

48:07.480 --> 48:08.771
Any explanation sir?

48:10.396 --> 48:11.146
The...

48:11.980 --> 48:16.938
bodies being found in Rajasthan
are completely unverified.

48:17.896 --> 48:23.688
And accidents happen near
the canals all the time.

48:24.646 --> 48:28.521
A lot of people slip and fall in and...

48:29.021 --> 48:31.230
unfortunately they drown.

48:31.646 --> 48:33.105
It’s sad…

48:33.688 --> 48:37.021
It’s tragic but there is no conspiracy.

48:37.980 --> 48:42.438
Bitta sir… there are rumours you’ll be getting
another two year extension?

48:43.396 --> 48:46.021
This is a government decision.

48:46.480 --> 48:47.605
And I leave it to them.

48:47.896 --> 48:48.521
Sir...

48:48.896 --> 48:52.146
The open debate that Jaswant Singh
has challenged you to…

48:52.521 --> 48:54.146
Would you like to comment on that?

48:55.146 --> 48:56.646
When and where will this debate take place?

48:57.771 --> 48:59.355
Who is he to -

49:00.521 --> 49:01.355
Thank you.

49:02.480 --> 49:04.020
Thank you for coming.
- Excuse me, sir!

49:04.021 --> 49:06.105
And thank you everybody.

49:06.771 --> 49:09.771
And yes, please have some
snacks before leaving.

49:10.605 --> 49:12.938
Sir you never answered my question. Sir...

49:13.313 --> 49:18.938
I don’t know about your Gulf and
Chechen or whatever, but...

49:19.313 --> 49:21.980
Things are definitely
getting out of hand here.

49:22.313 --> 49:23.563
You must have seen this.

49:23.896 --> 49:25.604
I need a small favour from you.

49:25.605 --> 49:27.896
Sir, one official picture, please.

49:30.605 --> 49:32.563
Anything to end this mess.

49:35.105 --> 49:38.105
Yesterday you said it would take
another week to get out.

49:39.146 --> 49:41.313
What changed overnight?

49:41.896 --> 49:43.938
The DGP will fill you in.

49:49.521 --> 49:51.271
I’m sending you to Tarn Taran.

49:52.188 --> 49:53.438
As Senior Superintendent of Police

49:53.563 --> 49:54.605
Sir.

49:54.855 --> 49:57.646
And you will report only to me.

49:58.063 --> 50:01.063
Sir, I give you my word.

50:08.313 --> 50:09.438
Sir…

50:23.521 --> 50:24.980
Sugga was a loose cannon.

50:25.146 --> 50:28.146
Firing a gun was second nature to him.

50:28.730 --> 50:32.688
As soon as he took charge, abductions,
killings and encounters increased.

50:35.188 --> 50:37.146
There was panic everywhere.

50:38.230 --> 50:42.313
An entire generation was being wiped
out from Punjab in the name of terrorism.

50:43.688 --> 50:47.563
This bloodshed had been going
on for the past ten years.

50:47.855 --> 50:50.605
And the everyone was silent
on this whole issue.

50:52.063 --> 50:55.605
The whole issue of human rights violations
was being ignored.

50:59.355 --> 51:01.021
Far from trust...

51:01.605 --> 51:03.896
There was fear in the hearts
of the people...

51:04.146 --> 51:06.938
which Jaswant Singh and his team
fought with all their might.

51:08.813 --> 51:15.188
Punjab Police, answer us!
- Answer us!

51:15.521 --> 51:19.313
We demand CBI Inquiry!

51:19.438 --> 51:22.980
Down with Surjit Singh Sugga!

51:26.355 --> 51:27.105
Hello.

51:28.271 --> 51:29.021
Hello.

51:29.313 --> 51:32.896
Yes hello... it's not too late yet.
Talk some sense into him!

51:33.230 --> 51:35.730
Doesn’t he have any concern for his family?

51:47.063 --> 51:48.646
Invitation from Canada.

51:49.438 --> 51:50.980
They've called you on a special permit.

51:52.438 --> 51:53.729
The World Sikh Organisation...

51:53.730 --> 51:57.521
and international human rights
agencies want to hear us out.

51:58.021 --> 52:01.021
It’s time to tell the world
what’s going on here, Jassi.

52:02.396 --> 52:04.105
This could be our last chance.

52:05.146 --> 52:06.521
Think about it.

52:30.563 --> 52:33.396
Coming to Canada was a crucial
step for Jaswant Singh.

52:34.813 --> 52:40.730
This invitation gave Jaswant the chance to
present his report on the world's stage.

52:41.605 --> 52:45.521
The Khalsa belongs to God,
Victory belongs to God.

52:46.355 --> 52:49.146
I’ve come to this country on a special mission,

52:50.230 --> 52:53.605
to present before you a very
important report on human rights.

52:54.646 --> 52:59.521
This report talks about the last ten years
of oppression in Punjab.

53:00.313 --> 53:04.563
It talks about thousands of mothers
still waiting for their children to return.

53:05.313 --> 53:07.396
Just one question in their eyes.

53:07.938 --> 53:12.105
That someone find out if their
children are still in this world.

53:18.605 --> 53:21.605
When we reached the cremation grounds
in search of our loved ones,

53:21.730 --> 53:26.355
we found a complete written account
of all our lost brothers,

53:27.105 --> 53:30.396
marked ‘unclaimed’ in government
registers and cremated.

53:31.105 --> 53:33.146
They say a thief always leaves a clue.

53:33.771 --> 53:35.605
These thieves left so many clues,

53:36.021 --> 53:39.771
that in just 3 cremation grounds in Amritsar -
Patti, Durgiana and Tarn Taran,

53:40.438 --> 53:43.146
we found records of 2097 people.

53:43.813 --> 53:46.355
A figure that has since increased to 6017.

53:46.896 --> 53:47.937
According to these numbers,

53:47.938 --> 53:51.312
the number of 'unclaimed’ bodies in all
of Punjab is estimated

53:51.313 --> 53:52.771
to be approximately 25,000.

53:54.105 --> 53:56.313
And we appealed to our government as well,

53:56.730 --> 53:58.563
but our words fell on deaf ears.

54:00.646 --> 54:04.355
A mockery has been made of justice, of the law,
of an entire community!

54:04.855 --> 54:08.063
And a mockery has been made of all those families
who ask nothing more of their government...

54:08.730 --> 54:11.313
than their children’s death certificates.

54:11.730 --> 54:15.771
To those who brand us
terrorists and communalists,

54:16.855 --> 54:18.938
I’d like to appeal to them.

54:19.438 --> 54:20.563
People of the world...

54:21.646 --> 54:23.896
those whom you consider the messiahs of peace

54:25.021 --> 54:26.563
and the prophets of democracy...

54:27.188 --> 54:30.063
first recognize their truth, and then tell us...

54:31.563 --> 54:34.480
who is the terrorist and who is the righteous.

54:48.396 --> 54:51.730
The Khalsa belongs to God,
Victory belongs to God.

54:59.855 --> 55:01.605
You’ll be taken care of here.

55:02.521 --> 55:04.855
You and your family will be safe.

55:05.938 --> 55:11.230
Thank you. But it’s not just about
me or my family.

55:12.063 --> 55:14.355
It’s about thousands of families

55:14.646 --> 55:16.271
who have been betrayed,

55:16.480 --> 55:18.980
and are all living in fear.

55:19.146 --> 55:23.188
I know Jaswant, but I’m serious.

55:24.146 --> 55:25.771
You could get killed back home.

55:28.230 --> 55:30.938
Take the asylum, please!

55:32.146 --> 55:33.438
If I take the asylum,

55:37.813 --> 55:39.105
this mission dies.

55:44.563 --> 55:46.105
Take care of yourself.

55:48.813 --> 55:51.396
Jaswant’s efforts paid off.

55:52.271 --> 55:55.271
The Punjab government was
feeling the pressure.

55:57.938 --> 56:03.771
And Amnesty urged the Punjab government
to provide Jaswant with extra security.

56:16.355 --> 56:18.396
You’re refusing extra security?

56:19.105 --> 56:21.563
Do you know how special
you have to be to get security?

56:22.605 --> 56:24.605
Don’t refuse it, sir. Take it.

56:34.438 --> 56:35.521
You’re his father, right?

56:36.480 --> 56:37.771
Uncle, make him understand.

56:38.313 --> 56:39.730
You’re getting four guys.

56:40.355 --> 56:41.605
Two with him at all times.

56:41.771 --> 56:43.688
And two standing vigilant
at the gate. Left - right.

56:44.355 --> 56:47.771
You’ll become a big man at this age, a VIP.

56:48.521 --> 56:50.813
And Mr. Singh is also there.
He'll keep stopping by.

56:52.021 --> 56:53.063
Much appreciated.

56:54.646 --> 56:55.895
But if you have to give security,

56:55.896 --> 56:58.646
give it to those families living
in fear of the police.

57:04.063 --> 57:04.688
Hello.

57:05.396 --> 57:06.230
Yes, one minute…

57:07.730 --> 57:08.896
MLA Mahinderpal Singh on the line.

57:15.146 --> 57:16.646
Yes, this is Jaswant Singh.

57:17.105 --> 57:20.105
What good is Spring,

57:20.271 --> 57:22.355
if one does not have loving worship of God?

57:22.688 --> 57:25.521
Forgetting the Eternal, our True Friend;

57:25.980 --> 57:27.771
One is engrossed in worldly illusion.

57:28.105 --> 57:31.145
Sons, wives, friends, and wealth shall
not go with you;

57:31.146 --> 57:33.271
only the imperishable wealth of the
Eternal will go with you.

57:33.480 --> 57:35.980
Those entangled in false affairs are destroyed;

57:36.230 --> 57:38.105
they are lost in the love of duality.

57:38.438 --> 57:43.730
Without the Name of the Divine, nothing is of any use;

57:43.855 --> 57:48.396
There is no Lord except the one Divine.

57:48.563 --> 57:53.396
Those who remain absorbed in the Lord
and renounce all, obtain him.

57:53.646 --> 57:56.730
O Nanak, this is my prayer to God:

57:57.063 --> 57:59.646
Please, let me meet the Lord.

57:59.813 --> 58:05.063
I heard about the ripples you
made in Canada.

58:09.396 --> 58:10.938
I’m only doing my work.

58:14.230 --> 58:18.105
But going abroad and slandering
your own people…

58:19.396 --> 58:20.521
Is that right?

58:26.688 --> 58:30.896
Don’t you think we should keep our
problems to ourselves?

58:31.480 --> 58:34.105
We’ve been keeping our problems
to ourselves since 1984.

58:35.230 --> 58:36.855
But it's only been getting worse.

58:38.105 --> 58:39.730
Somebody needs to stop this.

58:42.355 --> 58:45.021
You have a small family.

58:46.480 --> 58:49.563
Should anything unfortunate
happen tomorrow...

58:49.980 --> 58:51.730
Who will take care of them?

58:53.313 --> 58:56.980
I heard you refused security as well.

58:58.105 --> 59:00.313
You talk about one family.

59:01.521 --> 59:03.229
I’m talking about all those families

59:03.230 --> 59:06.521
whose loved ones were declared ‘unclaimed’.

59:14.146 --> 59:16.188
When an ant bites,

59:17.021 --> 59:18.396
you don’t debate with it.

59:19.771 --> 59:21.230
You stomp it dead.

59:22.146 --> 59:24.688
And you’re no more than an ant
to these people.

59:26.771 --> 59:30.480
And what is this rant about 25,000 bodies?

59:33.480 --> 59:37.396
Sugga is just waiting for the
order against you.

59:40.480 --> 59:44.521
I’ve kept a prayer at home,
I won't lie.

59:46.188 --> 59:48.063
If your skin remains this thick,

59:49.313 --> 59:51.938
then very soon he will get that order.

59:52.855 --> 59:53.980
Understand?

59:58.688 --> 01:00:00.021
Thank you, goodbye.

01:00:09.021 --> 01:00:10.688
Bloody fool!

01:00:42.230 --> 01:00:44.188
Why’s Jimmy barking?

01:00:44.521 --> 01:00:45.605
You didn’t feed him?

01:00:45.771 --> 01:00:46.355
I did.

01:00:54.271 --> 01:00:56.188
Saag’s good, isn’t it?

01:01:05.438 --> 01:01:06.646
Greetings, mother.

01:01:17.355 --> 01:01:19.605
I can sniff out two things
from a mile away.

01:01:21.146 --> 01:01:23.063
One, a hot plate of saag.

01:01:24.230 --> 01:01:25.771
And two, terrorists.

01:01:28.188 --> 01:01:29.146
Come, mother…

01:01:31.521 --> 01:01:33.730
Feed us some of your delicious saag today.

01:01:42.480 --> 01:01:43.355
Greetings.

01:02:14.188 --> 01:02:15.396
Exquisite!

01:02:17.855 --> 01:02:19.021
Get two more plates.

01:02:41.105 --> 01:02:43.146
Start. Come on.

01:02:55.980 --> 01:02:57.396
The plates are here.

01:02:59.063 --> 01:03:00.688
Brings the guests.
- Yes, sir.

01:03:06.730 --> 01:03:09.063
Let's go, come on.

01:03:13.188 --> 01:03:16.188
Go on, sit. Right there.

01:03:16.813 --> 01:03:17.688
Sit down.

01:03:27.646 --> 01:03:28.521
You know them?

01:03:30.480 --> 01:03:32.438
Yesterday, they were feared militants.

01:03:34.480 --> 01:03:35.730
And today...

01:03:36.980 --> 01:03:39.021
They betrayed their own people.

01:03:42.355 --> 01:03:43.812
And those people tipped us off.

01:03:43.813 --> 01:03:45.813
Here, have some.

01:03:49.646 --> 01:03:51.063
Now you tell me…

01:03:51.521 --> 01:03:53.605
What’s the punishment for being a traitor?

01:04:00.396 --> 01:04:01.188
Eat.

01:04:28.896 --> 01:04:30.063
Take their plates away, mother.

01:04:32.188 --> 01:04:34.271
We shouldn't offend the Gods.

01:05:16.563 --> 01:05:19.063
SATNAM!

01:05:33.855 --> 01:05:37.521
Rumour has it that someone in the
department is leaking inside information.

01:05:39.063 --> 01:05:40.646
We're just looking for him.

01:05:44.688 --> 01:05:47.688
You know who it is?

01:06:01.396 --> 01:06:02.771
I’ll come straight to the point.

01:06:05.938 --> 01:06:07.521
I hear Jaswant Singh is a friend of yours.

01:06:09.230 --> 01:06:11.146
You grew up together back in Khalra.

01:06:12.521 --> 01:06:14.271
When did you see him last?

01:06:15.313 --> 01:06:16.646
Remember anything?

01:06:21.146 --> 01:06:23.188
His wife’s pregnant.

01:06:23.771 --> 01:06:25.980
Her seventh month.

01:06:27.438 --> 01:06:29.146
He’s the eldest of the house.

01:06:30.480 --> 01:06:31.771
Please forgive him.

01:06:32.563 --> 01:06:34.021
Forgive him.

01:06:35.688 --> 01:06:37.855
For God’s sake.

01:06:38.813 --> 01:06:40.688
Forgive my son.

01:06:41.771 --> 01:06:43.438
He hasn’t done anything.

01:06:43.938 --> 01:06:46.938
Forgive my son, forgive him.

01:06:47.521 --> 01:06:48.521
Look…

01:06:49.063 --> 01:06:51.396
Look, I’m begging you.

01:06:51.688 --> 01:06:54.188
I’m begging you, please…

01:06:54.396 --> 01:06:55.646
Forgive him.

01:06:56.063 --> 01:06:58.188
Alright, mother.

01:06:59.105 --> 01:07:00.355
Let’s play a game.

01:07:01.605 --> 01:07:04.605
If it lands in my right hand,
then it’s our luck.

01:07:07.271 --> 01:07:09.188
And if it lands in my left, then it’s his.

01:07:13.980 --> 01:07:17.771
Eeni meeni miney mo…

01:07:18.355 --> 01:07:22.021
Catch a traitor by his toe…

01:07:22.438 --> 01:07:26.521
If he squeals, let him know...

01:07:27.188 --> 01:07:31.396
Straight to hell, he will go.

01:07:34.355 --> 01:07:39.271
Thank God!

01:07:41.146 --> 01:07:42.938
What a fortunate son, mother.

01:07:45.688 --> 01:07:46.271
Thank you.

01:07:54.771 --> 01:07:57.396
Even if I forgive you for
betraying your own…

01:08:00.938 --> 01:08:01.771
But these...

01:08:03.605 --> 01:08:05.230
terrorists that were found in your home.

01:08:06.271 --> 01:08:07.355
What about them?

01:08:13.271 --> 01:08:14.521
That’s betraying your country.

01:08:16.896 --> 01:08:17.812
Right?

01:08:26.230 --> 01:08:28.312
That deserves punishment, mother.

01:08:55.687 --> 01:08:57.062
Good thing we found out in time.

01:08:57.646 --> 01:09:00.021
Or things would have gotten out of hand.

01:09:00.730 --> 01:09:03.146
We found out around 9-9:30 last night.

01:09:03.646 --> 01:09:05.480
We found these weapons, sir.

01:09:07.355 --> 01:09:10.355
Were they going to blow up the whole
village with this arsenal?

01:09:10.687 --> 01:09:12.771
Who knows what they were up to.

01:09:14.187 --> 01:09:16.730
Do an inventory of these weapons.
- Yes, sir.

01:09:17.312 --> 01:09:19.937
Then get witness testimonies and send
these bodies for postmortem.

01:09:21.480 --> 01:09:24.187
3 AK-47s.
- Yes sir.

01:09:24.437 --> 01:09:26.437
2 Carbines.
- Yes sir.

01:09:27.146 --> 01:09:28.437
5 Mausers.

01:09:28.687 --> 01:09:30.146
Yes sir.

01:10:55.563 --> 01:10:57.271
What are you doing this late?

01:10:59.271 --> 01:11:00.563
I'm sleeping here from tonight.

01:11:01.480 --> 01:11:04.605
If they come, they'll find me first.

01:11:08.980 --> 01:11:11.396
At least they won’t get to
you and the kids.

01:11:16.563 --> 01:11:19.563
First time I’m seeing you this scared.

01:11:22.605 --> 01:11:24.813
I'm not scared for myself, Pammi.

01:11:27.646 --> 01:11:29.063
You asked me, didn’t you…

01:11:29.771 --> 01:11:31.563
Whoever steps up,
what about their family?

01:11:34.188 --> 01:11:36.771
This decision is for my family.

01:11:41.063 --> 01:11:42.980
I’ve come too far, Pammi.

01:11:46.188 --> 01:11:48.605
It’s been three months since
we filed our petition.

01:11:49.396 --> 01:11:51.021
But still no answers.

01:11:52.063 --> 01:11:55.896
And in response, my family and I
are being threatened.

01:11:57.021 --> 01:11:58.438
We’re being watched.

01:11:59.355 --> 01:12:02.355
But I’d like to let them know that
their threats won’t work.

01:12:03.188 --> 01:12:05.021
If something happens to me tomorrow…

01:12:05.355 --> 01:12:07.105
If a car or a truck runs me over,

01:12:07.771 --> 01:12:11.063
if I get shot, or if you find my body
floating in some canal...

01:12:11.646 --> 01:12:14.188
then no single cop will be to blame.

01:12:14.688 --> 01:12:17.896
The blame will fall on the
Punjab government and DGP Bitta,

01:12:18.938 --> 01:12:21.938
who have given free reign to
men like SSP Sugga.

01:12:24.813 --> 01:12:26.021
Hey, calm down.

01:12:26.813 --> 01:12:28.271
We are at war.

01:12:28.855 --> 01:12:32.730
We’ve been fighting a low-intensity
proxy war for the last ten years.

01:12:33.730 --> 01:12:38.771
While it is every citizen's democratic
right to ask questions,

01:12:39.313 --> 01:12:41.438
you must also remember,

01:12:41.563 --> 01:12:45.646
it is because of us that
you have that right.

01:12:46.313 --> 01:12:49.521
Or else Punjab would have become a
militant state a long time ago.

01:12:51.355 --> 01:12:52.688
You see...

01:12:53.021 --> 01:12:54.980
War and peace

01:12:55.355 --> 01:12:58.355
are two sides of the same coin.

01:12:59.146 --> 01:13:12.063
'The Divine Truth'

01:13:13.271 --> 01:13:19.646
leads me to the Light.

01:13:20.938 --> 01:13:28.896
The battle drum beats in my mind’s sky

01:13:29.480 --> 01:13:36.021
Aim is taken and the wound is inflicted.

01:13:36.771 --> 01:13:46.730
The spiritual warriors enter the field of battle.

01:13:48.188 --> 01:13:57.021
Now is the time to fight.

01:13:57.980 --> 01:14:03.730
He alone is known as a spiritual warrior

01:14:04.605 --> 01:14:10.480
who fights in defense of his faith.

01:14:17.480 --> 01:14:20.480
Piece by piece,

01:14:21.105 --> 01:14:24.980
he is cut apart.

01:14:25.980 --> 01:14:28.520
We have just learned that at
approximately 9:30 this morning,

01:14:28.521 --> 01:14:32.605
CM Anant Singh was killed in an
explosion at the Chandigarh secretariat.

01:14:32.771 --> 01:14:36.812
CM Anant Singh’s assassin, Dilbag Singh,
was a member of the CM’s own security detail.

01:14:36.813 --> 01:14:43.438
But he never leaves the field of battle.

01:14:47.230 --> 01:14:49.646
17 people were blown to shreds in the blast.

01:14:50.730 --> 01:14:53.688
Nobody knew who was burning
in the casket.

01:14:55.313 --> 01:14:58.896
And this entire mess was being seen
as DGP Bitta’s security failure.

01:14:59.271 --> 01:15:03.896
The question is, will DGP Bitta take
responsibility for his security failure?

01:15:04.146 --> 01:15:06.480
Human rights activist, Jaswant Singh

01:15:06.730 --> 01:15:10.604
is holding the Punjab Police responsible
for the innocent lives lost

01:15:10.605 --> 01:15:16.230
and is demanding answers from the new CM,
Gurcharan Singh Bohra, and DGP Bitta.

01:15:24.563 --> 01:15:28.021
'Verse chanting'

01:15:29.105 --> 01:15:30.396
And what does this mean?

01:15:30.813 --> 01:15:34.438
'Sorrow and suffering cannot touch
those who walk with God.'

01:15:34.605 --> 01:15:37.563
Very good!
- Thank you.

01:15:37.813 --> 01:15:41.812
Here Sanjiv, your tea.
Come on, let's go Kiran.

01:15:41.813 --> 01:15:43.855
Coming, coming.

01:15:44.605 --> 01:15:46.188
Hurry up, Kiran.

01:15:46.688 --> 01:15:47.730
Bye!
- Hurry up.

01:15:47.938 --> 01:15:48.855
Bye, bye...

01:15:51.355 --> 01:15:52.520
Sanjiv, you finish your tea.

01:15:52.521 --> 01:15:54.271
I'll just wash the car,
then we'll leave together.

01:15:54.396 --> 01:15:55.105
Sure.

01:16:04.105 --> 01:16:06.354
Jaswant Singh... Come, we need to talk.
- Talk about what?

01:16:06.355 --> 01:16:09.563
Come on, Get in!
- But what's the matter? Sanjiv!

01:16:09.771 --> 01:16:11.021
Sanjiv!
- Get inside!

01:16:12.355 --> 01:16:13.480
Sanjiv!

01:16:15.188 --> 01:16:17.604
Sanjiv!
- Move it, come on!

01:16:17.605 --> 01:16:18.563
Sanjiv, come out!

01:16:19.396 --> 01:16:20.313
Sanjiv!

01:16:20.730 --> 01:16:22.271
Get lost!
- Let's go, let's go!

01:16:22.480 --> 01:16:23.688
Drive, drive!
- Stop!

01:16:23.855 --> 01:16:25.271
Come on, drive! Hurry up!
- Stop the car!

01:16:52.855 --> 01:16:56.062
Long live Jaswant Singh!

01:16:56.063 --> 01:16:59.520
Bring back Jaswant Singh!

01:16:59.521 --> 01:17:02.396
More than 48 hours had passed since
Jaswant Singh’s abduction.

01:17:03.313 --> 01:17:05.770
Protests and vigils broke out all over Punjab.

01:17:05.771 --> 01:17:07.229
Long live the 'brothers of the unclaimed'.

01:17:07.230 --> 01:17:08.688
And they all had one demand...

01:17:09.688 --> 01:17:10.980
‘Return Jaswant Singh’.

01:17:12.855 --> 01:17:14.688
Despite two eye-witnesses,

01:17:15.605 --> 01:17:19.355
the silence of the government echoed not
just in Punjab,

01:17:20.355 --> 01:17:21.980
but all over the world.

01:17:22.605 --> 01:17:28.771
I urge the courts in India to conduct a fair
and immediate investigation of this crime.

01:17:29.313 --> 01:17:32.771
And to demand justice for
Jaswant Singh and his family.

01:17:33.563 --> 01:17:37.021
Is the silence of cremation grounds akin to peace?

01:17:38.146 --> 01:17:40.646
Are human rights only for the living?

01:17:40.980 --> 01:17:42.105
Not the dead?

01:17:43.146 --> 01:17:48.230
For raising these two questions, Jaswant Singh
was abducted from his home in broad daylight.

01:17:48.855 --> 01:17:51.021
Only a few days ago, right here...

01:17:51.271 --> 01:17:55.896
Jaswant Singh told the world who’d be to blame
if something were to happen to him.

01:17:56.771 --> 01:18:01.480
And I demand to know from this country’s
Supreme Court and the Punjab government.

01:18:03.146 --> 01:18:04.730
Where is Jaswant Singh?

01:18:05.771 --> 01:18:08.146
People do not simply vanish into thin air.

01:18:09.063 --> 01:18:12.938
This court gives the Punjab Police two months...

01:18:13.813 --> 01:18:15.605
to find Jaswant Singh

01:18:16.188 --> 01:18:17.855
and present him in court.

01:18:18.105 --> 01:18:20.896
And if they are unsuccessful,

01:18:21.688 --> 01:18:24.646
the court will order a CBI inquiry into this case.

01:18:25.813 --> 01:18:28.480
It’s a simple case of disappearance, Mr. Bohra.

01:18:29.813 --> 01:18:31.313
There’s no conspiracy here.

01:18:32.605 --> 01:18:35.021
This case has become an embarrassment for us.

01:18:36.646 --> 01:18:38.146
Punjab's image is getting tainted.

01:18:39.271 --> 01:18:42.063
And New Delhi isn’t happy about this either.

01:18:43.521 --> 01:18:46.480
‘Image handling’ is a politician’s job,
Mr. Bohra,

01:18:47.438 --> 01:18:48.438
not the police’s.

01:18:49.021 --> 01:18:51.813
I have eliminated militancy in Punjab.

01:18:52.688 --> 01:18:56.605
And it was New Delhi that gave
me this responsibility.

01:18:57.730 --> 01:19:01.521
And when you’re dealing with terrorism,
you have to be ruthless.

01:19:02.813 --> 01:19:04.521
If I have blood on my hands,

01:19:05.688 --> 01:19:06.521
so do they.

01:19:08.188 --> 01:19:09.938
Times have changed, Mr. Bitta.

01:19:11.396 --> 01:19:12.438
And so has New Delhi's intentions.

01:19:14.188 --> 01:19:15.396
And as for Punjab...

01:19:16.605 --> 01:19:19.396
I will not let it remain a police state any longer.

01:19:20.521 --> 01:19:22.480
You did your job. Just step aside...

01:19:23.313 --> 01:19:25.105
and let bureaucracy take over.

01:19:25.730 --> 01:19:30.396
The Supreme Court has given you two months.

01:19:31.688 --> 01:19:32.438
I suggest...

01:19:33.521 --> 01:19:34.938
... you use it to find Jaswant Singh.

01:19:35.730 --> 01:19:38.063
Jaswant Singh is a case of disappearance,

01:19:39.938 --> 01:19:41.605
so it could take some time.

01:19:42.105 --> 01:19:45.355
You’re retiring in three months, remember?

01:19:46.688 --> 01:19:50.813
Your government has promised me
an extension, Mr. Bohra.

01:19:51.563 --> 01:19:54.646
Then let’s assume...

01:19:54.813 --> 01:19:57.188
... you need Jaswant Singh’s
signature on your extension letter.

01:19:59.230 --> 01:20:00.188
Okay?

01:20:02.313 --> 01:20:02.855
Sir.

01:20:03.313 --> 01:20:06.521
In this country, things get done only
when New Delhi gets moving.

01:20:07.646 --> 01:20:10.438
The time given to the Punjab Police was up,

01:20:11.146 --> 01:20:13.938
while international pressure kept mounting.

01:20:15.480 --> 01:20:19.396
And the Supreme Court decided to hand
this case to the CBI.

01:20:19.813 --> 01:20:21.730
And finding Jaswant Singh...

01:20:21.938 --> 01:20:23.021
was now my responsibility.

01:20:48.813 --> 01:20:51.771
'Association of Disappeared People'
'Amritsar, Punjab'

01:20:53.730 --> 01:20:54.355
Paramjit Kaur?

01:20:56.480 --> 01:20:57.313
Yes?

01:20:58.563 --> 01:20:59.313
That’s me.

01:21:04.063 --> 01:21:07.396
Samudra Singh, Additional Director, CBI Delhi.

01:21:08.980 --> 01:21:10.313
We need to talk to you.

01:21:16.730 --> 01:21:17.688
6th September...

01:21:19.813 --> 01:21:20.896
Forgive me...

01:21:22.146 --> 01:21:24.855
You must have recalled this day
several times.

01:21:26.563 --> 01:21:27.688
But if you would still...

01:21:28.563 --> 01:21:29.313
Sure.

01:21:33.563 --> 01:21:36.355
Like every day, I left with the kids for school...

01:21:37.063 --> 01:21:41.605
There was a police jeep parked at the
turning with some men in plain clothes.

01:21:41.938 --> 01:21:42.980
They were looking at me.

01:21:43.230 --> 01:21:44.896
Do you recognise any of them?

01:21:50.771 --> 01:21:51.355
Then?

01:21:52.355 --> 01:21:53.480
Then around 9:30,

01:21:54.063 --> 01:21:56.188
Hari Singh said there was an urgent
phone call from home.

01:21:57.438 --> 01:21:58.021
Hello...

01:21:59.271 --> 01:22:00.146
Sanjiv?

01:22:00.730 --> 01:22:02.063
It was Sanjiv on the call.

01:22:03.230 --> 01:22:05.188
He told me what happened.

01:22:05.855 --> 01:22:07.604
Sanjiv, the eye-witness?

01:22:07.605 --> 01:22:08.521
Yes.

01:22:10.521 --> 01:22:11.230
And the police?

01:22:12.688 --> 01:22:13.938
Yeah, yeah, Jaswant Singh.

01:22:15.105 --> 01:22:16.230
Everyone knows him.

01:22:17.646 --> 01:22:19.021
He’s in the newspapers everyday.

01:22:19.355 --> 01:22:22.688
But that doesn't mean we'll buy
any story you sell.

01:22:23.271 --> 01:22:25.021
He saw it with his own eyes.

01:22:25.438 --> 01:22:27.437
They picked him up outside his
house in broad daylight.

01:22:27.438 --> 01:22:28.688
He must be mistaken.

01:22:29.938 --> 01:22:32.521
Why would Tarn Taran cops pick up
a guy in Amritsar?

01:22:33.188 --> 01:22:34.646
It’s out of their jurisdiction.

01:22:35.730 --> 01:22:38.105
You can't write cock-and-bull
in the report.

01:22:40.480 --> 01:22:41.396
Go on.

01:22:46.980 --> 01:22:49.771
Some time later, I returned
home with the kids.

01:22:51.605 --> 01:22:54.813
It felt like all the cops in Amritsar
were at my house.

01:22:55.938 --> 01:22:57.188
Whether to support or to intimidate...

01:22:57.938 --> 01:22:58.771
... was unclear.

01:22:58.896 --> 01:23:00.313
'DISAPPEARED - JASWANT SINGH'

01:23:01.105 --> 01:23:03.605
The police have written ‘disappeared’
and shut the files.

01:23:04.396 --> 01:23:06.355
But we have no other choice.

01:23:08.438 --> 01:23:10.146
We have to fight this fight ourselves.

01:23:13.855 --> 01:23:14.813
Thank you.

01:23:15.813 --> 01:23:17.938
We’ll meet again if we need to.

01:23:18.855 --> 01:23:19.563
Goodbye.

01:23:22.605 --> 01:23:24.063
At least they used to return the bodies before.

01:23:24.771 --> 01:23:27.855
But seeing the condition they were returned
in would make anyone rise up

01:23:28.563 --> 01:23:31.355
That's why cops started declaring
them ‘unclaimed’ and burning them.

01:23:32.396 --> 01:23:34.313
Jaswant’s files have every little detail.

01:23:35.313 --> 01:23:38.396
From the cremation lists to the
municipality records.

01:23:39.063 --> 01:23:40.896
But now you won’t find anything there either.

01:23:41.105 --> 01:23:44.396
The government has sealed all the
cremation records.

01:23:45.230 --> 01:23:46.688
And whatever’s left...

01:23:47.563 --> 01:23:48.230
... is here.

01:23:49.021 --> 01:23:50.313
Approximately 6,500.

01:24:01.605 --> 01:24:03.438
We were preparing to go
to a press conference.

01:24:04.855 --> 01:24:06.021
You see that terrace...

01:24:07.896 --> 01:24:08.938
There was one lady.

01:24:10.521 --> 01:24:11.563
I think she also saw.

01:24:12.521 --> 01:24:17.188
I saw some men pushing Jaswant Singh
into a red Omni.

01:24:17.813 --> 01:24:19.438
I even tried to stop them.

01:24:19.896 --> 01:24:23.021
I immediately recognised they were cops.
Immediately, over here.

01:24:23.521 --> 01:24:26.605
I saw DSP Jagpal Singh, SI Tejinder Singh

01:24:26.813 --> 01:24:28.396
and SI Ajay Kumar.

01:24:28.521 --> 01:24:31.563
And as I was working with Punjab Daily
at that point of time,

01:24:32.355 --> 01:24:35.646
I know it was Tarn Taran police which
had abducted Mr. Jaswant Singh.

01:24:36.730 --> 01:24:37.730
Myself Sanjiv Singh...

01:24:38.230 --> 01:24:40.438
Punjab Daily, ex.

01:24:45.813 --> 01:24:46.771
Was anyone else there?

01:24:48.438 --> 01:24:48.980
Pardon?

01:24:52.313 --> 01:24:56.063
There were 2-3 men in the Gypsy behind,

01:24:56.563 --> 01:24:57.105
I...

01:24:57.855 --> 01:24:59.438
I tried but...

01:24:59.980 --> 01:25:01.938
I couldn’t get a good look.

01:25:04.105 --> 01:25:07.188
At around 9:30 in the morning,
I was coming home with groceries.

01:25:08.438 --> 01:25:12.146
when I heard the sound of a car.
Honking loudly.

01:25:12.646 --> 01:25:15.021
I turned and saw a red Omni
coming up really fast.

01:25:16.105 --> 01:25:18.021
As it slowed down to take the turn,

01:25:19.105 --> 01:25:20.730
my gaze fell inside the car.

01:25:20.980 --> 01:25:23.521
“Tarn Taran police has abducted me!”

01:25:23.730 --> 01:25:24.896
Jaswant Singh was inside.

01:25:25.688 --> 01:25:26.813
What else did you see?

01:25:28.146 --> 01:25:29.230
The car’s licence plate.

01:25:30.730 --> 01:25:32.063
DMT-1313.

01:25:33.521 --> 01:25:35.313
If you have to testify in court,

01:25:37.105 --> 01:25:38.105
you won’t hesitate?

01:25:43.563 --> 01:25:46.688
There were 3-4 men in a red car.

01:25:47.813 --> 01:25:49.355
First they approached Jaswant Singh.

01:25:50.063 --> 01:25:51.021
A few words were exchanged...

01:25:51.896 --> 01:25:53.896
then they forced him
into the car and left.

01:25:54.605 --> 01:25:55.438
Were they cops?

01:25:55.813 --> 01:25:56.396
No...

01:25:57.438 --> 01:25:58.146
Can't say...

01:25:58.771 --> 01:26:00.313
They were all in plain clothes.

01:26:01.105 --> 01:26:02.646
Do you remember anyone's face?

01:26:04.230 --> 01:26:07.313
No, they all had their backs towards me.

01:26:07.646 --> 01:26:09.063
That's all I saw.

01:26:12.438 --> 01:26:14.146
Is Tejinder there?
- Who are you?

01:26:14.771 --> 01:26:17.063
You can't just barge in...
- Lady, leave the way.

01:26:17.521 --> 01:26:18.355
Who are you?

01:26:18.480 --> 01:26:20.063
CBI, Delhi.

01:26:22.188 --> 01:26:23.063
Hold up, sir...

01:26:23.938 --> 01:26:24.980
Where are you off to this
bright and early?

01:26:25.480 --> 01:26:27.770
Going to pick up the DSP.
- I see...

01:26:27.771 --> 01:26:28.396
You are...?

01:26:28.855 --> 01:26:30.021
DSP Jagpal Singh?

01:26:30.188 --> 01:26:30.730
Yes...

01:26:31.646 --> 01:26:33.438
Let's pick him up together.
- What?

01:26:33.563 --> 01:26:35.688
Let's go!
- Let go of my hand.

01:26:41.355 --> 01:26:42.855
Looking sharp, inspector!

01:26:44.188 --> 01:26:45.563
Need to talk to you. Let's go.

01:26:47.396 --> 01:26:48.271
Come on.

01:26:49.355 --> 01:26:50.313
What's the rush?

01:26:51.230 --> 01:26:52.605
We're leaving for a colleague's wedding.

01:26:53.938 --> 01:26:55.105
Come back in two days.

01:26:59.730 --> 01:27:01.771
It's not your wedding, it's your colleague's.

01:27:02.438 --> 01:27:03.605
It'll happen without you.

01:27:03.980 --> 01:27:06.688
Picking us up like this
without any prior notice...

01:27:07.313 --> 01:27:08.188
It's not right.

01:27:08.896 --> 01:27:11.688
Well, at least you can tell between
right and wrong.

01:27:12.438 --> 01:27:13.771
Now spill it, where is Jaswant Singh?

01:27:14.605 --> 01:27:15.480
Jaswant Singh who?

01:27:15.896 --> 01:27:17.855
Which Jaswant Singh are you
talking about?

01:27:18.730 --> 01:27:21.521
The one everyone in Punjab
is talking about.

01:27:22.730 --> 01:27:25.521
Delhi, London, Canada...

01:27:26.396 --> 01:27:27.396
Everywhere.

01:27:28.355 --> 01:27:29.355
He’s disappeared.

01:27:31.230 --> 01:27:32.688
But we’ve written up a report.

01:27:33.813 --> 01:27:35.313
The police is doing its job.

01:27:35.813 --> 01:27:38.980
If the police was doing its job, we wouldn’t
have had to come from Delhi.

01:27:40.521 --> 01:27:42.271
I was at Hemkund Sahib Gurudwara
to pay my respects.

01:27:43.146 --> 01:27:45.938
And I wasn’t alone. There were 27 of us.

01:27:49.021 --> 01:27:50.438
You can ask anyone.

01:27:50.896 --> 01:27:51.980
You must have stayed the night then?

01:27:54.230 --> 01:27:56.730
Devlok Guesthouse. It’s nearby.
You can find out.

01:27:57.021 --> 01:27:59.188
There are witnesses who saw you.

01:27:59.438 --> 01:28:02.605
In Amritsar, on 6th September.

01:28:03.563 --> 01:28:04.855
We have their testimony.

01:28:05.521 --> 01:28:07.438
Their testimony is mistaken.

01:28:08.646 --> 01:28:10.313
And who are these eye-witnesses?

01:28:14.355 --> 01:28:16.105
You know what ‘alibi’ means?

01:28:18.105 --> 01:28:19.771
Of course you do, you're CBI after all.

01:28:21.646 --> 01:28:23.271
We’ve got 16 of them.

01:28:25.146 --> 01:28:26.855
Ask anyone at the police station.

01:28:28.855 --> 01:28:30.355
They’ll tell you where we were.

01:28:34.730 --> 01:28:37.480
Looks like they’re all from
the same school.

01:28:46.521 --> 01:28:48.355
Let’s see.

01:28:49.938 --> 01:28:53.063
Neither did we have any complaint
about Jaswant Singh,

01:28:53.438 --> 01:28:56.605
nor did anyone have anything
against the man.

01:28:58.188 --> 01:28:59.605
So why would we pick him up?

01:29:00.980 --> 01:29:02.105
Without reason.

01:29:03.063 --> 01:29:03.980
Reason?

01:29:06.313 --> 01:29:07.355
Here’s the reason.

01:29:17.605 --> 01:29:20.438
He exposed your entire operation.

01:29:21.438 --> 01:29:22.855
In front of the whole world.

01:29:23.230 --> 01:29:26.813
And for fear of enquiry,
you made him disappear.

01:29:29.021 --> 01:29:30.355
Who gave you the order?

01:29:31.563 --> 01:29:32.605
Order...

01:29:35.646 --> 01:29:37.938
We’ve always had only one order.

01:29:39.855 --> 01:29:41.230
To eliminate terrorism.

01:29:43.521 --> 01:29:44.438
At any cost.

01:29:46.980 --> 01:29:48.438
You watch the news, don't you?

01:29:51.105 --> 01:29:53.188
You see their weapons on the
9 o’ clock news.

01:29:54.271 --> 01:29:59.480
AK-47, LMG, hand grenades, rocket launchers...

01:30:01.980 --> 01:30:03.605
That’s what we’re fighting against.

01:30:05.688 --> 01:30:06.896
For the last ten years.

01:30:09.938 --> 01:30:10.855
Everyday.

01:30:11.771 --> 01:30:12.771
Day and night.

01:30:17.771 --> 01:30:19.146
You talk about orders.

01:30:20.980 --> 01:30:23.355
Which of these weapons
did Jaswant Singh have?

01:30:32.646 --> 01:30:33.771
Who’s behind all this?

01:30:38.230 --> 01:30:39.230
Sugga?

01:30:41.480 --> 01:30:42.605
He’s in Chandigarh.

01:30:44.480 --> 01:30:45.563
He's back in two days.

01:30:50.105 --> 01:30:51.146
Ask him yourself.

01:31:09.813 --> 01:31:10.605
Sir!

01:31:15.146 --> 01:31:17.021
1313 red Omni. It's one of your cars?

01:31:17.480 --> 01:31:18.980
Of course it’s mine, sir.

01:31:19.230 --> 01:31:23.063
Number one taxi service from
Jalandhar to Ludhiana.

01:31:24.480 --> 01:31:26.355
Where was your 1313 on 6th September?

01:31:27.896 --> 01:31:29.688
Probably on a booking, sir.

01:31:31.230 --> 01:31:32.313
Why, what happened?

01:31:34.563 --> 01:31:36.271
There’s no entry in your bill book.

01:31:37.563 --> 01:31:39.480
It’s just crossed out in red here.

01:31:40.063 --> 01:31:42.896
Oh, that’s our code for government bookings.

01:31:44.063 --> 01:31:48.188
No entries or bookings needed
for you folks obviously.

01:31:48.896 --> 01:31:49.396
Right?

01:31:50.730 --> 01:31:52.730
Us folks? What do you mean?

01:31:53.021 --> 01:31:54.980
It’s clear, isn’t it?

01:31:55.313 --> 01:31:57.271
You folks... cops.

01:31:58.063 --> 01:31:58.938
And who were these cops?

01:31:59.105 --> 01:32:03.188
Inspector Shivender Singh and
SI Harinder Singh.

01:32:04.105 --> 01:32:05.480
From Tarn Taran.

01:32:06.771 --> 01:32:08.105
They took the car.

01:32:08.605 --> 01:32:09.396
When did they take it?

01:32:09.771 --> 01:32:12.563
On 5th evening. They said
they were going out of town.

01:32:13.355 --> 01:32:16.563
But they brought the car back
in two days, on the 7th.

01:32:18.646 --> 01:32:20.063
But sir, what’s the matter?

01:32:21.396 --> 01:32:23.063
Where’s your 1313 right now?

01:32:42.146 --> 01:32:43.063
Hold my beer.

01:33:16.605 --> 01:33:17.396
Your acquaintance?

01:33:19.396 --> 01:33:20.438
Greetings.

01:33:21.063 --> 01:33:22.521
We’re friends of the groom.

01:33:22.646 --> 01:33:23.395
I see.

01:33:23.396 --> 01:33:24.895
Just arrived from Delhi.

01:33:24.896 --> 01:33:26.105
From Delhi?
- Yes.

01:33:26.355 --> 01:33:28.355
To surprise him.
- Oh wow...

01:33:28.646 --> 01:33:29.480
And you?

01:33:30.105 --> 01:33:30.688
Myself?

01:33:32.188 --> 01:33:33.063
Harinder Singh.

01:33:33.438 --> 01:33:34.188
Sub-insector.

01:33:34.688 --> 01:33:35.813
Tarn Taran police.

01:33:36.438 --> 01:33:38.855
Best man and best friend.

01:33:39.021 --> 01:33:40.271
Oh wonderful!

01:33:40.771 --> 01:33:42.354
And where is Mr. Inspector?

01:33:42.355 --> 01:33:43.563
Mr. Inspector?

01:33:43.855 --> 01:33:46.271
Come with me,
I’ll take you to him.

01:33:46.771 --> 01:33:48.146
Come on.

01:33:48.396 --> 01:33:50.021
Let's make you meet your friend.

01:33:51.980 --> 01:33:53.980
Mind the step. Mind it.

01:33:56.980 --> 01:33:57.855
Mr. Inspector.

01:33:59.230 --> 01:34:01.521
Mr. Inspector!

01:34:03.355 --> 01:34:05.855
Look who it is!

01:34:10.355 --> 01:34:11.688
Surprise!

01:34:13.938 --> 01:34:14.521
Who are they?

01:34:16.730 --> 01:34:17.938
Not friends?

01:34:22.146 --> 01:34:23.271
CBI, Delhi.

01:34:27.813 --> 01:34:29.146
Congratulations on the wedding.

01:34:37.230 --> 01:34:38.105
I was there only...

01:34:39.313 --> 01:34:40.355
... on 6th September.

01:34:41.313 --> 01:34:42.313
In Dharamshala.

01:34:44.730 --> 01:34:45.646
For my engagement.

01:34:48.438 --> 01:34:49.605
You took this Omni?

01:34:51.021 --> 01:34:52.063
1313?

01:34:59.896 --> 01:35:00.896
You were with him as well?

01:35:03.980 --> 01:35:04.938
You were with him?

01:35:05.521 --> 01:35:06.896
Yeah, so?

01:35:11.521 --> 01:35:14.355
This Omni was used to adbuct Jaswant Singh
on 6th September.

01:35:16.813 --> 01:35:17.980
There are eye-witnesses.

01:35:19.313 --> 01:35:20.605
They’re mistaken.

01:35:21.521 --> 01:35:23.105
I was on leave from the 5th.

01:35:23.355 --> 01:35:24.021
Really?

01:35:25.021 --> 01:35:28.271
We found an entry in your name at
Kang police station, on 5th September.

01:35:29.188 --> 01:35:31.063
You locked up some Kehar Singh there.

01:35:31.938 --> 01:35:34.063
How? You were on leave.

01:35:37.063 --> 01:35:38.438
And why did you put him in Kang?

01:35:40.646 --> 01:35:41.771
Isn’t he in charge there?

01:35:44.355 --> 01:35:46.188
First I took him to Tarn Taran and Jhabal.

01:35:46.980 --> 01:35:49.021
Cells were full so I brought him to Kang.

01:35:51.105 --> 01:35:52.688
And?
- And nothing.

01:35:53.980 --> 01:35:55.771
I left for Dharamshala the next day.

01:35:57.271 --> 01:35:58.271
On 6th September.

01:35:58.896 --> 01:35:59.855
You can check if you want.

01:36:01.105 --> 01:36:02.438
Oh I’ve checked everything.

01:36:04.855 --> 01:36:08.355
It takes half a lifetime for a sub-inspector
to make inspector.

01:36:10.021 --> 01:36:11.855
You made it in less than ten months.

01:36:13.605 --> 01:36:14.729
And in these ten months,

01:36:14.730 --> 01:36:16.563
both your names are mentioned

01:36:17.896 --> 01:36:20.188
in firewood receipts of
21 unclaimed cremations.

01:36:21.730 --> 01:36:22.438
How come?

01:36:24.730 --> 01:36:29.105
I guess only your Jaswant Singh
can answer that question.

01:36:30.355 --> 01:36:32.105
And where is our Jaswant Singh?

01:36:35.563 --> 01:36:37.230
Since you’ve found out this much already...

01:36:38.146 --> 01:36:39.146
Find him as well.

01:36:41.938 --> 01:36:43.480
You’ll get all your answers.

01:36:47.271 --> 01:36:49.646
Jaswant Singh was a known name.

01:36:50.605 --> 01:36:54.230
So they would never make the mistake
of keeping him in Tarn Taran or Jhabal.

01:36:57.355 --> 01:36:58.563
On 5th September,

01:36:59.230 --> 01:37:01.479
Kehar Singh was detained in
Kang police station.

01:37:01.480 --> 01:37:02.355
Why?

01:37:02.605 --> 01:37:04.230
Because they had empty cells.

01:37:04.896 --> 01:37:07.563
And on 7th September,
he was released.

01:37:09.563 --> 01:37:12.355
And Jaswant Singh was abducted
on 6th September.

01:37:14.396 --> 01:37:16.188
Maybe they brought him here too.

01:37:18.605 --> 01:37:19.480
Kang police station.

01:37:25.021 --> 01:37:27.438
And only one person can confirm this.

01:37:29.521 --> 01:37:30.480
Kehar Singh.

01:37:53.146 --> 01:37:55.938
I had a hearing in court on the 5th.

01:37:57.438 --> 01:38:02.438
After that, they detained me for two days.

01:38:03.521 --> 01:38:04.855
At Kang police station.

01:38:05.688 --> 01:38:06.605
Was anyone else there?

01:38:08.396 --> 01:38:11.188
No sir... not on the first night.

01:38:11.938 --> 01:38:12.605
Then...

01:38:13.021 --> 01:38:16.146
... on the second day, they brought
someone in the next cell.

01:38:17.646 --> 01:38:18.605
Who was it?

01:38:20.480 --> 01:38:22.188
Anything you saw, or remember?

01:38:22.730 --> 01:38:24.438
No I didn’t see him.

01:38:25.355 --> 01:38:26.980
But I heard his name.

01:38:28.021 --> 01:38:29.355
Some Jaswant Singh.

01:38:41.146 --> 01:38:42.480
Think hard.

01:38:44.105 --> 01:38:45.355
You sure you heard Jaswant Singh?

01:38:46.771 --> 01:38:48.938
Yes, it was Jaswant Singh.

01:38:50.146 --> 01:38:55.813
All the cops were shouting his
name, abusing him.

01:38:57.105 --> 01:38:58.813
Then later...

01:38:59.063 --> 01:39:00.938
... the SSP himself showed up.

01:39:02.271 --> 01:39:05.063
And he started beating him.

01:39:09.480 --> 01:39:10.230
Then?

01:39:10.938 --> 01:39:13.730
Then they left after a while,

01:39:14.438 --> 01:39:18.105
leaving one cop behind to stand guard.

01:39:20.313 --> 01:39:21.021
What’s his name?

01:39:23.146 --> 01:39:27.063
Don’t know his name, sir.
He wasn't in uniform.

01:39:27.980 --> 01:39:30.730
But yes... he had green eyes.

01:39:31.646 --> 01:39:32.688
Like emeralds.

01:39:33.438 --> 01:39:36.271
He brought me food that night.

01:39:42.021 --> 01:39:43.021
Will you be an official witness?

01:39:43.896 --> 01:39:44.521
What?

01:39:46.271 --> 01:39:47.521
Will you testify?

01:39:53.313 --> 01:39:55.813
We sold the farm to bring
him back once already.

01:39:56.605 --> 01:39:59.396
If they pick him up again,
I have nothing left to sell.

01:40:02.105 --> 01:40:03.146
Don’t worry.

01:40:05.688 --> 01:40:06.980
I’ll guarantee his safety.

01:40:11.855 --> 01:40:14.646
Pack of mongrels hunting for scraps.

01:40:16.771 --> 01:40:19.021
Let’s see how long they bark.

01:40:19.938 --> 01:40:22.105
As long as they bark and don't bite, sir.

01:40:22.730 --> 01:40:24.688
Sniffing around as they please.

01:40:25.688 --> 01:40:26.813
Wherever.

01:40:27.146 --> 01:40:28.688
They picked me up before my vows.

01:40:29.688 --> 01:40:31.688
Humiliated me in front of 400 guests.

01:40:32.438 --> 01:40:33.980
Then made me sit around all night.

01:40:35.271 --> 01:40:36.771
Is it right, sir?

01:40:37.230 --> 01:40:39.521
They raided three police stations last evening.

01:40:42.855 --> 01:40:44.188
Picked up some files as well.

01:40:45.980 --> 01:40:48.230
When there’s nothing in those files,

01:40:49.980 --> 01:40:50.855
what will they find?

01:40:53.480 --> 01:40:54.396
Get the bottle!

01:40:56.938 --> 01:40:59.355
When you’ve done nothing wrong,

01:41:01.021 --> 01:41:01.980
why are you worried?

01:41:03.230 --> 01:41:04.563
Just remember...

01:41:05.938 --> 01:41:07.646
that we are Punjab Police.

01:41:10.021 --> 01:41:11.896
And as far as I remember,

01:41:12.521 --> 01:41:16.396
the name of this state is still Punjab.

01:41:17.855 --> 01:41:18.980
Hasn’t changed.

01:41:21.480 --> 01:41:22.396
Got it?

01:41:28.271 --> 01:41:29.188
Okay...

01:41:30.105 --> 01:41:31.146
Now, get lost.

01:41:32.771 --> 01:41:33.521
Sir.

01:41:36.230 --> 01:41:36.771
Sir.

01:42:04.438 --> 01:42:05.313
6th September.

01:42:07.146 --> 01:42:08.396
Remember where you were?

01:42:10.230 --> 01:42:11.021
Chandigarh.

01:42:13.105 --> 01:42:14.146
At my niece’s wedding.

01:42:16.230 --> 01:42:17.813
I kept a prayer on the 6th.

01:42:20.021 --> 01:42:21.771
You must be knowing Jaswant Singh.

01:42:23.230 --> 01:42:24.355
The human rights fellow...

01:42:25.563 --> 01:42:26.896
... who’s disappeared these days.

01:42:28.271 --> 01:42:29.480
I’ve seen him in newspapers.

01:42:37.813 --> 01:42:42.313
Jaswant Singh mentioned you
in his last speech.

01:42:42.896 --> 01:42:45.688
And he also said that if anything
happens to him,

01:42:48.021 --> 01:42:49.855
... then who would be responsible.

01:42:53.146 --> 01:42:53.813
Anything to say?

01:43:00.605 --> 01:43:01.813
You’re an educated man.

01:43:05.063 --> 01:43:06.271
Tell me something.

01:43:09.063 --> 01:43:10.230
Today if I say...

01:43:11.521 --> 01:43:13.688
if something happens to me then
you’ll be responsible,

01:43:15.521 --> 01:43:17.771
and if something actually happens
to me tomorrow...

01:43:18.980 --> 01:43:20.188
then are you responsible?

01:43:22.188 --> 01:43:23.355
You’ll go to jail?

01:43:35.771 --> 01:43:36.563
Tea.

01:43:39.021 --> 01:43:42.688
You’re involved in over a thousand
abductions and extrajudicial killings.

01:43:43.813 --> 01:43:46.646
So it's clear why he’d take your name.

01:43:49.146 --> 01:43:51.105
Extrajudicial killings.

01:43:53.396 --> 01:43:55.605
You were in Delhi Police before you
joined the CBI, right?

01:43:57.146 --> 01:43:57.855
In ’86?

01:44:01.688 --> 01:44:04.980
You were present in Delhi’s Trilokpuri
riots in ’84, weren’t you?

01:44:09.813 --> 01:44:11.271
How many did you kill in ’84?

01:44:13.063 --> 01:44:14.688
And which killings were those?

01:44:15.563 --> 01:44:17.480
Judicial or extrajudicial?

01:44:24.021 --> 01:44:24.730
Sugar?

01:44:30.188 --> 01:44:32.271
You don’t have the depth, Samudra Singh,

01:44:34.605 --> 01:44:36.771
to conceal all the secrets of ’84.

01:44:43.313 --> 01:44:44.605
Mr. Sugga.

01:44:47.188 --> 01:44:50.230
Recounting ’84 won’t change
the figures of ’95.

01:44:52.063 --> 01:44:54.146
It’s not just about one Jaswant Singh.

01:44:55.771 --> 01:44:57.230
It’s about thousands more.

01:44:59.813 --> 01:45:01.105
You’ll have to account for them.

01:45:03.396 --> 01:45:05.646
Punjab’s account has always been complicated.

01:45:10.771 --> 01:45:15.396
We’re fighting those who don’t
get captured, only killed.

01:45:17.688 --> 01:45:20.980
They killed DIG Sabarwal on the steps
of the Golden Temple.

01:45:23.438 --> 01:45:26.230
Nobody went near the body for six hours.

01:45:28.355 --> 01:45:31.438
You need to call the army to
kill these people.

01:45:34.063 --> 01:45:36.730
Even cannons fall short.

01:45:38.063 --> 01:45:41.480
One bullet of ours is fired in
response to how many of theirs...

01:45:43.021 --> 01:45:44.855
an outsider like you won’t understand.

01:45:51.355 --> 01:45:52.646
You know what a vice is?

01:45:56.480 --> 01:45:58.688
You have your head in a vice.

01:46:00.480 --> 01:46:02.563
Pressure from above or below...

01:46:03.980 --> 01:46:05.230
You’re the one getting squeezed.

01:46:07.480 --> 01:46:10.271
Sooner or later, you’ll have to
answer for Jaswant Singh.

01:46:10.896 --> 01:46:13.563
Here... or in court.

01:46:15.605 --> 01:46:16.480
Remember that.

01:46:17.855 --> 01:46:19.230
We’ll meet again.

01:46:25.646 --> 01:46:29.063
It’s been two-and-a-half months since
Jaswant Singh’s disappearance.

01:46:30.438 --> 01:46:33.855
But the Punjab government is still silent.

01:46:34.980 --> 01:46:36.646
Perhaps they aren’t aware

01:46:37.605 --> 01:46:41.521
that Jaswant Singh isn’t just
the name of a man.

01:46:42.063 --> 01:46:44.855
Jaswant Singh is the name of a cause.

01:46:45.646 --> 01:46:47.438
This is no ordinary fight,

01:46:48.105 --> 01:46:50.896
but the fight of a brother of the unclaimed,

01:46:51.355 --> 01:46:54.646
who openly challenged the government.

01:46:55.688 --> 01:46:57.605
This is a fight for what's right.

01:46:57.980 --> 01:47:01.105
Jaswant Singh! Jaswant Singh!

01:47:01.521 --> 01:47:03.729
Brothers of the Unclaimed!

01:47:03.730 --> 01:47:13.188
Jaswant Singh! Jaswant Singh!

01:47:13.688 --> 01:47:15.730
I quit the job at the library.

01:47:20.063 --> 01:47:21.813
This fight is a full-time job.

01:47:23.813 --> 01:47:24.855
What brings you here?

01:47:30.688 --> 01:47:31.980
We found a new witness.

01:47:32.230 --> 01:47:32.980
Kehar Singh.

01:47:34.313 --> 01:47:36.230
He says that on 6th September...

01:47:37.021 --> 01:47:39.021
Jaswant Singh was held at
Kang police station.

01:47:39.771 --> 01:47:41.146
In the next cell.

01:47:42.313 --> 01:47:44.396
Now we have three witnesses.

01:47:45.105 --> 01:47:46.438
And very soon,

01:47:46.646 --> 01:47:48.688
we'll appeal to the court for the hearing.

01:48:51.271 --> 01:48:51.980
Anyone home?

01:49:10.563 --> 01:49:11.188
Sugga.

01:49:15.605 --> 01:49:17.021
Diwali is in two days,

01:49:18.271 --> 01:49:19.646
so I brought something for the kids.

01:49:27.271 --> 01:49:28.355
Sparklers.

01:49:30.146 --> 01:49:31.355
Bomb?

01:49:32.188 --> 01:49:34.230
How about a spinner?

01:49:35.438 --> 01:49:36.063
Spinner.

01:49:43.313 --> 01:49:45.063
Here, go play. Spinner.

01:49:59.438 --> 01:50:00.438
Stubborn.

01:50:03.188 --> 01:50:04.146
Like his father.

01:50:08.396 --> 01:50:09.896
I won’t lie, sister.

01:50:12.021 --> 01:50:13.063
Small, big,

01:50:14.438 --> 01:50:15.563
old, young...

01:50:17.646 --> 01:50:18.771
I’ve killed many.

01:50:20.896 --> 01:50:23.063
But I didn’t touch your Jaswant Singh.

01:50:26.605 --> 01:50:28.938
We want to help you.

01:50:30.396 --> 01:50:31.896
We want to find him and
bring him to you.

01:50:33.688 --> 01:50:34.938
Then find him.

01:50:36.355 --> 01:50:38.188
It’s your duty.

01:50:40.146 --> 01:50:41.313
But how?

01:50:43.688 --> 01:50:45.896
You’re blaming us as well, aren’t you?

01:50:51.688 --> 01:50:54.438
Retract your statement against the police.

01:50:59.646 --> 01:51:00.771
And we’ll find him and
bring him back.

01:51:02.396 --> 01:51:03.355
To you.

01:51:04.521 --> 01:51:05.230
To your kids.

01:51:08.438 --> 01:51:11.271
Then you can take asylum.
America, Canada, London...

01:51:11.938 --> 01:51:12.771
wherever.

01:51:17.688 --> 01:51:19.105
And we’ll forget everything as well.

01:51:26.896 --> 01:51:30.730
Even Jaswant Singh wouldn’t agree
to return on these terms.

01:51:31.396 --> 01:51:32.855
So how will you bring him?

01:51:34.313 --> 01:51:36.521
You don’t know Jaswant Singh.

01:51:38.896 --> 01:51:39.813
I do.

01:51:45.563 --> 01:51:46.730
You can leave.

01:51:54.980 --> 01:51:56.396
And please take these with you.

01:51:59.813 --> 01:52:01.021
Put them up in your police station.

01:52:01.813 --> 01:52:03.146
It'll be appreciated.

01:52:15.396 --> 01:52:17.521
Since you know Jaswant Singh so well...

01:52:22.105 --> 01:52:23.771
Then know this as well.

01:52:26.271 --> 01:52:30.021
If I have to answer for 25,000 corpses,

01:52:32.146 --> 01:52:34.146
Then I’ll answer for 25,001.

01:52:39.230 --> 01:52:40.396
Remember that.

01:53:09.188 --> 01:53:09.896
Sir...

01:53:11.105 --> 01:53:12.188
End of an era.

01:53:15.480 --> 01:53:17.146
My untimely retirement

01:53:17.896 --> 01:53:19.855
is a new year's gift to the militants.

01:53:20.355 --> 01:53:22.855
I hope the new government
has thought this through.

01:53:23.730 --> 01:53:26.313
And I also hope that Mr. Varma

01:53:26.813 --> 01:53:30.688
continues to preserve the dignity
of the uniform, as I have.

01:53:32.021 --> 01:53:33.980
I’m not much of a speech man.

01:53:35.063 --> 01:53:37.813
I prefer to be brief and straight.

01:53:39.938 --> 01:53:43.563
My aim is to sanitize and sensitize the force,

01:53:44.480 --> 01:53:46.230
without lowering our guard.

01:53:46.938 --> 01:53:48.021
For the past few years,

01:53:50.021 --> 01:53:52.730
because of a few police officers,

01:53:53.771 --> 01:53:55.271
not just Punjab Police,

01:53:55.896 --> 01:53:58.313
but the whole state
has suffered disrepute.

01:53:59.396 --> 01:54:00.313
But...

01:54:01.146 --> 01:54:03.271
we will not repeat their mistakes.

01:54:04.271 --> 01:54:07.063
And for this I need your support.

01:54:07.980 --> 01:54:12.396
The fear that Punjab’s people
have of the police...

01:54:13.813 --> 01:54:17.480
First we must eliminate that fear.

01:54:18.438 --> 01:54:21.105
And we must win back their trust.

01:54:21.646 --> 01:54:24.646
I’m sure I have your full support
in this mission.

01:54:27.896 --> 01:54:28.938
Thank you.

01:54:39.105 --> 01:54:41.938
‘Devil in Police Uniform.’

01:54:45.146 --> 01:54:46.896
‘Butcher of Gurdaspur.’

01:55:01.563 --> 01:55:02.688
‘Police or...

01:55:04.563 --> 01:55:05.563
ex... executioner’.

01:55:07.813 --> 01:55:10.688
What are the newspapers
writing about you...

01:55:11.230 --> 01:55:12.355
Ever read them?

01:55:18.521 --> 01:55:21.271
Now... where is Jaswant Singh?

01:55:22.896 --> 01:55:23.521
Sir?

01:55:27.021 --> 01:55:27.980
Jaswant Singh.

01:55:31.021 --> 01:55:31.938
He’s disappeared, sir.

01:55:34.521 --> 01:55:36.396
But we’re trying our best to find him.

01:55:37.438 --> 01:55:42.063
You’ve been trying for over two months.

01:55:43.188 --> 01:55:45.605
It takes some time, sir.

01:55:52.563 --> 01:55:53.605
Surjit Singh.

01:55:55.688 --> 01:55:58.355
I was DGP Intelligence before this.

01:55:59.646 --> 01:56:01.188
I know you very well.

01:56:03.146 --> 01:56:04.896
The CBI is already on your tail.

01:56:05.896 --> 01:56:07.771
An inquiry could start any day.

01:56:08.813 --> 01:56:11.771
Then all your pending cases will reopen.

01:56:14.021 --> 01:56:15.646
Getting away this time

01:56:16.438 --> 01:56:18.021
won't be so easy for you.

01:56:20.563 --> 01:56:22.646
You have seven days.

01:56:23.896 --> 01:56:25.521
I want Jaswant Singh.

01:56:26.646 --> 01:56:27.771
At any cost.

01:56:33.396 --> 01:56:34.396
Seven days.

01:56:39.271 --> 01:56:40.063
Yes, sir.

01:56:40.771 --> 01:56:42.438
He’s given me seven days.

01:56:43.271 --> 01:56:44.730
He says find Jaswant Singh.

01:56:45.646 --> 01:56:47.605
How do I find him, you tell me?

01:57:00.396 --> 01:57:02.396
The CBI has a hearing date
from the court.

01:57:03.896 --> 01:57:05.146
There were two eye-witnesses.

01:57:06.146 --> 01:57:07.396
Now there are three.

01:57:09.438 --> 01:57:11.896
Forget Jaswant Singh for now
and find out...

01:57:13.105 --> 01:57:14.521
who this third joker is.

01:57:46.355 --> 01:57:49.021
Move ahead.
- Come, next.

01:57:50.396 --> 01:57:51.938
Stop right there
- CBI, Delhi.

01:57:52.480 --> 01:57:54.146
Here they come sniffing around.

01:57:54.563 --> 01:57:57.230
You finish your report, and
meet me at the station.

01:57:57.521 --> 01:57:58.105
Yes sir.

01:57:58.230 --> 01:57:59.688
Killed in a raid last night.

01:58:14.730 --> 01:58:16.230
There’s no one home.

01:58:16.355 --> 01:58:18.938
Mr. Sanjiv left with his family two days ago.

01:58:19.771 --> 01:58:21.104
Did he say where they’re going?

01:58:21.105 --> 01:58:23.521
No, he didn’t say and I didn’t ask.

01:58:24.646 --> 01:58:25.355
They’ve left.

01:58:26.313 --> 01:58:27.771
Harpal’s house is also locked, sir.

01:58:28.605 --> 01:58:29.480
It’s empty.

01:58:32.771 --> 01:58:34.188
This is nothing...

01:58:34.813 --> 01:58:37.771
... but a complete mockery
of the judicial system.

01:58:38.355 --> 01:58:40.355
There were three strong witnesses in this case.

01:58:41.521 --> 01:58:42.563
Two of them are missing,

01:58:43.021 --> 01:58:44.188
... and one ends up dead.

01:58:44.521 --> 01:58:45.855
Just one day before the hearing.

01:58:46.438 --> 01:58:47.980
And the irony of the matter is...

01:58:48.355 --> 01:58:53.146
that despite several loopholes in their alibis,
these cops are still serving in the force.

01:58:53.730 --> 01:58:58.480
But Mr. Jais, there has to be at least one strong
piece of evidence to back up your claims.

01:58:58.813 --> 01:59:00.063
Just this isn’t enough.

01:59:04.521 --> 01:59:05.605
Your honour...

01:59:06.730 --> 01:59:07.646
A family...

01:59:08.688 --> 01:59:11.021
breaks their back day and night

01:59:11.271 --> 01:59:14.271
to raise and educate their kids.

01:59:14.896 --> 01:59:17.855
Then one day those kids, no more
than 20-22 years old, disappear.

01:59:18.438 --> 01:59:20.105
When they don’t return in a
few days, the parents

01:59:20.980 --> 01:59:23.730
go to the police, where they
are turned away.

01:59:24.146 --> 01:59:26.688
In fact they are told that their kids...

01:59:27.646 --> 01:59:28.605
... are with terrorists.

01:59:28.980 --> 01:59:30.563
For a little bit of money,
you'll get them back.

01:59:30.688 --> 01:59:31.813
Objection, your honour!

01:59:32.855 --> 01:59:34.730
Irrelevant to the case.
- Mr. Dahiya, please...

01:59:34.855 --> 01:59:35.979
Overruled.
- Let me finish.

01:59:35.980 --> 01:59:37.938
Mr. Jais, come to the point quickly.

01:59:39.313 --> 01:59:40.146
Your honour,

01:59:40.813 --> 01:59:44.479
by the time the parents somehow
gather the money,

01:59:44.480 --> 01:59:48.355
some other cop shows up and buys
those kids for a higher sum.

01:59:48.771 --> 01:59:52.730
and then kills them along
with the terrorists.

01:59:52.938 --> 01:59:54.355
And we all know the reason.

01:59:54.896 --> 01:59:58.396
Because more dead militants equals
bigger promotions. Am I right?

01:59:58.605 --> 02:00:00.896
Objection, your honour!
- Overruled.

02:00:03.563 --> 02:00:05.271
But it doesn’t end there.

02:00:07.146 --> 02:00:09.313
Then it's the turn of the poor parents.

02:00:09.855 --> 02:00:11.687
Those aged, helpless parents...

02:00:11.688 --> 02:00:15.188
are then harassed by branding
their children as terrorists.

02:00:15.521 --> 02:00:16.980
And you know why?

02:00:17.313 --> 02:00:19.313
To extort from them the same money

02:00:19.688 --> 02:00:22.646
they had arranged to save their children.

02:00:22.896 --> 02:00:23.896
Objection!

02:00:24.188 --> 02:00:26.437
This is a blatant attempt to
slander the police.

02:00:26.438 --> 02:00:27.605
Then tell me this...

02:00:28.063 --> 02:00:30.645
How are these cops, who were
constables ten months ago,

02:00:30.646 --> 02:00:34.230
sitting here as Inspectors today?
Do you have an answer?

02:00:34.730 --> 02:00:37.396
Your honour, the prosecution is insulting
the court with these fake stories.

02:00:37.771 --> 02:00:39.562
These are not stories, your honour.

02:00:39.563 --> 02:00:41.937
These are the details of the
petitions that those parents

02:00:41.938 --> 02:00:44.937
had filed against these policemen
in the high court.

02:00:44.938 --> 02:00:46.105
Please have a look at this.

02:00:48.771 --> 02:00:50.521
And these are the same officers, your honour...

02:00:51.230 --> 02:00:53.563
... that the eye-witnesses saw abducting
Jaswant Singh.

02:00:54.021 --> 02:00:55.396
Their recorded testimonies are included.

02:00:56.146 --> 02:00:57.438
But the trouble is...

02:00:57.688 --> 02:01:01.771
that they either turn hostile out of fear,
or turn up dead like Kehar Singh!

02:01:02.063 --> 02:01:04.812
The prosecution is making wild
accusations without any proof.

02:01:04.813 --> 02:01:06.855
Mr. Dahiya, please...
- Mr. Dahiya...

02:01:08.855 --> 02:01:12.605
Due to the serious allegations and
suspicious nature of this case.

02:01:13.021 --> 02:01:14.938
in the interest of public security,

02:01:15.230 --> 02:01:16.562
this court determines that

02:01:16.563 --> 02:01:17.980
DSP Jagpal Singh,

02:01:18.355 --> 02:01:20.146
Inspector Shivender Singh,

02:01:20.438 --> 02:01:25.605
sub-inspector Tejinder Singh, sub-inspector
Harinder Singh, inspector Ajay Kumar,

02:01:25.813 --> 02:01:31.188
and SSP Surjit Singh Sugga should be
suspended on immediate basis,

02:01:31.771 --> 02:01:33.271
until the final hearing.

02:01:38.605 --> 02:01:39.855
The court is adjourned.

02:01:47.521 --> 02:01:48.355
Told you...

02:01:51.563 --> 02:01:52.563
you’re the one getting squeezed.

02:01:55.730 --> 02:01:57.271
Your seniors have retired,

02:01:57.855 --> 02:01:59.313
and juniors suspended.

02:02:03.146 --> 02:02:05.563
All they have to do is start talking.

02:02:07.688 --> 02:02:09.271
And game over.

02:02:11.605 --> 02:02:12.855
Sugar?

02:02:16.438 --> 02:02:16.938
Mr. Sugga...

02:02:18.938 --> 02:02:19.980
Sugar?

02:02:33.438 --> 02:02:34.980
Give the phone to Bitta sir.

02:02:35.688 --> 02:02:37.646
He’s not at home. You are?

02:02:38.605 --> 02:02:41.355
SSP Tarn Taran. Sugga.

02:03:00.313 --> 02:03:01.313
Hello...

02:03:02.521 --> 02:03:03.855
Is Bitta sir back?

02:03:23.355 --> 02:03:24.396
Good boy.

02:03:32.438 --> 02:03:35.063
Hello.
- Sir, I’ve been calling for hours.

02:03:35.855 --> 02:03:39.938
But it looks like you’ve abandoned me.

02:03:41.105 --> 02:03:42.646
Are you drunk?

02:03:43.730 --> 02:03:44.980
Forgive me, sir...

02:03:45.563 --> 02:03:48.480
... but I’m losing my mind.

02:03:50.730 --> 02:03:52.646
I’ve always respected you, sir.

02:03:54.605 --> 02:04:00.105
I fired in any direction you pointed me in.

02:04:01.896 --> 02:04:04.730
Picked up anyone you told me to.

02:04:06.688 --> 02:04:08.771
You have Delhi behind you.

02:04:10.521 --> 02:04:12.480
Who do I have?

02:04:14.813 --> 02:04:15.730
Sugga...

02:04:16.230 --> 02:04:18.063
You’re not in your senses right now.

02:04:18.521 --> 02:04:19.896
We’ll talk later.

02:04:20.605 --> 02:04:21.730
I’ll handle it.

02:04:22.480 --> 02:04:26.605
You keep saying you’ll ‘handle it’...

02:04:28.771 --> 02:04:30.646
but nothing got handled, did it.

02:04:31.771 --> 02:04:33.688
Watch your tongue, Sugga!

02:04:34.813 --> 02:04:38.063
Nobody has ever talked to me this way.

02:04:38.813 --> 02:04:40.563
Then do something, sir.

02:04:41.230 --> 02:04:43.230
Get me transferred out of here.

02:04:43.813 --> 02:04:45.563
That’s what's best for everyone.

02:04:46.480 --> 02:04:47.480
Or else...

02:04:48.396 --> 02:04:50.021
... everyone goes down with me.

02:04:52.146 --> 02:04:53.896
Listen to me carefully...

02:04:54.813 --> 02:04:57.563
and do exactly as I say.

02:04:59.105 --> 02:05:00.730
I won’t let anything happen to you.

02:05:10.813 --> 02:05:13.146
Hey! Nobody follows me!

02:05:13.438 --> 02:05:14.896
Nobody! Move it!

02:05:40.438 --> 02:05:41.855
Move... Move back.

02:05:43.980 --> 02:05:45.771
We found this evidence in his pocket.

02:05:46.605 --> 02:05:47.980
Looks like a suicide note.

02:05:49.188 --> 02:05:50.688
Body was found in two pieces, sir.

02:05:51.438 --> 02:05:54.438
Head clean off the shoulders.
Was tough to recognize at first...

02:05:54.938 --> 02:05:56.063
Then we identified him.

02:06:07.646 --> 02:06:10.938
The Khalsa belongs to God,
Victory belongs to God.

02:06:11.980 --> 02:06:14.938
I am not here to grieve,

02:06:15.813 --> 02:06:18.980
but to pay tribute to a
brave police officer.

02:06:19.730 --> 02:06:21.188
At the peak of terrorism,

02:06:22.271 --> 02:06:25.563
Tarn Taran was considered to be the rocket...

02:06:26.938 --> 02:06:30.855
that would blow Punjab out of this country.

02:06:32.188 --> 02:06:34.938
In these circumstances, I was looking
for an officer...

02:06:35.313 --> 02:06:38.313
who had the courage to face the terrorists...

02:06:39.271 --> 02:06:42.855
... and mount a strong campaign against them.

02:06:43.521 --> 02:06:45.230
And in this situation,

02:06:46.063 --> 02:06:50.813
SSP Sugga was one such officer
who stepped up and took charge.

02:06:51.813 --> 02:06:53.646
You call him power-hungry?

02:06:54.355 --> 02:06:55.521
What power?

02:06:56.188 --> 02:06:58.771
If anyone was powerful,
it was the terrorists.

02:06:59.271 --> 02:07:01.771
And the press was their mouthpiece,

02:07:02.521 --> 02:07:04.855
and judiciary paralysed.

02:07:05.730 --> 02:07:09.521
This suicide by a Sikh warrior is not
an action of a coward.

02:07:10.480 --> 02:07:13.063
It was not fear that drove him to death.

02:07:13.521 --> 02:07:17.062
It was ingratitude and false allegations

02:07:17.063 --> 02:07:18.813
made by the CBI,

02:07:19.021 --> 02:07:20.396
and the human rights people...

02:07:21.230 --> 02:07:23.980
which forced him to take such a drastic step.

02:07:24.730 --> 02:07:27.480
The Indian state must learn to protect

02:07:28.105 --> 02:07:31.855
officers like SSP Sugga, or the day isn’t far...

02:07:32.355 --> 02:07:35.271
when Punjab will once again go back ten years.

02:07:35.480 --> 02:07:38.313
Don’t know his name, sir.
He wasn't in uniform.

02:07:40.855 --> 02:07:44.146
But yes... he had green eyes.

02:07:45.521 --> 02:07:46.771
Like emeralds.

02:07:47.146 --> 02:07:48.896
Thank you. Jai Hind!

02:07:54.563 --> 02:07:56.063
You know Kehar Singh?

02:07:57.771 --> 02:07:58.855
And Jaswant Singh?

02:08:04.396 --> 02:08:06.646
You'd bring him food at Kang
police station, right?

02:08:13.688 --> 02:08:14.605
Yes...

02:08:18.396 --> 02:08:21.146
Sugga sir put me on guard duty.

02:08:22.438 --> 02:08:23.146
But...

02:08:25.105 --> 02:08:26.396
only for a few days.

02:08:31.771 --> 02:08:32.646
Sir...

02:08:34.021 --> 02:08:37.521
I’m not lying.
I’m just an ordinary SPO.

02:08:38.605 --> 02:08:40.521
My job isn’t even permanent yet.

02:08:46.605 --> 02:08:48.021
Become a government witness.

02:08:48.355 --> 02:08:49.813
We’ll make you permanent.

02:09:01.771 --> 02:09:04.230
All five of these cops know that
you know everything.

02:09:06.646 --> 02:09:08.605
If they find out tomorrow
that you're here...

02:09:09.563 --> 02:09:10.521
... with us.

02:09:13.188 --> 02:09:14.313
What do you think?

02:09:16.813 --> 02:09:17.980
They’ll spare you?

02:09:26.355 --> 02:09:27.063
Kuljit...

02:09:28.563 --> 02:09:30.480
Where were you on the night
of 6th September?

02:09:34.688 --> 02:09:35.938
Kang police station.

02:09:37.646 --> 02:09:38.938
I was on guard duty.

02:09:39.105 --> 02:09:40.230
Who were you guarding?

02:09:42.563 --> 02:09:44.438
It was... some...

02:09:44.813 --> 02:09:45.771
Some Kehar Singh.

02:09:47.646 --> 02:09:50.105
They held him there for two days,
then released him.

02:09:50.896 --> 02:09:51.688
And?

02:09:53.771 --> 02:09:54.813
Who else was there?

02:09:56.396 --> 02:09:57.355
Kuljit...

02:09:58.521 --> 02:09:59.230
Kuljit...

02:10:00.313 --> 02:10:01.563
Who else was there?

02:10:02.230 --> 02:10:04.730
No one else. Just Kehar Singh.

02:10:08.230 --> 02:10:10.729
Kuljit, that night at Kang police station,

02:10:10.730 --> 02:10:13.480
was Jaswant Singh kept in Kehar Singh's
neighbouring cell or not?

02:10:18.021 --> 02:10:18.855
He wasn't.

02:10:19.646 --> 02:10:21.896
All the other cells were empty. You...

02:10:22.146 --> 02:10:23.730
You can check the register.

02:10:24.105 --> 02:10:25.855
There’s no entry by this name.

02:10:26.396 --> 02:10:27.563
There was no one else there?

02:10:30.771 --> 02:10:32.230
The CBI...

02:10:32.563 --> 02:10:36.188
has registered your written statement in court,
in which it is clearly written that...

02:10:36.605 --> 02:10:39.355
you saw Jaswant Singh at Kang
police station that night.

02:10:40.855 --> 02:10:42.730
No, not there. the question came
from here, look here.

02:10:43.188 --> 02:10:44.563
Did you see him or not?

02:10:45.396 --> 02:10:47.355
Did you see him or not?

02:10:48.021 --> 02:10:50.855
I...
- Did you see him or not?

02:10:51.605 --> 02:10:53.105
Yes or no? Did you see him or not?

02:10:53.855 --> 02:10:54.980
Sir they gave me money.

02:10:55.938 --> 02:10:57.563
To speak against the police.

02:10:58.271 --> 02:10:59.896
I don’t know any Jaswant Singh.

02:11:00.146 --> 02:11:00.980
He's lying!

02:11:01.396 --> 02:11:02.395
Please be quiet.
- He's lying!

02:11:02.396 --> 02:11:04.188
Quiet! Please sit down!

02:11:04.813 --> 02:11:06.355
Make him sit.

02:11:12.896 --> 02:11:13.896
Who gave you money?

02:11:18.438 --> 02:11:19.188
Kuljit...

02:11:19.730 --> 02:11:20.480
Don’t be afraid.

02:11:21.105 --> 02:11:22.230
Who gave you the money?

02:11:31.230 --> 02:11:32.563
Have you lost it?
What is this rubbish?

02:11:32.938 --> 02:11:35.313
Why're you lying? Who's putting
pressure on you?

02:11:35.771 --> 02:11:37.105
Who is pressuring you?
- Calm down.

02:11:37.230 --> 02:11:38.396
Sit down...
- Calm down.

02:11:38.521 --> 02:11:39.645
Calm down
- Why are you lying?

02:11:39.646 --> 02:11:41.146
Who has pressured you?
- Calm down

02:11:41.980 --> 02:11:42.980
Be silent...
- Why are you lying?

02:11:43.188 --> 02:11:43.937
Cool down Samudra.

02:11:43.938 --> 02:11:45.312
Maintain order in this court.

02:11:45.313 --> 02:11:47.979
Your honour, his wife is sitting there,
he keeps looking at her.

02:11:47.980 --> 02:11:50.479
Sit down.
- He's been pressured, your honour.

02:11:50.480 --> 02:11:52.395
I will not have any disorder in my court room.

02:11:52.396 --> 02:11:54.980
Why the hell are you lying?
- Samudra...

02:11:55.480 --> 02:11:56.688
You will not get away with this.

02:11:58.271 --> 02:11:59.521
Thie hearing is adjourned.

02:12:00.188 --> 02:12:01.688
It will resume after the recess.

02:12:11.146 --> 02:12:13.438
How did you let a witness make
such a fool out of you?

02:12:14.105 --> 02:12:15.521
And then you attacked him in court.

02:12:15.771 --> 02:12:16.980
Have you completely lost it?

02:12:20.563 --> 02:12:21.605
We've lost it, sir.

02:12:24.730 --> 02:12:26.146
Bitta was absolutely right.

02:12:27.813 --> 02:12:28.730
This is a war and...

02:12:31.605 --> 02:12:32.563
We've lost it.

02:12:33.021 --> 02:12:35.355
Samudra, once again you’re taking
all of this too personally.

02:12:37.521 --> 02:12:38.896
So I’ve made a decision.

02:12:39.855 --> 02:12:40.813
Take a break.

02:12:41.938 --> 02:12:43.355
Let someone else take over this case.

02:13:36.771 --> 02:13:37.771
Kuljit.

02:13:46.855 --> 02:13:47.646
Kuljit.

02:13:58.355 --> 02:13:59.355
Recognise me?

02:14:06.355 --> 02:14:08.521
I’ve come straight from the river.

02:14:10.896 --> 02:14:12.063
To meet you.

02:14:17.438 --> 02:14:18.938
I’m not alone there.

02:14:23.230 --> 02:14:24.646
There are many like me.

02:14:25.855 --> 02:14:26.605
Children,

02:14:27.896 --> 02:14:29.021
women,

02:14:29.855 --> 02:14:30.646
the old.

02:14:34.563 --> 02:14:35.855
They will come.

02:14:38.521 --> 02:14:40.313
One by one, they will all come.

02:14:58.021 --> 02:14:59.021
In the winter,

02:15:02.105 --> 02:15:07.438
when the water freezes at night, Kuljit...

02:15:09.230 --> 02:15:11.230
it gets really cold.

02:15:17.063 --> 02:15:18.438
On the outside...

02:15:25.605 --> 02:15:26.980
and on the inside.

02:15:28.771 --> 02:15:30.438
It’s an open wound.

02:15:31.271 --> 02:15:33.688
So the water rushes in.

02:15:38.605 --> 02:15:39.855
Look.

02:15:50.813 --> 02:15:52.438
Water rushes in, Kuljit.

02:16:43.438 --> 02:16:44.855
Why should I trust you this time?

02:16:46.605 --> 02:16:48.105
I got scared last time.

02:16:51.438 --> 02:16:52.020
Of what?

02:16:56.895 --> 02:16:57.605
The police.

02:16:59.895 --> 02:17:01.063
And this time?

02:17:03.938 --> 02:17:05.063
God.

02:17:10.438 --> 02:17:11.563
I don’t believe him.

02:17:13.105 --> 02:17:13.938
I believe him, sir.

02:17:14.313 --> 02:17:16.145
What guarantee is there that
this Kuljit Singh...

02:17:16.645 --> 02:17:18.105
... is telling the truth this time?

02:17:19.645 --> 02:17:21.645
He’s already turned hostile in court once.

02:17:22.813 --> 02:17:24.188
No guarantee, sir.

02:17:25.105 --> 02:17:27.063
But my gut tells me he’s telling the truth.

02:17:27.813 --> 02:17:30.730
Your gut has been wrong before, Samudra.

02:17:32.270 --> 02:17:34.645
In any case, why are we still discussing this?

02:17:35.688 --> 02:17:39.063
The court will never give you permission
to present Kuljit as a witness again.

02:17:40.895 --> 02:17:42.645
That’s why I’ve come to you three, sir.

02:17:43.145 --> 02:17:44.605
To request special permission.

02:17:48.313 --> 02:17:50.520
This is not only about Kuljit Singh sir.

02:17:54.563 --> 02:17:58.520
It’s about probably the biggest genocide
our country has seen post independence.

02:18:00.395 --> 02:18:02.230
Look at the history of Punjab, sir.

02:18:04.063 --> 02:18:07.230
Be it the river waters dispute or
the Anandpur Sahib resolution.

02:18:07.605 --> 02:18:09.312
or the ’84 riots,

02:18:09.313 --> 02:18:11.144
insurgency, Black Thunder...

02:18:11.145 --> 02:18:14.355
from President’s Rule to the CM’s
assassination, and now...

02:18:17.688 --> 02:18:18.563
Jaswant Singh!

02:18:21.938 --> 02:18:23.605
Why is Punjab suffering?

02:18:24.605 --> 02:18:26.688
This is a vicious circle of violence

02:18:27.645 --> 02:18:31.230
which the powerful use for their own agendas,
and it will never stop. It will go on and on

02:18:31.438 --> 02:18:34.813
until we don’t step in and set an example.

02:18:37.020 --> 02:18:37.520
Or...

02:18:39.020 --> 02:18:40.563
we can just turn a blind eye

02:18:42.188 --> 02:18:43.854
and be on the wrong side of history forever.

02:18:43.855 --> 02:18:47.145
And we’ll never be able to forgive
ourselves for this.

02:18:50.855 --> 02:18:52.105
We are answerable here, sir.

02:18:54.938 --> 02:18:58.312
We are answerable to our conscience.
We are answerable to those families...

02:18:58.313 --> 02:19:01.270
whose loved ones were marked ‘unclaimed’
and cremated by these people.

02:19:02.355 --> 02:19:04.813
We are answerable to
Jaswant Singh’s family,

02:19:06.480 --> 02:19:08.688
and yes, we are answerable
to Jaswant Singh.

02:19:17.855 --> 02:19:21.688
Jaswant Singh!
- Long live!

02:19:21.938 --> 02:19:24.020
Brothers of the Unclaimed!
- Long live!

02:19:24.145 --> 02:19:28.520
Jaswant Singh!
- Jaswant Singh!

02:19:29.730 --> 02:19:39.354
Bring back Jaswant Singh!
- Bring him back!

02:19:39.355 --> 02:19:43.688
Jaswant Singh!
Brothers of the unclaimed!

02:19:43.813 --> 02:19:50.145
Bring back Jaswant Singh!
- Bring him back!

02:19:50.146 --> 02:19:54.146
Jaswant Singh!
Brothers of the unclaimed!

02:20:09.563 --> 02:20:10.230
Kuljit.

02:20:11.021 --> 02:20:12.021
This is your last chance.

02:20:12.813 --> 02:20:16.480
If you lie or change your statement again,

02:20:16.855 --> 02:20:20.396
You will be charged with contempt of court.

02:20:20.896 --> 02:20:22.188
Do you understand?

02:20:26.021 --> 02:20:27.063
Kuljit...

02:20:27.855 --> 02:20:29.313
This is your last chance.

02:20:30.396 --> 02:20:31.730
Tell them the truth.

02:20:42.938 --> 02:20:44.730
On the night of 4th September,

02:20:45.563 --> 02:20:48.480
Bitta sir called the SSP to his house.

02:20:50.688 --> 02:20:52.146
DSP Jagpal was with him.

02:20:54.688 --> 02:20:56.563
We were there for about an hour.

02:20:58.105 --> 02:20:59.146
Then the next morning

02:21:00.188 --> 02:21:03.771
SSP sir told me to go with the DSP to Tarn Taran.

02:21:04.771 --> 02:21:05.646
That night...

02:21:06.480 --> 02:21:07.771
on 5th September,

02:21:08.813 --> 02:21:12.063
the DSP held an urgent meeting at
Tarn Taran police station,

02:21:13.521 --> 02:21:15.188
in which inspector Ajay Kumar,

02:21:15.980 --> 02:21:17.855
Sub-Inspector Harinder Singh,

02:21:18.146 --> 02:21:19.188
Tejinder Singh,

02:21:19.813 --> 02:21:21.605
and inspector Shivender were there.

02:21:22.105 --> 02:21:23.688
The next morning

02:21:24.021 --> 02:21:25.146
On 6th September...

02:21:25.771 --> 02:21:28.855
we started watching
Jaswant Singh’s house.

02:21:30.605 --> 02:21:33.021
After some time, Jaswant Singh came outside

02:21:33.771 --> 02:21:35.021
and started washing his car.

02:21:36.105 --> 02:21:37.855
Everyone thought the time was right.

02:21:38.605 --> 02:21:39.938
Let's go.

02:21:48.855 --> 02:21:49.521
Jaswant Singh.

02:21:50.230 --> 02:21:51.688
The SSP wants to see you.

02:21:53.521 --> 02:21:54.355
He wants to talk to you.
- Let's go.

02:21:54.563 --> 02:21:56.688
What does he want to talk about?
- Come on.

02:21:57.271 --> 02:21:59.605
Sanjiv!
- Come on, get in!

02:22:00.188 --> 02:22:02.605
Sanjiv!
- Don't fret, come on.

02:22:04.605 --> 02:22:06.188
Sanjiv!
- Get lost!

02:22:06.813 --> 02:22:08.021
Hurry up drive, drive!

02:22:08.313 --> 02:22:10.438
Hey! Stop the car!

02:22:11.271 --> 02:22:14.313
Then we took Jaswant Singh
straight to Kang police station.

02:22:15.646 --> 02:22:17.605
In the evening, SSP Sugga came as well.

02:22:18.980 --> 02:22:22.021
He tried hard to convince Jaswant Singh.

02:22:22.605 --> 02:22:23.813
There’s still time.

02:22:25.646 --> 02:22:26.563
Start behaving.

02:22:29.438 --> 02:22:30.855
Stop chasing the police.

02:22:36.021 --> 02:22:37.521
Or I’ll bury you alive right here.

02:22:38.688 --> 02:22:40.730
With your list of 25,000 corpses.

02:22:42.271 --> 02:22:44.105
This is a fight for human rights.

02:22:45.771 --> 02:22:47.188
For the whole community.

02:22:50.063 --> 02:22:52.188
You people started this genocide.

02:22:54.438 --> 02:22:55.896
I won't stop.

02:22:57.771 --> 02:22:58.855
We’ll do it for you.

02:23:01.896 --> 02:23:03.021
We know how.

02:23:07.605 --> 02:23:09.063
The world will keep searching.

02:23:10.646 --> 02:23:12.021
Your children will roam...

02:23:12.938 --> 02:23:13.688
... as orphans.

02:23:15.146 --> 02:23:16.646
They’re children of faith.

02:23:19.105 --> 02:23:20.313
They’ll never be orphans.

02:23:21.938 --> 02:23:23.563
And if I die a martyr,

02:23:25.688 --> 02:23:27.813
then one day you’ll have
to commit suicide.

02:23:29.188 --> 02:23:29.938
Remember that.

02:23:36.146 --> 02:23:38.188
I’ll have to commit suicide?

02:23:41.021 --> 02:23:41.771
Me?

02:23:42.355 --> 02:23:43.896
Son of a Bitch!

02:23:44.480 --> 02:23:50.771
I'll have to kill myself?

02:23:51.105 --> 02:23:53.021
Bastard!
I'm going to kill myself?

02:23:53.813 --> 02:23:55.313
I'm going to commit suicide?

02:23:55.480 --> 02:23:56.646
Sir stop... He'll die.

02:24:02.271 --> 02:24:02.980
Let's go.

02:24:07.813 --> 02:24:10.896
Listen! You keep an eye on him, understand?

02:24:11.771 --> 02:24:12.646
Son of a bitch!

02:24:12.980 --> 02:24:13.771
Let's go!
- Yes sir.

02:24:14.646 --> 02:24:15.188
Back it up!

02:24:27.146 --> 02:24:30.188
Jaswant Singh was kept there
for the next three days.

02:24:37.855 --> 02:24:41.188
The police was under constant pressure
to find him.

02:24:41.771 --> 02:24:45.646
So we moved him to an
old house near Jhabal.

02:24:46.063 --> 02:24:47.105
Tejinder.

02:24:47.813 --> 02:24:48.563
Open it.

02:24:53.271 --> 02:24:55.355
He was kept there for several weeks.

02:25:05.688 --> 02:25:06.938
Found out yet?

02:25:09.313 --> 02:25:10.688
Whose farm is it?

02:25:17.063 --> 02:25:20.063
If you wish

02:25:21.688 --> 02:25:23.645
to play the game of love

02:25:23.646 --> 02:25:24.271
I warned you.

02:25:25.355 --> 02:25:26.355
Don’t get involved.

02:25:29.438 --> 02:25:34.230
If you wish to play the game of love

02:25:36.605 --> 02:25:47.271
Come my way with your head
in the palm of your hand

02:25:48.896 --> 02:25:57.313
If you set foot on this path

02:26:03.980 --> 02:26:10.646
If you set foot on this path

02:26:13.855 --> 02:26:20.605
Don't hesitate to give your head.

02:26:42.605 --> 02:26:44.146
Son of a bitch!

02:26:49.230 --> 02:26:49.980
Give me that.

02:26:51.355 --> 02:26:53.605
Here's my account!

02:27:05.521 --> 02:27:07.354
I'll put a bullet in you right now!

02:27:07.355 --> 02:27:08.438
Sir, no! No!

02:27:08.730 --> 02:27:10.896
Let go, I'll kill this bastard today!

02:27:11.438 --> 02:27:13.855
Here's my account for 25,000 bodies!

02:27:15.063 --> 02:27:18.313
I'll kill him...
- Let's go out, come on.

02:27:19.188 --> 02:27:27.145
Don't hesitate to give your head.

02:27:27.146 --> 02:27:32.063
Don't hesitate

02:27:32.646 --> 02:27:39.563
to give your head.

02:27:42.480 --> 02:27:44.021
Then on the day before Diwali,

02:27:45.646 --> 02:27:50.355
the SSP instructed me to bring
Jaswant Singh to his farmhouse.

02:27:55.105 --> 02:27:56.105
And...

02:27:57.063 --> 02:27:58.938
Bitta sir was already there.

02:28:04.021 --> 02:28:04.646
Hey!

02:28:05.563 --> 02:28:08.813
What the hell are you saying?
- Please be quiet!

02:28:09.521 --> 02:28:11.938
Please be quiet! Please sit.
- He's lying!

02:28:12.313 --> 02:28:13.646
Order order.

02:28:14.730 --> 02:28:16.271
He's a liar.

02:28:16.438 --> 02:28:18.521
Please be quiet!
- Traitor!

02:28:21.188 --> 02:28:22.063
What happened then?

02:28:26.105 --> 02:28:26.688
Then...

02:28:28.480 --> 02:28:31.521
A little later, Bitta sir stormed out in anger,

02:28:33.271 --> 02:28:37.063
got into his car and left without a word.

02:28:41.980 --> 02:28:43.438
What happened inside...

02:28:44.521 --> 02:28:47.521
was known only to the SSP

02:28:48.021 --> 02:28:49.438
and to Bitta sir.

02:28:51.313 --> 02:28:52.771
The rest of us were outside.

02:28:55.438 --> 02:28:58.688
Then we took Jaswant Singh straight
to Jhabal police station.

02:28:59.855 --> 02:29:00.855
Come on!

02:29:01.313 --> 02:29:02.855
Get him out.
- Come on.

02:29:04.896 --> 02:29:06.021
Let's go.

02:29:07.063 --> 02:29:07.980
Let's go.

02:29:08.396 --> 02:29:08.980
Attaboy!

02:29:15.021 --> 02:29:16.688
No point talking to him.

02:29:31.188 --> 02:29:33.605
Why don’t you just do
what Bitta sir says?

02:29:37.896 --> 02:29:40.063
What will all this accomplish?

02:29:43.771 --> 02:29:45.271
Even if you die...

02:29:48.021 --> 02:29:49.230
what will change?

02:29:59.063 --> 02:30:01.063
You still have time.

02:30:04.813 --> 02:30:05.730
It's up to you now.

02:30:08.896 --> 02:30:09.938
Kuljit.

02:30:17.938 --> 02:30:20.646
When the sun was setting for the first time,

02:30:24.938 --> 02:30:28.105
and darkness was engulfing every...

02:30:34.063 --> 02:30:35.188
... engulfing everything.

02:30:36.688 --> 02:30:38.355
The world thought...

02:30:40.688 --> 02:30:43.105
that the darkness would last forever.

02:30:47.230 --> 02:30:49.105
People were frightened.

02:30:52.938 --> 02:30:55.355
They started losing all hope of light.

02:30:59.855 --> 02:31:01.355
That’s when, far away

02:31:04.896 --> 02:31:07.230
in some little hut,

02:31:10.771 --> 02:31:12.646
a lamp raised its head

02:31:14.063 --> 02:31:14.771
and said,

02:31:18.146 --> 02:31:20.563
“I challenge the darkness”.

02:31:25.480 --> 02:31:30.605
However deep the darkness may be,

02:31:34.605 --> 02:31:36.230
I will light up...

02:31:38.855 --> 02:31:40.980
... my surroundings.

02:31:43.771 --> 02:31:45.730
And watching the strength of this lamp,

02:31:50.146 --> 02:31:53.396
other lamps arose in other huts.

02:31:57.730 --> 02:32:00.105
And the world was amazed...

02:32:03.480 --> 02:32:06.563
that these little lamps defeated the
darkness, Kuljit.

02:32:08.521 --> 02:32:09.813
You or I...

02:32:13.896 --> 02:32:16.521
can’t defeat the darkness alone.

02:32:22.605 --> 02:32:24.480
But we can be a lamp,

02:32:26.938 --> 02:32:30.688
and defeat the darkness around us, Kuljit.

02:32:37.938 --> 02:32:39.730
Are you listening, Kuljit?

02:33:31.313 --> 02:33:34.396
Twenty five thousand... and one.

02:33:44.396 --> 02:33:45.230
Go on.

02:33:46.188 --> 02:33:47.438
Get some hot water.

02:33:50.230 --> 02:33:51.105
Move it!

02:34:42.563 --> 02:34:43.730
Dump him in the river.

02:34:44.855 --> 02:34:46.938
The fish in Harike are starving.

02:35:23.980 --> 02:35:26.313
I can’t ignore what I’ve seen, Pammi.

02:35:29.271 --> 02:35:31.313
Someone has to come forward for them.

02:35:39.063 --> 02:35:40.146
You asked me, didn’t you…

02:35:41.063 --> 02:35:42.813
Whoever comes forward,
what about their family?

02:35:50.396 --> 02:35:52.646
This decision is for my family.

02:36:00.896 --> 02:36:03.521
Then we... we took him...

02:36:07.855 --> 02:36:09.063
... to Harike.

02:36:23.730 --> 02:36:26.355
Pull him out!
- Come on.

02:36:41.063 --> 02:36:42.188
Here, take this.
