What truth are we trying

to arrive at here in court?

How did constable bhadoria

and iqbal die.

In this long yarn that you've spun

does the truth about

who murdered them get revealed?

Since you weren't there at the

scene of the crime.

But then..

What's revealed is..

No more buts.

If you want to narrate more fiction,

the judge is free.

He loves filmy stories.

I'm absolutely not interested.

Just give me a straight answer.

- Yes or no?

- No.

Very good, well done.

Fahim butt, in August 2010.

Kashmir police suspended

you for six months

for the kupwara incident. Why?

Your honour, how is this

question related to our case?

If there's no relation,

I'll stop practicing law.

I told you

- I won't beat around the bush. - I know!

- I won't beat around the bush. - I know!

You'll be direct, I know.

And straight!

May I?

Yes, or you'll protest again.

Yes, so why were you suspended?

I was accused of a custodial death.

You mean you killed someone?

No, I arrested him on suspicion.

We were taking him to the

police station, for questioning.

He was scared. He jumped

out of the police van

and a truck crushed him to death.

So tell me, fahim butt

if fear can make a man jump

out of a speeding van

isn't it possible that

the same fear can provoke

a criminal to snatch a gun

and try to escape?

Your honour,

he's leading the witness.

Objection overruled.

Please sit down.

Yes, it's possible.

Then say it out loud, buddy.

We all know it's happened to you.

So you would know that this

could happen to anyone. Right?

- Yes.

- Very good.

Just one last question.

You just said.

You just said

you were suspended for

a few months.

What were the charges against you?

I was accused of sharing confidential

information with the enemy.

But that's a lie, your honour.

Your honour, I was put behind bars

because I complained

about this matter to the CBI.

You're saying that.

Your statement won't

prove your innocence.

Your honour,

my learned friend forgets

that the accused is innocent,

until proven guilty.

That is the point.

That's the bloody point!

And, your honour,

on the basis of this logic.

Inspector suryaveer Singh

and his team are innocent.

But let's read this

newspaper for a minute.

Switch to any TV channel.

The media, society and the country

have already declared.

Suryaveer Singh guilty.

His reputation,

his career, his future is finished!

And it's the irony of your court

that a man charged with treason

is accusing a man

who has sworn to

protect his motherland.

Your honour, many years ago

there was a bomb blast

outside allahabad high court

where nine innocent

lives were lost.

Amongst the deceased were

my elder brother, sister-in-law

and my seven year old nephew.

My beloved father,

jugal kishore mathur

was injured during the

same terrorist attack.

Yet he's here.

In the middle of the night,

he's come here to see

which side you're on.

- And, your honour, my question is that.

- And, your honour, my question is that.

Is this court so weak that it's

unable to decide whether the country

needs brave officers

like suryaveer Singh

or murderers like iqbal qadri?

And, your honour, I would like

to close by saying

that we may choose

to be ignorant

live in our own bubble

but the truth is, your honour,

that we're in a state of war.

And a learned man once rightly said

everything is fair in love and war!

And now, justice is in your hands.

Thank you.

So, Mr. jolly, your turn.

- I would like to question Mr. Singh first.

- I would like to question Mr. Singh first.

Mr. Singh,

please step into the witness box.

Mr. Singh, will you

please tell the court

who will win the

next cricket world cup?

What kind of a question is that?

Fine, I'll ask something else.

Mr. Singh,

can you please tell the court

if aam aadmi party will win

in the next elections?

Are you crazy?

Have you lost your mind?

Do you want to be shot again?

I'm a peace-loving man, Mr. Singh

but when in law college

a very tall guy provoked me.

I punched him right here

and he was out cold for 22 days!

If you don't believe me,

you can ask mathur.

Take it easy, jolly.

Calm down. This is a court!

Ask questions but don't

create a scene here.

He's calling me crazy

and being rude.

Mr. Singh, why are you being rude?

Let it go.

Calm down. Continue please.

Let's try that again, sir.

Can you tell us when

salman Khan will get married?

What are you asking him?

He's a police officer

not an astrologer.

If he's not an astrologer

how did he know

that iqbal would want to

pee at precisely 6:45 A.M.?

How did he know that

when he would want to pee

the van would be crossing

the gomti river bridge.

How did he know that iqbal would

snatch constable bhadoria's revolver

and try to run?

He wasn't at the wedding.

Then how did you get to the bridge?

Here, I'm right here.

How did you get to the bridge?

Coincidence.

Hear that? Coincidence.

Thankfully I was at the

right place at the right time.

There are a lot of coincidences

in your story, Mr. Singh.

Your honour, I have a list of

all his 25 encounters.

Such coincidences have

often occurred in his life.

Just when the criminal

is about to shoot

he arrives out of

nowhere like a superhero!

And not just in lucknow,

but in other cities as well.

Your honour

19 out of the 25 families

of the encounter victims

have lodged complaints against him.

But not a single unbiased

investigation was ever carried out.

According to a report from

the anti-corruption bureau

he's believed to

own assets worth 280 million.

But they couldn't complete

their investigation either.

It was shut down.

And mathur brought his

old father out here on a wheelchair

to save a man like him.

I pity him and others like him.

I bow to you, thank you very much.

I bow to you and your advocacy.

Your honour, he is besmirching

an honest and brave

officer's character.

While you're silently watching.

Brave?

That's nonsense!

He shoots a handcuffed man

in the back

and you call him brave!

A man who earns a salary

of rs. 35,000 owns millions

and you call him honest.

He's like termite.

He'll weaken the system,

from the inside.

Show some respect!

Mr. mathur show some

respect for the country!

I can understand

jugal kishore mathur's pain.

A woman killed herself

because of me

and I couldn't sleep for months.

But Mr. mathur lost his son,

daughter-in-law and grandson.

Only one man other than.

Only one man other than

him can understand his pain.

Mr. zahur siddiqui.

Even he lost his daughter,

son-in-law

and unborn grandchild.

Their pain is similar, your honour.

Whether I call him

jugal kishore siddiqui or call him.

Zahur kishore mathur it

won't make a difference.

Your honour

two lives were lost on the

gomti river bridge that day.

One the newly

married iqbal qasim

and the other, was constable

baldev Singh bhadoria

who was supposed

to retire in 20 days.

And, your honour,
