They won't let you go till you do

Do you know this girl?

I don't know, madam

We know you and Varun

were together in the camp

He has been missing

for the past 24 days

The police is looking for him

There's some connection between

this girl and Varun who is missing

If you are frank with us

it is good for you

I don't know anything, sir

You know

The last call to him

was from your phone

When we asked you earlier

about his whereabouts...

...you denied vehemently

That's a lie

If you plan on lying again...

Aunty, I swear

I don't know anything

I called him that day

But he didn't tell me

where he was

Okay

Tell me about this girl

I don't know, aunty

Tell me the truth

Don't, Suresh

We have evidence

he was the last caller, right?

Yes, madam

Register a case against him

stating he is a criminal

Yes, madam

Come along

No, sir

I'll tell you

I'll tell you now

Dude, send this to me

No, bro

Don't ask for this alone

Why?

I can't give you this

I have to finish a job using this

After that, I'll give it to you

You can start

Madam, there's a huge crowd outside

I don't know how they know

But they've brought cameras

It's being telecast 'live' on TV

Ask them to clear out

They are from the Press

They insist on seeing you

I am not interested

in seeing anyone

No one must get

into this compound

Ask for extra force

if necessary

Come, I say

This has got out of hand

Everyone clear out

Perumal, you stay here

I know about the video

There's no need to

hide anything hereafter

Tell me

Where is my son?

We are not hiding anything

Only if we know

we can hide anything

I need to know the truth

Okay, madam

What?

Sir...sir

Get lost

It hurts

Hurts?

Does it hurt you

if I hit your dad?

What?

Tell me!

Tell me

Tell us

Tell us what happened

You...!

This hand

This hand won't hurt

If I hit them anymore,

they will die

If you don't want that...

...tell me everything you know

Otherwise...

...I'll beat them to death

Tell me

Do you want them to die?

Tell me

If you know something...

...please tell me

Careful

Dad, Meena

Meena?

You can't go inside

My baby is in there

My little girl is inside

Clear out of this place

Why did he come

to your house?

I don't know

I don't know anything

Take me to my dad

Stop crying and

tell me the truth

Don't piss me off

I'll kill and bury you

No need, dad

Let's come clean

If I have to go to jai-

Did we get beaten up for this?

That man is a demon

He might harm our little Meena

None of you will go to jail

I give you my word

If something goes wrong

with my word...

...I won't be alive

If one of you confesses...

...you're signing my death warrant

You think our little Meena might blab-

She's a smart cookie

You think she will blabber?

How many times

we have rehearsed!

Tell me...tell me

I'll cut your head

and your father's too

Tell me

I don't know, uncle

I want to go to my dad

Enough of this

It's illegal

Even God won't tolerate this

What about our son?

Shouldn't we know

what has happened?

There are a 100 decent

ways to interrogate

This is all too-

Gawd!

You call this interrogation?

Who will pay for this sin?

We've tortured them barbarically

You got any evidence?

What if this chap is wrong?

Such a pipsqueak

and so tight lipped!

Ma...!

Don't kill me

I'll tell you

I'll tell

Dad

Let me go

Where?

Where are you taking

my daughter?

Your daughter is showing us

where you have buried that boy

Your game is up

The whole family

will go to jail now

Even God cannot save you

Drag him into the car

(raised angry voices)

Why can't we see-

Be quiet

Don't create a ruckus here

Don't scream all at once

I'm talking for all of us

They are not letting us

go inside and meet them

Sir, bless you

Please let us in

We want to see them

He's my son-in-law

We can't let anyone inside

There's an order

the criminals can't be seen

How dare you call them criminals?

What crime did they commit?

Let me tell you, sir

This is a policeman's conspiracy

He's taking revenge

What is the problem, sir?

Yesterday, the police took them

and interrogated them

Why?

An Inspector General's son

is missing it seems

I'll tell you...this whole town

knows this is a false case

I've known Suyambu

for 30 years

He never gets involved in

troubles of any kind

Very decent family

They haven't done anything wrong

He is an honest self made man

This policeman is taking

revenge on this family

Who is this policeman?

That man, standing next

to the sub-inspector

His name is Perumal

He's a scoundrel

The whole town knows this

Suyambu confronted him

He has held a grudge

and is now retaliating

What are you all looking at?

Can a policeman do

anything he wants?

Leave them

Let's go in

(commotion)

He nearly stepped on me

like he was about to kill me

That's why I told him

That man hit my precious baby?

Yes

Sorry, dad

I couldn't help myself, I told him

Are you angry with dad?

No, dad

Are you angry that I confes-

(gasps in pain)

- No...no, honey

- Angry with me?

What you did was right

Everything will be fine

Look at your granddaughter

Look at how the policeman

Perumal has hit our Meena

Hey Allah!

They hit us for no fault of ours

You ask for justice

Yes, I hit you

And I'll hit you again here

Don't raise your hand

Don't spare him

How dare you!

Thrash him

Let's leave this place

Don't run

Stop!

Did the police hit you?

Meena, don't be scared

No one can hurt us anymore

Tell them

Tell them what happened

Tell them, dear

Don't be scared

'Regarding the death of Varun, son of

Inspector General Geetha Prabhakar...'

'...Suyambulingam and

his family from Papanasam'

'...have been found not guilty'

'Following this, a police officer Perumal

has been suspended for police brutality'

'Other policemen involved in

this case including Suresh Babu...'

'...have been transferred'

'The Director General of Police

has asked Geetha Prabhakar...'

'...to take leave of absence'

'Suyambulingam and his family cannot

be interrogated without court permission'

'...as ordered by the High court

of Tirunelveli district'

Dear?

You saw the paper?

What?

Inspector General

Geetha Prabhakar has resigned

Poor lady!

How can she be blamed?

It's terrible losing a son

Even if she's a top police official

she's also a mother, right?

We've been very cruel to her

This just shows how

magnanimous you are

Think about it this way

If because of what

that boy did...

...our child's life

had been ruined?

You think this same lady

would have felt sad for us?

She would have wanted

to save her own son

Normal human tendency

to be self-centered

To each man his life is priority

I've been telling my kids

to speak the truth for so long

Now I have taught them to lie

That's what is killing me

We shouldn't think about it

We'll think about how

to erase it from our hearts

Tell me

When did you move that boy?

When I dumped his car

into the pond

Where?

Let the truth...
