You're cured now?

From the piles?

I'm better now Sir, thank you.

Shall we check? Take off your pants...

Huh?

Take off your pants...

TAKE THEM OFF!

Dhaniram...

Nutan called Khempal at 6:02 am

on his cell...

It rang, was answered,

then disconnected,

then switched off, right?

Did you follow up

with the mobile server?

The servant was missing, so

we assumed he was the killer...

and began searching for him...

Well done!

There was a rod here...

look for it.

Look for the rod...

Take off your pants!

Sir, I've been a cop for ten years...

Strip, and search for the rod...

Sir, I've worked for ten years...

At 06:
02 when the phone connected,

where was it?

I don't know Sir!

Within the radius of the crime scene!

Can a dead man answer his phone?

No Sir.

Did you find out who answered the call?

No Sir!

Not a single fingerprint is clear...

You morons call this an 'investigation'?

I'm sorry sir...

You turned the crime scene

into a fish market!

Passers by... relatives.

.. Neighbours... journalists...

all strolling around

like it's a public garden!

If you had a little intelligence,

even a minuscule ounce of it...

this case would've

been solved right then!

I'm sorry Sir...

I was facing a lot of pressure...

Was any of Shruti's blood

found on her parents' clothes?

Yes Sir.

Any of the servant's blood?

No Sir.

The blood of both the victims was

found in the room?

No Sir, only the girl's blood...

The parents had cleaned

up the servant's blood...

What was the color of the girl's blood?

Red?

Must've been red, right?

Yes Sir...

And the servant's was blue?

That's how they must've cleaned only

the servant's blood, right?

By cleaning up all the blue stuff?

Even if a drop of the servant's blood

had fallen in the room...

and even if they had cleaned it...

the forensic scientists

would have still found out.

This 'honor killing'...

whose bright idea was it?

Speak up.

Ramesh Sir used to talk

on the mobile phone for hours...

with Sunita Madam.

And...

Whenever Nutan Madam used to be

out of station for her lectures...

They used to lock themselves

inside the clinic and...

What did they do?

I guess they would chat...

Is that what you guys call it?

Oh Sir, you're funny...

How many years have you

worked with Tandon?

I guess... around four years...

What else did you see?

There was a depression in the cot...

like someone had sat on it.

A few bottles... glasses...

and the toilet was so dirty!

Like the Jamuna ghat!

But surely... there were other people

in the house that night...

Did you notice anything unusual in

Dr. Ramesh's behavior?

No, I don't remember...

Anything unusual at work?

Kanhaiya!

- Yes Sir?

- What is this?

What the hell is this?

Haven't you learned anything

all these years?

Can't even make a cast properly!

If you can't do your job properly

then leave!

This happened a week

before Shruti's death...

I'd never seen Ramesh so angry...

B!

It was very strange because

it was a very small thing...

All of Tandon's staff...

everyone in the colony

servants, maids...

round everyone up immediately.

Yes Chief.

If any of you lie... you'll be held

as accomplice for the murder...

The killer will be hung...

and the liar will

get life imprisonment.

I've already said everything I know.

I didn't have much

to do with Tandon Sir...

At times Shruti baby used to give me

some errands to run and that's it.

Sir, I'm an insomniac...

that's why I work as a watchman.

Sometimes these people would meet

in Khempal's room and play cards.

Kanhaiya and Khempal are

from the same village.

I don't know anything,

I'm just the laundry guy.

Yes, I have a boyfriend Sir...

but he's married to someone else.

Sir I think the Doctor only

has committed the murder.

That night no one entered

or exited the house.

Whoever won the card game

would buy drinks for everyone.

Yes Sir I remember...

Kanhaiya was very angry

the day the Doctor shouted at him...

Enough is enough!

He called me a b

in front of everyone...

How could he?!

I will make him pay for this one!

Relax... He just lost his temper...

He's a good man...

I will take my revenge at any cost...

I will show him who the real b is!

Are you sure about this?

Sir, whatever the parents have said so far

in the investigation,

has turned out to be true.

Nutan had called Khempal in the morning...

Then the AC sound test in the room...

They even passed the polygraph tests

without a hitch.

You better hope all this

turns out to be wrong.

Or the torture and injustice

that the parents have

been put through...

One won't be able to

make amends for it...

Even.

Ashwin...

Have you seen the statue of justice?

It is blindfolded...

and one hand holds a weight balance...

People often don't notice

that the other hand holds a sword.

The sword in the hands of justice is us...

us cops...

But in the last 60 years,

the sword has become rusty...

And until the rust is cleaned off,

this is how it will be... how it will stay.

I'm retiring on the 19th of next month.

I know...

You have 32 days...

to clean the rust off the sword.

The day the sky is unscathed

the face of the moon unblemished,

the day Time awakens

justice! Justice!

Justice shall be sewed!

Nothing in here...

I'll check on the other side.

Basu! Find anything?

Looking Sir.

- Ashwin... -

Please keep this.

Hey...

What... is this?

I think we've found

our murder weapon...

Yes Vedant...

We've got permission for the Narco test...

Good... very good!

Investigative officers are

not allowed in Narco tests.

Doc I'm on the verge

of solving this case...

I just need one breakthrough!

Pestering like a child!

You know I can't help you with this...

Okay, could you give me your phone?

Who are you calling?

Calling myself.

I think he picked up... Please speak!

Hello... Dr. Swamy?

What is this?

This is a live telecast...

Don't hang up...

We're not breaking the law, okay?

If I need to ask any questions

I'll text doctor Mohanty.

Thank you!

This is Sodium Pentathol.

You will feel a bit drowsy...

but you will remain awake.

He is stable...

you can begin now.

Kanhaiya?

Kanhaiya?

Yes Sir.

Tell us something about

Shruti and Khempal?

Was there really something

going on between them?

Kanhaiya?

No Sir.

He loved her like his own daughter...

Then?

RP was the one who loved her...

Who is RP?

Rajpal...

Nathani Sir's driver.

When was the last time

you met Khempal?

At the Rockhouse...

What is Rockhouse?

'Resham... Resham... Resham Resham..'

Kanhaiya... pour me another one...

Make another one!

What the hell Kanhaiya!

Worked for so long and still

haven't learned a thing?

This is funny huh?

Piss me off some more

and I'll pull the doctor's entrails

inside out right now!

Quiet guys... quiet down!

Everyone is asleep.

Everyone is asleep!

My love must be awake though eh?

Stop talking loosely about the girl!

She's like a daughter to me...

Sure, like a daughter...
