into factions...

I consider against mY dutY

The action Joint

Commissioner Dev took, sir...

assessing the situation on the spot

is not against the law

How is she?

- Out of danger...

but still in a state of shock

She is suffering from severe trauma

AnY relatives?

- No one survived

I can take her to

a relief camp or...

I am with her

Look, he is mY husband

Mr Dev Pratap Singh

If You people need help,

anY time, You can contact me

Thanks... thanks a lot

But when help was badlY needed,

You didn't do anYthing

You allowed all that maYhem

to happen before Your eYes...

and now this pretence of help!

What help can You offer with hands

that are covered in our blood?

The cause of this riot,

the blast at the temple...

the hands that planted the bomb...

whose blood are theY tainted with?

This is not the time to argue

but to support each other

The poor boY is verY tense

This is the boY I had mentioned

the other daY. Farhaan

I want to...

- SaY something?

Yes.

- Go ahead

You helped us

to get here... thanks

Shall we...?

- Go on, I have to be here awhile

Mother...?

Father...?

The bomb blast was a terrorist strike

It killed so manY innocent

men, women and children

Wounded them.

For what fault of theirs?

Don't theY deserve justice?

We have to adopt extra-ordinarY

measures to combat such situations

To let the maYhem spread is the onlY

extra-ordinarY waY, I guess

Doctor! MY child!

Look what's happened to him

We are responsible.

We are guiltY

We allowed thousands

of innocents to be massacred

You are too emotional, Dev

So much sentimentalitY

is not good

Yes people have died, manY people

have died in this riot...

but that is just collateral damage

Collateral damage

Who are You and I...

to decide who is to die?

Collateral damage!

What do You want, Dev?

People who have been affected

bY these riots should get justice...

and the rioters be punished...

no matter what religion

theY belong to. This is what I want

I want to promise them that

theY will get justice

Can I make this promise, Tej?

Yes, Dev...

You can promise them

Go to sleep

No... no

This devastation

should not have happened, AaliYa

NobodY has the right

to strew corpses like this!

Who knows who is doing all this?

There is a demon out there somewhere

You want to live in this countrY,

in this citY...

You and Your people, don't You?

Where else can we go Mangal Rao?

Then listen to the conditions

One, no man or woman

from Your communitY...

will report anYthing

about the riots to the cops

TheY will not file an FIR

under anY circumstances

Two, none of Your people...

will point a finger...

at anY Hindu seen

during the riots...

theY will not identifY them,

not mention names...

not to the Police, not to anY

inquirY Commission, etc

You will staY absolutelY silent

Long Live Islam!

Brethren...

these riots are a challenge from

this government to our communitY

And we accept the challenge

This government! First theY spark

the flames that burn living humans...

then make a farce of help

to douse the flames...

a show of saving lives

This is the treatment the government

doles out to us

This two-faced government

has been exposed

Nothing theY saY can be believed...

whether it is monetarY relief

or promise of justice

We won't even get a scrap of help

from this government...

Justice is a far off dream

And we don't want justice

given to us in charitY

Because justice is our right!

And we won't be given it.

We will onlY be given humiliation

Some Commission will be appointed,

the enquirY will drag on for Years...

and in the end the report will be

dumped in the trash bin

We don't want this farce of justice,

this hollow sYmpathY. Enough!

For God's sake, enough!

MY request to You, in fact,

consider it our collective decision...

that none of us will report

to the Police

NobodY will file a report...

or testifY against anY Hindu rioter

before the Police or anY Commission

Nothing will be said against

anY Hindu rioter...

because we don't want

to be insulted

We have tolerated enough!

And we know how to deal

with this kind of governance

We will train our brave Youth and

avenge the martYrdom of each victim

We will not beg for justice

before this government or the police

So tell me... is that agreed?

Agreed

WhY are You afraid?

Speak up loud! Agreed?

Agreed

Thanks. So then it is decided,

nobodY will lodge a complaint

One last thing. If anYbodY goes

against this decision...

he will be considered a traitor

AnY questions?

Latifbhai...

Yes, You have something to saY?

Yes

What could be worse than

what happened to us?

So whY should we not tell the Police?

Meaning, whY should we not

lodge a complaint?

The decision that we have all

taken here, is absolutelY correct

Rest assured

What's going on inside?

Latifbhai is here,

he is talking inside

To AaliYa?

Stop Farhaan, stop!

With the death of Your parents

in these riots...

You have become verY alone...

and a lone, Young girl needs

protection at everY step...

You understand what I mean?

Miss AaliYa, I give You a piece

of sincere advice...

and that is, don't even dream

of defYing our decision

Good bYe

I promise You...

that You will get justice

Please come forward

without anY fear...

and lodge Your complaint

Whatever You been though...

whatever violence You suffered...

please come forward and record it

So that we can immediatelY

start legal proceedings

I can understand You are afraid

MaYbe You have been threatened...

but I appeal to You

not to fear

Trust the Law

The government and the police

are determined to...

severelY punish the rioters

No matter what religion

or communitY theY belong to

Without Your help...

we will neither be able to identifY

nor arrest the rioters

We won't be able to do anYthing

The people who burnt Your homes...

who killed Your children...

who raped Your daughters...

will walk free.

Is that acceptable to You?

I appeal to You once more.

Strengthen our hands...

come out and lodge complaints

You will be given full protection.

I take personal responsibilitY

Trust me. There will be no delaY

in getting justice

Please...

Your name?

- AaliYa

Tell us what happened

You ask us to keep faith in You,

in the law...

when the culprits stand here

bY Your side

ObviouslY You refer to

someone in particular

Are theY present here?

- Yes

Point them out

Go ahead, don't be afraid

What did these two do?

During the riot,

me and mY friend Shabnam...

were trYing to reach Mehtab Manzil

We asked them which is

a safe waY to go...

and theY deliberatelY

sent us into a lane...

where riots were on.

The rioters followed us

Shabnam, her mother...

her pregnant sister

and her son were killed

I fainted. Farhaan saved me

Bhonsle, Yadav... the two of You

are suspended from this moment

Written orders will follow. Ranawat,

prepare a chargesheet against them

AnYthing else?

I saw with mY own eYes,
