the face of the moon unblemished,

the day Time awakens

justice! Justice!

Justice shall be sewed!

If you have just lost your child...

that also under really

horrible circumstances...

How can you be so clinical and so logical?

I saw Mrs. Tandon's interview

on your channel.

I felt as if perhaps she isn't

even their own daughter...

she may be adopted...

I suggest we should

have a DNA test done.

DNA test suggests Delhi's

famous socialite Shoma Ray.

Blood relation or not...

the police has no right to defame

such a small child, who is dead!

I think that policeman should not be

allowed to remain on his post.

After going through the case details,

the Home Ministry has requested the

CDI to take over the case...

Based on the findings of the

CDl's investigation...

further action will be taken

against whomsoever it may be.

After the embarrassing work

by the police, the CDI team

has now arrived in the area.

The case will now be handled by.

CDI joint director Ashwin Kumar.

Doctor, this is the girl's room...

that's the servant's room...

let's get cracking!

Found anything?

2-3 bottles of beer and wine,

and some toiletries in the bathroom...

'Serve you parents... take them

to the four holy shrines'

'Feeding a cow would help

rid the house of evil spirits'

'Feeding a dog will defeat your enemies'

Did Khempal drink?

Occasionally or everyday?

He never touched alcohol.

He smoked beedis though,

on the terrace.

Sir?

Could you come here for a second?

Okay...

Whose bottles are these?

I don't know...

Sir these bloodstains are not only

between the terrace and Tandon's flat...

they are on the lower floors

as well, going down.

They could have been made when

the police was bringing the body down?

Possible, Sir...

totally contrary to the FIR.

That means Khempal walked

to the terrace himself...

alive...

Ah! We only need some

background music now...

You are truly Sherlock Holmes, Vedant!

You flatter me Sir!

Have a seat.

Ahh goddamn it! You fool!

Dr. Tandon, I'm Ashwin Kumar

I'm handling your case...

What time did you go to sleep

on the night of 15th March?

Around 11 pm...

That night, the internet router

switched on and off

a number of times

between 11:
30pm and 6am...

Any explanation?

No.

What time did you wake up

the next morning?

Khempal?

Khempal?

Wait a minute...

The number you've called is unavailable.

His phone isn't connecting.

Sit for five minutes.

Madam? You have the duplicate keys right?

Yes...

Throw them from the balcony,

I'll go down and catch it.

Okay-

Ramesh!

Shruti! Shruti!

- Madam!

Look at what Khempal has done!

- Sir a byte?

We didn't even get enough time

to cry and mourn her death...

They say...

after we killed her...

we cleaned her blood...

wiped our fingerprints...

cleaned her private parts...

and drank whiskey...

I wouldn't even be able to inject

her gums before treating her cavities...

and they're saying I slit her throat...

There were two murders

beyond your bedroom wall...

you didn't hear anything at all?

I have told the police already

about our bedroom AC...

it had been faulty since many days...

it makes so much noise that

it's impossible to hear anything outside.

Sorry... what did you tell the police?

You couldn't hear anything?

Nope.

Sir, a normal AC runs at 50 - 75 decibels,

this AC is reaching 85 - 90 decibels...

it is impossible for any outside

noise to be heard inside.

Hey Basu! Hope A. R. Rahman

doesn't steal you away from us!

Chief!

There's a bit of confusion...

The bloody hand print on the terrace...

there's no analysis report on it.

Why not?

No idea what these jokers have done.

Dhaniram?

Yes Sir...

Where has the print vanished?

There was unseasonal rain on 18th March...

it must have washed away.

But the forensics department says they never

got any information about a blood print.

That's weird...

I gave it myself...

I think there has been

some misunderstanding.

- You informed Forensics, right?

- Yes sir, absolutely.

- How?

- We phoned them.

Who phoned them?

I had told Pandey...

- Pandey, you called Forensics, right?

- Yes sir, absolutely sir...

but my outgoing was blocked

so I told Suresh to do it.

Sir I had gone with you on the PM duty,

but I'd told Qureshi to do it.

- And where's Qureshi?

- He's gone home for his daughter's wedding...

You, bloody good for nothing idiot!

What am I supposed to say to Sir now?

Say sorry to the boss now!

Sorry, Sir...

It's okay. But next time there's a murder

and the killer leaves a bloody hand print..

Just be more careful about it, okay?

- Yes sir...

- Very good!

How do you know

she died at 2:
00 am?

Sir?

Time of death?

Sir, if you don't tell

me the time of death...

I cannot complete the rituals

of immersing the ashes.

- Panditji... -

the death occurred between

11:
00 pm and 6:00 am.

You could enter it as 2:00 am.

2:
00 in the morning

I just made a rough guess...

I'm going to ask a few questions...

just answer in

a simple yes or no.

Is your name Ramesh Tandon?

Yes.

Is your wife's name Nutan Tandon?

Yes.

Are you sure your husband has not killed

your daughter Shruti?

Yes.

Did you suspect there was anything

between Shruti and Khempal?

No.

Is your husband short tempered?

No.

- Are you sure? -

Mrs. Tandon?

Yes.

When you entered Shruti's room,

was she alive?

No.

Shruti's door could be unlocked

from the outside, only with a key?

Yes.

You left the key in the lock that night?

Yes.

Deliberately?

No.

Do you have anything to do

with your daughter's murder?

No!

What's in this?

Your things...

My things,".

Both of you sign here...

Your trial separation period

starts tomorrow...

Thank you, I'll take your leave.

Have you seen the film "ljaazat"?

No... Why?

Just asked...

[Sings] Some of my things

still remain with you..

So basically we get nothing.

Nope. In such cases everything depends

on the first investigation team...

and as you can see,

the first team did a bang up job...

Any possible prints or DNA samples,

they're all...

Yes, I know, I know... it's all contaminated,

the crime scene was heavily compromised...

But I don't need a sermon,

I need a solution Dr. Swamy!

- I'm so sorry...

- Damn!

Jai Hind Sir.

- Take a seat. -

Whose idea was it?

Which idea, Sir?

The honor killing one...

My experience Sir...

the fruit of days and

nights of hard work...

it was a very

difficult investigation...

Very difficult.

Ah, 'Investigation'!

So you were the first one

to arrive at the scene?

Yes Sir.

And what did you do?

The servant was missing,

so we began looking for him...

You didn't call the forensics team

to collect prints and samples?

Sniffer dogs?

Err... No Sir...

Was there a cooler

panel on Khempal's body?

Er... why yes Sir, there was...

Who must have kept it?

Who would have kept it?

So why didn't you take it

for fingerprints?

The cooler was heavy and...

I was being treated for hemorrhoids...

Oh! Okay Okay.
