of a constable.

What for?

- He wasn't able to stand.

He was yelling for water.

The constable helped him out.

He gave him water

and lead him to the lock-up.

ln another five minutes

he died, right?... -Yes

Defense Counsel, do you want to

question the witness?

No, your honour.

l don't have any questions.

My next witness is Baldev Singh.

Were you and Tiwari

in the same lock-up? - Yes.

So, he died in front ofyou? In

what state was he before he died?

What did he say?

ARer the mo constables leR

him, he rolled about in pain.

His eyes were shut.

But, he was screaming...

''l don't know anything.

Please don't hit me''

And then he gave a loud cy,

''He killed me''

And there he was... dead.

Defense Counsel, would you like to

question the witness?

No, your honour.

My next witness is

Dr. Karamchandani.

Did you perForm the post mortem

on Tiwari's dead body?-Yes..

lt's is clear that his death occurred

due to fracture in cervical bone.

lsn't it possible that he must've

fallen in the lock-up...

..and broke his bone?

- No. Had he fallen that bad...

...there would've been an injuy to

his head. l didn't find anything.

And it is vey clear that his death

wasn't accidental, but he was killed.

Defense Counsel, any questions?

l won't take much ofyour time.

Just a couple of simple questions.

ls it established that

Ramniklal Tiwari...

...died due to a cervical fracture?

- Yes. No doubt about it.

Agreed. ARer all you are a doctor.

One more question, doctor.

lnspector Shinde had stated

that...

...aRer Inspector Vijay went

to see the commissioner...

...a constable took Tiwari

out ofthe interrogation room...

...and gave him water since he

was screaming for water.

Now l want to know doctor, that,

if a person's cervical bone...

...is ruptured, like Tiwari's,

would he be able to drink water?

lt looked like a compound

fracture.

l would say, it's impossible that

water could enter his gullet.

ln fact it's impossible to move.

Doctor, aRer Inspector Vijay

went out, Tiwari did drink water.

lt implies that his bone never

cracked in front of Inspector Vijay...

...or in the interrogation room.

Am l right?

-Yes. Absolutely.

ARer this, do l have to say that

Inspector Vijay is innocent?

And that, all allegations against

him for the murder of ...

...Ramniklal Tiwari is absurd, is

baseless and untrue?

The court terms Vijay as innocent.

And releases him with all honour.

Sir, l was arranging files

in the cupboard.

l found this sealed letter.

- A sealed Letter?

Yes. l don't know how it got there.

Since it doesn't bear your name.

Then whose letter it is?

- Sheetal Sahney's.

''Sheetal, l'm writing this letter

out of sheer helplessness.''

''The days when we were

seeing each other, we were...

... ignorant about the fact that

Ravi loved you whole heartedly.''

''Believe me,

had l any inkling ofthis...

...l would've considered it a sin

to cary on with you.''

''l can forsake my love. But l

can't leave my friend in agony.''

''Would you do me a favour?

Mary Ravi. Vijay''

''Those days of our dreams,

those days of our books...''

''those nights of questioning,

those days of answers''

''We have spent many years

here together...''

''it's here that we played together,

and grew up''

''Our childhood was

so vey romantic...''

''may our friendship

always live on''

''Even ifthe world

turns an enemy...''

''may our friendship

always live on''

Please forgive me!

l have come to fulfil

your condition.

l'll spend this night here.

My god!

Don't wory. l won't consume

this poison before dawn.

No, Sheetal. Forgive me.

l misunderstood Vijay. And you too.

l doubted his friendship.

l misunderstood both ofyou.

Yes, Sheetal. Forgive me.

Take me to my friend.

Where is my friend?

Ravi wants to meet you, Vijay.

Me?

Look Sheetal, l don't understand

Ravi's behaviour in the court.

l never got to meet you aRer that.

And l couldn't even thank him...

We can talk later. As of now,

the letter you had written for me...

...it never reached me,

but today it did find Ravi.

He is vey ashamed.

He wants to talk to you.

Where is he?

- With me. Speak to him.

When your heart holds no grudges,

then why be ashamed?

Speak to him.

How are you, my friend?

l am a bad man, Vijay.

- Come on!

Don't be silly. It happens.

Perhaps l would've done the same...

No, Vijay. You would never do it.

Listen to me. l am coming.

l'll be right there.

You are coming with us.

What do you want? - Daaga

will hold court on you today.

Yes, Mr Ravi Kapoor, the great

criminal lawyer. How are you?

Come to the point, Daaga.

- Oh really?

You are well aware of how

Inspector Vijay is harmful to us.

Even then you saved him

to see this girl happy?

You didn't even think

of my wrath, did you?

You have committed a great blunder.

He must pay for this, right Sylvia?

A bruise? So early? You still have

to sustain some clobbering.

l agree, you want to take

revenge on me. But why Sheetal?

Let her go.

Let her go?

No, Mr Ravi. How will l let her

go?

She'll go to the police station

right away.

And why must she?

Let the poor thing come here.

Here l am, Daaga.

Bravo!

Tell all you men not to move.

lf anyone dares to move

even a finger, then...

...before something happens to

me, l'll shoot you dead.

Take him away. Tie him up!

l'll see you, Daaga!

- That's future tense.

l am seeing both ofyou now.

l want to ask you something, Vijay.

Who among us is your informer?

l need to know the traitor.-Let

me free, and l'll tell you all.

Really? So you won't reveal it,

eh?

Don't be silly, Mr Vijay.

Tell me the informer's name.

You think l'll tell you, do you?

- And why not?

What doesn't a man do

to escape from pain?

Values and principles does matter.

But the human body is vey weak.

The skin, the flesh

and the bones can endure pain...

...but their threshold can be

broken.

Who was it?

Actually, this is a worthless

whip.

But when it strikes,

it leaves a blue mark behind.

And when it strikes again,

it peels ofthe skin.

Tell me, who was it?

Tell me, who gave you

all the information?

Mr Ravi, why don't you

make him see reason?

You haven't understood us. l won't

ask any questions just to save myself.

Nor Vijay will answer such

stupid questions to save his life.

Oh really?

Fine. Ifyou are obstinate,

then l am too.

Who was it?

Who was it?

Who was it?

- Was? He still is.

But, l won't tell you.

Stop! Please!

Vijay, you can endure the lashes.

But, you can't stand the lashes...

...which scathes your

Iover's tender skin.

Daaga, l'll...

- l want the informer's name.

l will never tell you that.

Come what may, l won't.

All right, then.

Anything can happen.

Sylvia? You?

- Don't move, Daaga.

Have you gone mad?

- Your luck is bad.

l have called Tony.

The police is on the way.

Drop the whip.

Untie Sheetal first.

Tell your men not to move.

Ifthey did, l'll shoot you.

Sylvia, keep a watch on
