Jolly LLB Page #9
l opened my eyes and saw
a luxury car on the footpath.
My relatives were writhing in pain.
l couldn't figure
what had happened.
A boy got out of the car.
He was shaken.
When l woke up again...
l found myself in the hospital.
lnspector Rathi had come to see me.
Do you remember the number
of the truck?
No, sir. lt was a car.
You are dreaming of a car.
The accident was caused by a truck.
No, sir.
lt was a car.
Don't you understand?
Get up and l will explain.
Come.
He took me to the morgue were
the bodies of my relatives lay.
l told him that l
was telling the truth.
But he wouldn't listen...
Do you think l'm fool.
and he threatened to kill me.
l will kill you.
No, sir... please let me go.
How can l let you go?
l will get paid to kill you.
But l'll get nothing
if l let you go.
l have money with me.
l gave my savings of 30,000...
and the jewelry l had
brought for my sister to him.
A cop helped me to a train for
Gorakhpur and I went to my hometown.
Sir, I request you to call
upon the accused, Rahul Dewan...
so Sadakanth Mishra
can identify him.
l object your honor.
l'd like to cross-examine
the witness first.
Overruled!
You will get your chance.
Sit down.
Rahul Dewan...
please step forward.
Stand there.
Sadakanth Mishra,
take a good look at him.
ls he the same boy who
was driving the car that night?
Yes, sir.
He is the same boy who
was driving the car that night.
Amazing!
With all that happened today...
l didn't even realize
that its time for lunch.
Sir...
reschedule the hearing...
because l have an important matter
in the Supreme court...
if you don't mind.
You have the option of
sending a junior counsel.
But the court will
issue it's verdict today.
Sir, did everything
go well in court today?
Where is he?
Sir, he is locked up inside.
Get him out.
Who is he?
Sir, Ramakanth Shukla
from Gorakhpur.
Not Ramakanth Shukla, you idiot.
Sadakanth Mishra,
the guy who limps.
- Hey...
- Why are you beating me up?
Couldn't you tell me who you are?
You didn't let me talk.
Take him away.
Mr. Rajpal, sir...
ls the name correct?
Yes, sir.
He is from Gorakhpur?
Yes, sir.
ls he telling the truth?
Yes, sir.
You let him go for 30,000 rupees!
lt was a mistake, sir.
Sir, please...
The 30,000 will make
life hell in court!
- l thought you...
- What?
- You had worked out a plan.
- Plan?
- Sir, it was a mistake.
- l don't want to see you again.
Before the court can
issue it's verdict...
Mr. Rajpal,
please conclude the argument.
Thank you, your honor.
First of all, I'd like to thank
lt was only after
the PlL was filed that...
new facts, new evidence,
new eye witnesses emerged.
But none of these facts
can hold my client guilty.
But your honor...
l have to admit...
l am a little worried.
l'm worried...
because people in this
court room seem to be in a hurry.
lt seems that the people
Rahul Dewan is
responsible for the accident.
Everyone seems to be in a hurry
to send Rahul Dewan to prison.
But before we do that,
let us examine the facts.
The investigation report
still doesn't tell us...
what really happened that night.
There is some confusion,
your honor.
truck caused the accident...
while the prosecution and
people say it was a Land Cruiser.
six people were killed...
while the prosecution and
people say that five were killed.
Now that brings a
dead man back to life.
And we have a dead man
now walking in this court...
who becomes the only eye
witness in this case.
ls this some kind of a joke?
But prima facie one thing is clear
that the police were incompetent.
And as a part of the judicial system
it is my recommendation that...
taken against Sub lnspector Rathi.
lt is people like him that
give the department a bad name.
lt is due to people like him that the
public rubbishes the investigation.
You've made a joke out of it.
Set an example of him,
once and for all...
for the entire police department.
Your honor...
my client shouldn't be
punished for Rathi's failure.
Which brings me to
a very important question.
Your honor, is this court willing
to send my client to prison...
on the basis of a
botched up investigation?
And make no mistake,
this is a botched up investigation.
With this laughable
and hilarious evidence.
Because if this happens...
it will be the darkest
hour in the history...
of the judicial system
of this country.
As for the five people that died...
my deepest sympathies.
But if you sleep on the footpath...
That's the harsh reality.
The rest, your honor...
l leave it to your wisdom
and your fine sense ofjudgment.
Thank you.
Mr. Tyagi, your submission.
For the first time,
l agree with Mr. Rajpal.
lf you sleep on the footpath,
lt is true.
l want to ask Mr. Rajpal...
ln fact, l want to ask everyone
present in this court room...
l want to ask you, your honor...
sleep on the footpath...
who are they...
where do they come from?
They don't have a roof on their
head, they have no work, no money.
Then why do they come
to our beautiful city?
To tarnish its beauty?
But these malnourished,
poor people have a right.
And that's the right to justice.
Which neither Mr. Rajpal, nor you
nor this court can take away.
Because it is our constitution
that gives them this right.
The constitution of India.
But when it comes
to theirjustice...
shut on their face.
They are made to appear in court,
hearing after hearing...
they are given assurances,
promises...
but justice?
They don't get justice.
High on both alcohol and wealth...
driving at a speed
of 120 kilometers...
is young and innocent Rahul Dewan.
Young and innocent...
who killed five people.
And Mr. Rajpal says, is it a joke?
No, sir,
let me tell you what is a joke!
ln the last eight months...
Mr. Rajpal has changed
the Land Cruiser to a truck...
if this case drags for six more months,
he will make sure it's a train.
And if it the case continues
for a year, l am sure...
Mr. Rajpal will convince
everyone that...
this man is Shah Rukh Khan
and not Sadakanth Mishra.
And for lack of evidence,
you will have to accept it.
That is a joke, your honor.
This is a joke.
Footpath is not meant for sleeping,
isn't that what you said?
But Mr. Rajpal, a footpath
isn't meant to be driven on either.
Trying to teach me law!
l've often heard since my childhood
of the wide reach of the law.
And l've often heard
this line in movies...
'The arms of the law are long.'
That is rubbish!
And if the arms of the law are long,
