Adv. Achinta Aich

Bunty.

Bunty!

-Bunty. -Coming!

Oh! Achinta uncle.

-Wait a minute. -Okay.

Here you go.

Thank you.

All the best, uncle.

Thank you.

-Any comments, sir? -Tell us!

Will Malini get bail?

-Who is Bhola Halder? -Please, sir!

-Answer us! -Please, sir.

How is Bhola Halder linked to the case?

Can you win the case?

Is Srijita the prime suspect?

My Lady.

I have an intervention order.

Bhola Halder can't be a witness.

He's not mentally stable.

Mr. Aich.

Bhola Halder can't take the stand for now.

Take this.

Okay, My Lady.

I won't call Bhola Halder.

Let me call Debnath Dutta.

How many siblings do you have?

We're four siblings.

Names?

Every educated and cultured person in the world knows our names.

Well, I'm neither educated nor cultured.

Names?

Debnath Dutta.

Somnath Dutta.

Bani Sen and Ira Dutta.

Where is Ira now?

She's dead.

I'm sorry.

When did she die?

Objection, My Lady.

Why is he bringing up the past?

This is simply harassment.

Defense.

Is it a leading question?

Yes, My Lady.

It is.

Give me some time.

Objection overruled.

Right.

When did she die?

Twenty-seven years ago.

What about Asit Halder?

He was our driver's son.

Died in an accident.

When?

Around 28 years ago.

In your house, right?

Hmm.

I'm sure you remember the incident in detail.

Certainly.

Then tell me...

Asit Halder and your sister, Ira Dutta...

Were they in a relationship?

Shut up!

You scoundrel!

What's this line of questioning?

How is this relevant?

Mr. Ganguly.

-Please keep your cool. -I'm sorry, My Lady but...

The Defense should keep in mind

Pandit Debnath Dutta is a national treasure.

Defense.

Stick to relevance, please.

My Lady.

This is a police diary entry from 28 years ago.

Lodged by Asit Halder's father...

Bhola Halder.

Let me read it out.

"A few days ago...

Ira came to my house with Asit. "

No, no.

I can't give my approval.

You can't get married without telling Ira's family.

Don't you know how my brothers are?

They'll never accept us.

Please, Bhola uncle.

This is not right.

Don't do anything without informing your mother.

"I sent her home. "

"I was waiting for them to return when... "

-Uncle. -Huh?

Asit fell down the stairs and hurt his head.

What?

They've taken him to the hospital.

-Let's go. Hurry! -Come on.

"They killed...

my son. "

Ira and Asit went to the Dutta House...

...to tell them about their relationship.

That very day, Asit fell down the stairs and died.

Isn't it?

Nothing like that happened.

Halder lied.

Bhola Halder...

accused you and Somnath Dutta of killing his son.

Objection, My Lady.

I'm sorry but...

We're suffering because the Defense lacks education.

Under Section 172

a police diary entry is not admissible in court as evidence.

Yes.

But DNA evidence is admissible for offenses

according to IPC 1860.

Pablo Dutta.

He was actually Ira and Asit's biological son.

Bhola Halder is his grandfather.

This is Bhola's DNA report.

And this is...

the pre-natal DNA report of Malini's unborn child.

It's a match.

Did you know?

Order!

Order!

Silence in my court!

The media is not allowed to report on the case

until the court orders.

The media is officially barred from the court.

This is a closed court from now on.

Please evacuate the court.

Except family members

everyone must leave the court.

Get going.

You don't have to leave.

Please sit.

My Lady.

I want to call Pablo's...

I want to call Abhaya Dutta.

Debnath Dutta.

Please step down.

We didn't want the truth to come out.

We were scared.

We did all it took.

If the truth came out, everyone would know

Pablo is not my own son.

But believe me.

I loved Pablo...

more than my life.

To a mother, a child is a child.

A mother is a mother.

Abhaya.

Is Pablo a citizen of the UK?

After Asit died...

Ira had gone quiet.

Just like Malini.

A few days later, we found out...

she was pregnant.

But there were complications.

So she couldn't abort the baby.

That's when...

Somnath, Ira and I...

moved to London overnight.

Pablo was born in London.

But due to excessive bleeding...

two days after her delivery...

Ira died.

Somnath and I...

stayed back in London with Pablo.

We lied to our relatives.

We said Somnath will open a shop for musical instruments.

So we had to settle there.

Only a few knew the truth.

My mother-in-law.

Debnath.

Bani.

And my brother, Rudra.

When Pablo turned one...

Somnath and I legally adopted him.

And returned to India.

Tell me something.

Pablo was anxious.

He was upset.

Was it because he learnt the truth?

Is that why you told Pablo...

to run away with Malini?

Srijita told Pablo that I am not his birth mother.

Pablo kept asking me.

I didn't tell him at first.

But then...

Pablo stopped eating.

He started drinking alcohol.

He even stopped playing the sarod.

So I had to tell him.

I also told him...

to run away with Malini.

I told them

to run away.

But he didn't listen.

Do you think Pablo was killed to silence him?

Could the Duttas have murdered him?

Objection.
