"SACHY, WE DEDICATE THIS MOVIE

TO YOUR EVERLASTING MEMORIES." -GOLD COIN MOTION PICTURES

IN MEMORY OF ANIL NEDUMANGAD

IN MEMORY OF RAHUL RAVI

What we witnessed was beautiful.

But what we're about to witness is even more beautiful.

I am talking about the final battle…

of the 16th All Kerala Tug-of-War Competition

organized by the Areekkara Club.

We have thousands of tug-of-war lovers here…

cheering, celebrating and focusing their utmost attention on the game.

The winner is going to get the most attractive game prize offered in Kerala.

It includes Rs. 88,888 and a full-grown goat.

A best of three battle is about to happen

between the teams who have won each set as equal forces.

Who will win the golden cup today?

Who will cross the centerline first?

Fourteen champion players are here to battle it out.

Come on, clap for them!

The score is 1-1.

President.

Come on, write it in the police team's name.

Yeah. The second prize, right?

Do you want to bet?

Let those boys win the cup, man.

Which boys?

Aren't you ashamed to support Praveen's team?

Why should I be ashamed?

He's a policeman. Ask him to play for the police team.

It's been only two years since he joined the police force.

He's been playing for Kings since he was really young.

Okay, stop it. That's enough. Come on.

-How do you feel? -Better.

Hey, move.

If anyone from our team gets hurt, we will take care of him.

-You needn't intervene! -Calm down.

-Move! -But I didn't see anyone here.

What are you mumbling?

-What did I do, sir? -You're not a physiotherapist.

Let it go. Don't mind him.

He's creating a scene for no reason.

Don't bother about him.

Sports lovers,

our dear candidate, Miss Betty Jose, is visiting the playground.

Welcome her with a big round of applause.

We need your applause and cheers for this battle.

On one side, we have Ernakulam District Police Rural,

who have defeated their well-equipped opponents…

with their brains and brawn,

and won the cup for the last two years.

And on the other side…

Why did you do that?

…shocking those who had written them off,

the dark horses of this tournament, Kings Piravom.

After the final battle, who will kiss the cup? Who will embrace the cup?

We will find out in a few minutes. Come on, clap for them!

A warm welcome to our dear Superintendent of Police, Mr. Rajendran,

who has come here to hand over the prizes to the winners.

Will he be able to present the cup to his own team?

Let's wait and watch! Keep cheering for the teams!

The playground is full of excitement and fervor.

Fourteen champion players…

are about to begin their battle.

Team, ready?

Ready?

Start!

Come on, clap for them.

The battleground is about to witness some tense moments.

Who will cross the centerline first?

Searching for the answer, here are Praveen Michael and team!

Come on, clap for them!

The rope is swaying. With the fervor of applause from the sports lovers,

without any intention to lose, and with the speed of a cheetah,

fourteen champion players are battling it out.

Praveen Michael and team…

are inching towards victory.

-Pull it! -Come on, clap for them!

Pull it!

With the speed of a cheetah and the precision of a vulture,

both the teams are building a strong defense.

By understanding the opponents' skills…

and exploiting their weaknesses, who will march towards victory?

Seems like it's going to be Praveen Michael and team! Clap for them!

Will Kings Piravom cross the final ten feet and emerge victorious?

Come on, cheer for them!

With thunderous applause from their supporters,

Praveen Michael and team are inching towards victory.

Clap for them!

And Kings Piravom has won the game!

Defeating the mighty Kerala Police…

the dark horses of this year, Kings Piravom!

Kings Piravom!

Clap for them!

They've offered a memorable game for the audience out here.

A battle that has rewritten history.

This amazing performance was displayed by…

Kings Piravom!

Around 68 champion teams…

from 14 districts had participated in this competition

conducted by the Areekkara Club, Areekkara.

Defeating those 67 teams,

the warriors of Kings Piravom have won the first prize.

And they have become the champions of this competition.

Mr. Praveen!

You know the drill. I don't have to explain, do I?

It's a postal vote. Here's your mother's election slip.

I know you'll vote for us, but I'm just reminding you again.

Just give us the postal ballot. We'll do it.

I haven't got it yet.

-Oh. -How is your mother doing?

She's fine. She's resting inside.

Do you need a car to bring your mother to vote on election day?

-No, I'll manage. Thanks. -Okay, then.

Bye.

Hey, Praveen!

Why aren't you dressed yet?

How can you be so lazy when you have to go meet a prospective bride?

I have had enough of it.

You're getting late!

Go and get ready! I'll do the rest!

-I-- -Go!

I'm going!

Auntie, look!

She posted this photo yesterday.

And this one, in the morning.

Look. She posted this one just five minutes back.

-She is having a blast there. -Dad, look at this.

Why does he have to get depressed thinking about her?

What can I do, dear?

-He doesn't listen to me. -Dad, hold this.

Hey! Come here!

What are you doing?

-Hey-- -Please don't play with it!

I can barely handle your dad playing with it!

-Come here. -Why are you scolding the child?

Our husbands won't come home until we marry off Praveen.

That's why I'm taking all this trouble.

-Hey, see you at the club in the evening. -Okay.

Are you going to meet the girl dressed like this?

Praveen! Hey!

Where are you going now?

They are waiting for you!

DySP has summoned me.

I'll lose my job if I don't go.

Ask them if they'd get their daughter married to a jobless guy.

If they are okay with that,

then it's alright.

Okay, dude.

I'd told you, right?

How are we supposed to go to that girl's house now?

Enough.

Prepare tea for me.

Which doctor are you consulting now?

How did you land up in front of the SP

when you were on medical leave for your back pain?

He gave us the trophy yesterday.

Do you know what he said to me?

He asked me to refer you to the medical board and get you fired.

I have gotten you exempted from that.

For your father's sake.

Your local station duty is due, right?

Go get your passport from the camp and join there.

Can you operate a computer?

-No, sir. -No one admits it even if they can.

We've exhausted the additional quota for diesel.

If we've caught some tipper motortruck without a pass, get them to fill it.

He's new. Tell him about his duties.

Okay, sir.

-Sir, will you be going out? -No.

Then, may I take the jeep?

I've got information about an LP case accused. I'll go and check.

The driver is out on permission until noon.

Do you at least know how to drive?

Yes, sir. I have the authorization.

Charge a couple of suo motu cases on the way.

Okay, sir.

Who all are there in your family?

Just my mother.

You might have known my father, sir. He was an ASI.

He died eight years ago in an accident while he was posted at Ramapuram Station.

Oh, yes! Mr. R. K. Michael!

Oh! You are Mr. R. K. Michael's son!

His initials were not R. K. but his last name was Michael. Yes.

Yes, right!

He had a paunch, a bald head…

and eyes that almost popped out.

His eyes were full of rage.

Mr. Michael!

We used to call him "R. K."

Your father was the one who trained us.

-Time flies so quickly, right? -33 mobile, respond!

33 mobile answering.

Location, Panambukad!

Remember, you have to pay attention to this set.

Stop here.

You can go.

Don't go alone, sir. I'll come with you.

I haven't come here to catch a culprit.

I forgot my bike here last night as I was drunk.

Don't tell this to anyone.

Get going. I'll see you later.

Okay, sir.

Stop!

Please register your valuable votes for Betty Jose here.

Mom!

I'm okay. I just got into the car.

I'm coming to the station.

If you want to file a complaint, you'll--

No, sir. I'm a policewoman.

You're late today, Sunitha.

Namaste, sir. I was on outdoor duty today.

She's our girl.

See you at the station.

Ask them to come to the station.

I'll give them the money.

And ask the workers to keep the cement sacks covered.

I had sent it.

Got it?

Okay.

-Mom, I've arrived at the station. -Plant those properly.

See if you can get some cow dung for this.

Apply cow dung all around it once you finish planting them.

Yes, sir.

Hey!

This isn't the police camp.

You don't have to salute me every time you see me.

Sir!

Sir, the writer is calling you.

Newcomers have to give the seniors a treat.

Next Friday, the breakfast after the parade will be on you.

-Okay. We'll make it grand. -Platoon, attention!

Platoon, stand at ease!

Father, has your assault case been compromised?

Don't hit people so roughly or else, they'd die.

-What grade are you studying in? -Eleventh.

Does your family know about this?

-What's your name? -Albert.

How can you trust guys like him?

You're not even an adult yet.

-Where does your dad work? -He works abroad.

What were you both doing in the car?

Do your parents spend money on your education for this?

Look at her face!

What happened?

She was roaming around with this guy during her free period.

One of the members informed me.

-What's your name? -Albert.

-Where do you stay? -Pala.

-Louder! -Pala!

-Is there any case in your name? -No, sir.

What's your name?

Krishnapriya.

Inform their families.

-Give me your parents' number. -It's 97…

-97? -466…

I will be late.

Go to the clinic, Mom.

I'll join you there.

The number you're calling…

Mr. Maniyan… we're collecting money for Mr. Babu's son's wedding.

The Director General has issued a new order…

that says we should go on a trip to reduce our stress.

They won't make us do yoga, right?

I hope we get the day off.

Maniyan, DySP has said that no one can go home until the pending files are closed.

If you have too many of those, you're doomed!

Get lost, you idiot!

What is this?

POLICE

Take that girl to the women's cell.

Get away from her!

Step aside, girl.

If you're on driver duty, you should be near the car.

I had gone to the toilet, sir.

Is this the time to shit?

Stop near that black gate.

What are you doing? Only three days are left for the competition.

Is this how you're going to dance? Show it to her.

Do you remember the first step?

One…

She must win this time. I have spent a lot of money.

I can get her three A grades.

But the first, second, and third prizes are decided by the judges.

You're a cop. Come on, use your influence.

Start from where you went wrong.

I don't think it's possible.

-Where is your phone? -I am leaving.

-I've been calling you for so long. -It must be lying there somewhere.

I must know my daughter's whereabouts!

I'd told you yesterday that she has a holiday today. You must have forgotten.

Haven't I told you not to leave her alone with her teacher?

You don't know the kinds of things that are happening out there.

Half your problems would be solved if you get rid of this uniform.

Do you want some?

How many times do I have to tell you? Raise your elbow!

Praveen!

Come here!

It's okay. I'll wait here.

Come. Have some jackfruit.

She's won all these prizes. This one at the district level.

This one is for the Atham competition.

It's the State Youth Festival day after tomorrow. Have a seat.

She's competing in three categories.

Story narration, folk dance, and monodrama.

She will win this time.

The election's also around the corner.

If my leave is not sanctioned, I'll take medical leave.

Hey!

Come here.

This is our artist.

Perform your monodrama for Uncle.

-Now? -Yes.

"Grandma!

Grandma!

Why do we have to sell our ancestral house, temple, and farms

to buy a new apartment?

Grandma, can't you tell my father not to sell all this?"

"Oh! My dear!

My children don't obey me anymore.

-On the contrary, -Hello, sir!

-I have to obey all of you. -I'll be there right away.

I'm left with no other option. I can't advise…"

33 mobile, please respond.

Mobile 33 answering.

We're waiting at the boundary.

It's clear.

Roger.

Sir, mic one will be here soon. Get in quickly.

Hey! Don't assign me any duties for the next two days!

Got it?

I have to attend the association's meeting.

If the government falls after this by-election,

it'll be a hell lot of work for us.

It won't fall, sir.

The Chief Minister is running the campaign, right?

Too bad that the CM didn't give a seat to Joshy Mathew.

He was always with him working really hard.

How can the CM take any risk when the seats are at 69-70?

Instead, if he gives that chance to a dead person's daughter,

he will get sympathy!

Praveen, yours is a postal vote, right?

Praveen, last time when he went with my ballot,

he promised to get me transferred to vigilance.

I'm having a great time in vigilance now, aren't I?

Don't forget the name, Advocate G. Raveendranath.

Why did you go to their house at night?

It was her birthday, sir.

I'd gone to give her a gift.

You could've done that during the day.

I'm sorry, sir.

Praveen.

What's the issue, sir?

We've got an order from the authorities to kill that boy we met at the station.

He'd gone to his girlfriend's house last night to give her a gift.

And that girl is related to a minister.

I've been asked to book him with a non-bailable offense.

Even goons have the freedom to accept or reject such orders…

but we don't.

-I just talked to your superintendent. -Oh.

First room from here.

Let the bottle remain here.

John M. Thomas, son of Thomas, of Palaykkal House…

situated in Piravom of Arakkunnam village

has given this statement on 19th November 2019

to Maniyan KP of Piravom Police Station.

"As part of a property dispute,

22-year-old Arun, son of Shekharan, of Attumangalath House,

had threatened to kill me.

Last night, i.e. on the night of 18th November 2019,

after all of us went to sleep,

he broke into our house…

poured petrol all over the place and set it on fire.

Had we not extinguished the fire quickly, we would have been dead by now.

He's still sending us such death threats,

so I humbly request you to take strict actions against him."

I have read the statement and signed it.

Okay.

Your mother is inside.

Her creatinine level has increased quite a bit. I think it's because…

she has been taking medicines for arthritis for years.

I'll give a reference letter to a nephrologist at Amritha Hospital.

I have also booked an appointment for the day after tomorrow.

You must go there without fail and start the treatment immediately.

-She has suffered so much. -You should make her understand.

She's coming. Talk to her directly.

Okay, then.

-Bye. -Bye.

They're here to talk about Biju.

Go inside, Mom.

What is it, brother?

Why did you report this at the station, dear?

What other option did I have?

You're doing all this because I am helpless, right?

I'm struggling so much to complete the construction of this house.

Please don't trouble me.

You know how he is, right?

He's crazy. Later don't say that we didn't warn you.

I'll handle it, brother.

Go inside, Mom!

I've told you not to talk to these people unnecessarily.

Don't worry about that, sir.

She liked it, right? Then, buy that one.

Don't worry about the price.

We can do that.

Yes.

Okay.

Yes.

-Sir! -Wait a second.

The CI has asked us to issue a memo to latecomers.

There'd been an accident in front of the hospital and he's really angry.

Go quickly.

-I was going to ask him for leave. -Go. You'll get it right away.

Yes, sir.

Okay, then.

Don't look at them, Mom!

You should go home, Mom. There are workers at home, right?

-I will talk to the CI. Don't worry. -Okay.

Go.

Yeah, I'll be there.

Hey!

How dare you spit on that wall!

This is a police station!

Why are you getting angry, sir?

-Let it go, sir. -Should I wipe it?

-Wipe it. -Alright.

Just wipe it!

-You're messing with me? -Sir! Leave it, sir!

-Let it go, sir. -Come, sir.

Don't you dare leave without wiping it!

-Let it go, sir. -Just wipe it.

-I'll make him do it, sir. -Come, sir.

-Wipe it! -Come, sir.

-Wipe it! -I'll make him do it.

-I'll make him wipe it. -You won't leave without wiping it!

Let it go, sir.

-Come, sir. -Move!

Please, sir.

-You won't leave without wiping it! -I will do it.

I will do it. Please, sir.

What happened, sir?

He's my relative, sir. He keeps harassing me.

I'd asked the Circle Inspector to talk to him.

Tomorrow onward, all those who are on traffic duty

must get to the duty point on time!

Or else I'll get you all fired!

I'm the one who has to suffer because of your damn mistakes!

-Where are you going? -Hello!

-You'll be called. -I said I can't do it!

-What? -I need leave for three days.

It's the election. I can't grant you leave.

I have to take my mother to the hospital tomorrow.

All the ministers are holding conventions here from today, including the CM.

I need to provide force for all that and you want me to grant you leave!

Sir, there's no one else at home to take her there.

Don't trouble me now! Get lost, idiot!

If you can't grant me leave, say that.

You don't have to abuse me.

Anyway, it's urgent.

-So, I'll take medical leave. -I'll see how you take medical leave!

I'll get you fired!

Get lost!

Sir, give me that phone.

Bow down and get it.

We don't bow down anymore, sir. It's a thing of the past.

You won't leave until I get my phone.

What is this, sir?

-Let him go, sir. -I'll punch your face, you idiot!

If you touch me, you'll lose your job!

-What about me? -Stop it!

You…

come here! I'll not spare you!

-Lock him inside! -Let go of me!

Let go of him!

Let go of him, sir! You'll have to pay for it!

Let go of him!

-Move! -We won't spare you!

-What's happening here? -Sir, he hit me! He's drunk as well!

Take him for a medical checkup and book him under PDPP!

Where's the paper?

-Hey, Mr. Maniyan! -Hey, Mr. Maniyan!

-If you hurt our boy, -If you hurt our boy,

we will barge into your house and kill you!

-Scram, all of you! -Hey!

-Hey, Mr. Maniyan! -Move the gun away!

-Hey, Mr. Maniyan! -Hey, Mr. Maniyan!

What's your name?

-Hey, Mr. Maniyan! -Hey, Mr. Maniyan!

I'll fill in the details, sir.

Getting back at me, are you?

He'll learn once he goes to jail for six months.

Why wait for six months, sir?

Let's settle this right here! Come!

Let's do it!

Please get here quickly, brother!

Biju is getting beaten up at the police station!

But I wasn't the one who started it.

Whatever it is, the situation in here has become chaotic now.

What have you done, sir?

If you were the GD, would you have let this happen?

If the public comes to know about this, I'll lose my job!

The CI said he'll charge a case! What's your problem?

You arrested that guy just based on Sunitha's oral complaint!

What else was I supposed to do? Quietly let him hit our officer?

Chacko, release him!

Sir!

Sir, he's drunk and we have beaten him.

If we release him without a medical checkup, we'll be in trouble.

What can I do? The SP asked me to release him!

He's saying that it's a caste vote issue or some damn thing like that!

Why did I have to quit my job at the school!

Hey! You are free to go.

What did Rameshettan say?

Let him come first. We'll decide after that.

-Hail CPDS! -Hail CPDS!

-Hail CPDS! -Hail CPDS!

-Hail CPDS! -Hail CPDS!

-Hail CPDS! -Hail CPDS!

-Hail CPDS! -Hail CPDS!

Okay.

Let me see if something can be done.

I'll try to figure something out.

Okay.

Okay, thanks.

I'll call you later. Bye.

They've got themselves admitted to a hospital.

I hope they don't gather people and start a police station siege.

He has joined just now.

But you've been in service for 20 years, right? Can't you show some maturity?

-Apologize to them and sort it out! -It wasn't a deliberate action, sir.

Our biggest problem is that we released him without a medical checkup.

That's true.

If we lose our jobs because of this, no one will help us.

I have talked to Mr. Mathew. It'll be taken care of, sir.

He is your relative, right?

Capitalize on that.

Let's go.

Vote for Betty Jose!

Yeah.

I'll be there after attending the program in Attingal.

We'll decide once I am back.

Yeah.

-Switch off your phone. -Yeah.

I already told you, right?

That's enough!

As far as I know,

this election is very crucial.

Ask your boys not to host a protest march or a police station siege for this.

But the boys have taken this issue very seriously.

So?

Well, in the current situation…

we should promise something good for our community just to pacify them.

That engineering college in Attachira…

we've been asking for it for so many years, sir.

If you could do something…

then I would think about it after the election.

Alright.

I trust you, sir.

And sir…

once the election is over,

please get those troublesome police officers suspended.

Bye, sir.

I am here at the hospital.

No, it's alright. I'll deal with it, sir.

I'll call you later. Bye.

Sir is here.

-What is it? -This is the video I shot.

Send it to me.

This shouldn't be leaked at any cost.

Once the police record your statements tomorrow, all of you leave from here.

-Got it? -Okay.

I just met the Chief Minister.

If we don't create any problem

until the election is over, we'll get the college and the land.

We don't need the college or any damn thing!

Hey!

-Keep quiet. -What?

Don't create a scene here!

When I was beaten like a dog at the police station, no one did anything!

I will get back at all of them!

The association won't be responsible for your drunk or stoned debauchery!

-He's just agitated-- -Got it?

-Let it go, man. -Let it go.

Hey, we'll go together to the wedding.

I'm not coming, sir.

Fine.

Bye. See you tomorrow.

Are you still thinking about that incident?

Cops who do their job honestly always end up getting in trouble.

Others are awarded the Good Service Entry.

I have talked to Mr. Mathew.

He will sort it out.

You don't need to worry.

But sir, I'm not invited.

What?

There's only one invitation for the entire police station.

You don't know who it is, right?

It's Mr. Babu.

He used to be very close to your dad.

He'll be very happy to see you.

Let's go have a couple of drinks. Come.

You don't need to drive today.

Come!

The story of an octopus

Slashed by the knife of envy

It turns like toddy

-It seems like a grand function. -Hey, you eight-legged…

Come, let's have food.

No, I have to call the travel agents.

Don't worry about the ticket. Come.

No, I have to call my friends before I leave.

Okay, come once you're done.

He's going to the Middle East tomorrow.

-Where in the Middle East? -Saudi Arabia.

By the way, I don't drive after drinking.

-He'll drive then. -His wife stole the sweet toddy

And the backwaters turned red

-Hey, you eight-legged drunk octopus -We're leaving. I've got the pilot duty.

Drop Sunitha off at the station when you leave.

-Okay, sir. -She's having food.

Hey!

Take your mother to the hospital and get back to work at night.

Thank you, sir.

This is Mr. R. K. Michael's son.

I used to visit your house when you were young.

Nice to meet you.

While climbing up the coconut palm

The knife glitters And his wife grins in his dreams

Come on! Have a drink!

He doesn't give two hoots about her

He chops her into pieces

Until the knife's sharpness wanes

-Oh, my dear octopus -Oh, my dear octopus

-Watch your step, you're drunk -Watch your step, you're drunk

Sunitha… we'll go together!

-Drink up! -Laugh all you want!

-Until you have an upset stomach -And your head spins

-Pour yourself… -A lot of toddies

-A jar full of toddy -My dearest

The toddy of moonshine

The knife glitters And his wife grins in his dreams

The way he chopped her into pieces

May I chop you into pieces?

-Crawling -Slipping and swaying

-Along the pavement -Before the idol

-Throw up -If you want to

-Drink up! -The sour buttermilk

The toddy of moonshine

Hey, you eight-legged drunk octopus

You, who stole the toddy of the moonshine

-Hey, do you know? -Hey, do you know?

Once he chopped her into pieces Using his knife

-His wife stole the sweet toddy -His wife stole the sweet toddy

And the backwaters turned red

The knife glitters And his wife grins in his dreams

Get me one more drink.

It was Mr. Babu's longtime wish to get his son married.

When he was in service, he used to talk only about that.

Today, his wish finally came true.

Sunitha…

you should also get married as soon as your house is built.

Don't delay it.

And you as well.

I'll get married after I get back from the Middle East.

What?

I'll get married only after I'm back from the Middle East.

I wasn't talking to you.

I meant you, Praveen.

Don't grow old like this.

-You heard me, right? -Yes.

Your mother will be really happy.

Even you should have a family.

You still have a lot of time, boy!

We'd have a grand wedding once you get back from there.

There's nothing like having our own family.

Hey! Stop near that ATM!

Withdraw Rs. 20,000 and keep it with you.

-There's no need, Uncle. -Come on!

You have to buy the ticket, right?

It's a gift from me! Take it!

The pin is 5858.

Go.

I couldn't refuse when he compelled me.

Yeah… I'll be there in half an hour.

Okay. I'll call you later. Bye.

When are you leaving?

I've got the visa.

If I pay the money tomorrow,

I can vote on Saturday and fly after that.

Yeah, go! There's no point in staying here anyway!

Hey!

Sir!

-He is alive. -Hey!

-Hey! -Hey!

-Hey! -Hey!

Sir, this is Jayan.

Which Jayan?

Biju, who caused a commotion at the station, it's his friend.

Praveen, let's go.

-This will get us in trouble! Come! -Sir, he's alive!

-Lift him, sir! -Come on!

Lift him!

Dude, it's Maniyan! Let's go!

We'll get in trouble!

Lift him!

Open it. Quickly.

Open it! Hey, come and help us!

He is throwing up.

Hey!

Praveen, start the car.

Sir.

Hold him.

Suresh, get the stretcher!

-Hold him. -Hey!

Come on.

Is it an accident case?

Yes.

-Sister, connect the monitor. -Yes, doctor.

It was our car.

When did this happen?

About half an hour back.

Have you boozed?

I have to inform the police. It's a medicolegal case.

We're the local police officers.

We've informed our station.

You can inform his relatives then.

The patient was brought dead.

What is this?

What happened? What is this, doctor?

Hey, Biju!

Come here quickly!

It's Jayan! Those idiots dumped him here!

Run quickly!

Catch them!

Open the door!

Sujith, go through the other side! Quickly!

Hello! Sir, it's me, Praveen!

-What is it? -We--

There is one problem.

Are you at the station?

We're coming there.

-Yes, I am at the station. -Okay.

-Get here quickly. -Okay, sir.

Is she asleep?

I'll be there in half an hour.

Sir, he was alive when we took him to the car.

I get that… but would anyone else believe you?

Moreover, you had consumed alcohol.

Sir, my nephew was driving.

He hadn't boozed.

Where is he then?

No one has seen him.

Even if we charge a case against him, people will say that we fabricated it.

Don't worry.

We'll figure something out.

Sir!

All three of them are here, sir.

None of them were driving, sir.

Sir.

-Hello? -Mr. Maniyan.

This is Joshy Mathew.

Leave from there immediately.

The Chief Minister…

What is it, sir?

Hello?

Mr. Maniyan, this is Joshy Mathew.

Leave from there immediately.

The CM has asked the superintendent to charge a case against you all.

DALIT YOUTH DIES IN A CAR ACCIDENT

THE CAR WAS DRIVEN BY DRUNK POLICE OFFICERS

Maniyan, do you have a cigarette?

-Don't you want to light it? -Yes.

-Sir! -Come here!

Sir, what are you doing?

Come on!

-Come! -Sir!

Come here quickly!

-Let go of me! -Don't do this, sir! Let go of him!

Close it.

-Start the car! -Sir, come here quickly!

Maniyan!

Hey!

Maniyan, stop!

-Sir! -What happened?

They have escaped, sir!

The number you're calling is either switched off or--

Who is it?

It's uncle, Mom.

Get me some water.

I'll make tea for you.

-Who is it? -It's me.

I was in this area for work.

Is your daughter's dance competition over?

It's tomorrow.

It's in Thrissur, right?

Yes.

Where is Rahul?

He'd gone out with you, right?

He came back after that, took his bag, and left.

What happened?

What is it?

Is there a problem?

What is it?

The number you're calling is either switched off or not reachable.

What happened, sir?

The number you're calling is either switched off or not reachable.

Please try again later.

Start the car!

The number you're calling is either switched off or…

The number you're calling is either switched off or--

Sir!

Where are we going, sir?

The number you're calling is either--

If we don't find Rahul, we'll get trapped, sir.

He's not at home and his phone is switched off! What should I do?

Even if we find him, what if he doesn't admit that he was driving?

Can't we tell the superintendent that he was driving?

Yeah, right! Go, tell him that!

You'll learn your lesson when you're remanded!

But sir, how can they book us without any evidence?

Just shut up!

We're in this mess because of you!

This is not the time to play the blame game, sir.

What's wrong with what I said? What do you even know?

What are you going to do then?

Nonsense!

I've been doing this for about 20 years now.

Let me tell you what's going to happen now!

An accused was harassed at the police station for a personal grudge

upon a policewoman's complaint!

All of this was filmed by a person whom we killed in a car accident.

Then we took him to the hospital to frame it as an accidental death.

Isn't this enough for them to book us for a homicide?

Sir, we are police officers. Why would we be held as the culprits?

Police, my foot!

The guy who died was a Dalit, like me.

The by-election is just around the corner.

This government can win only if they get those votes.

So, they will definitely declare us as the culprits.

Got it?

Please drop me off at home, sir.

We need to get away from here until the election is over.

And we should disprove the case framed against us at the High Court

with the evidence we have with us.

We'll only be acquitted if the CBI investigates this case.

I want to go home, sir.

Yeah, alright!

Drop her off at home!

What? Start the car!

Hey!

-Hey, stop! -Sir!

Sir!

Get in!

Get the car!

Quickly!

Hey! Everything's alright!

No! I am fine!

There has been a small problem!

I'll solve it and come home! Go to sleep, okay?

No!

Don't cry! You'll scare our child!

Hang up!

Three police officers, ASI Maniyan KP, WCPO Sunitha Krishnan,

and CPO Praveen Michael, who are the culprits in a murder case…

have escaped in a mobile unit vehicle from the Piravom Station.

It's a white Bolero. Its number is KL01AQ1233.

There's a special instruction from Tiger…

to take this vehicle and the culprits into custody immediately.

Note the names of the culprits once again.

ASI Maniyan KP, WCPO Sunitha Krishnan, and CPO Praveen Michael.

If you feel this message is not clear, contact Tiger.

Throw away your SIM cards!

I lost my phone at the hospital, sir.

From what we know so far, the culprits are police officers.

A murder case has been charged against them.

The government will always stand by the departed young man's family.

During this election, what's the government--

The Election Model Code of Conduct is in force,

so I can't say anything further.

We've got to know that the culprits escaped

with the help from the local police,

so the investigation has been handed over to the crime branch.

Ma'am, I was in the toilet when they escaped.

Only an aged ASI and a lady constable were present at the station then.

Look, they are police officers.

Stop waiting for them to switch on their phones

and try to locate the station mobile unit they took.

They must have left it somewhere.

As soon as you find the vehicle, do a tower dump of the nearest tower

and get me all the details. Got it?

Okay.

Ma'am, none of them were driving when the accident happened.

Then, why did you charge them with 302?

The superintendent asked me to do that.

Why are you useless people roaming around in this uniform?

-You are the reason why-- -Stop it!

You're going to see a bishop tomorrow, right?

-Yes. -You may leave now.

You can go on leave for six months.

Sir.

Sir, those three police officers escaped because

of the call ASI Maniyan received on his phone.

It was from Mr. Joshy Mathew.

He had called him from a migrant worker's phone.

Joshy Mathew?

He's the youth wing president of your party, sir.

-Why had he called him? -It could be personal or political.

We can find out only if we question him.

I will handle him.

No one else needs to know about this.

The media, to be more specific.

Also, show this smartness only while catching the culprits. Got it?

Sir.

Come on!

Hey!

-What are you doing here? -I'd stopped to pee, sir.

In the middle of the road?

What's in the vehicle?

I'm on my way to get it loaded, sir.

Get going!

Was he hiding anything, sir?

No, there were just empty sacks.

Come on, let's go.

Sir…

Yes, sir. We are checking all the vehicles.

Stop!

Pull over.

I have a friend in Udumalpet.

We cannot take that route.

There will be strict checking at all the checkpoints.

What happened?

It's the police.

Hey! Why did you stop here?

-Sorry? -What?

Turn it off!

-What's in the vehicle? -Nothing, sir. I'm going to get it loaded.

-Hey! -What?

Pull over… and show me the vehicle's documents!

Go!

Why did you stop there?

For no particular reason, sir.

-What's in the vehicle? -It's empty, sir.

-I've checked it. -It's empty.

Go!

You may go!

Get going!

Go!

Hey… go!

Pull over!

Proper checking is happening on all the routes, right?

Inform us immediately if you get any information.

Wait a second.

Ma'am, the service history details of those officers and the other details…

of their friends and relatives have been collected from the SP office.

Okay, that's great.

Ma'am, we've asked the cyber cell to monitor the numbers

of people who have frequently called them.

-What about the vehicle? -The local police are looking for it.

As soon as they get any information, they'll contact you.

Okay.

The last information we got about them

was that they were seen at Sunitha's house at 11:30 p.m. right?

What's the maximum distance they can cover in two and a half hours?

-About 150 kilometers, right? -Yes, ma'am.

Strict checking is taking place on

the Kottayam, Ernakulam, and Moovattupuzha routes. So, they won't take those routes.

But they might go to Idukki.

Checking is not that strict there at night.

Or they might just be here… right?

-Hello! -Yes?

Ma'am, we've found the vehicle.

When we did a nearby tower dump,

it showed that Praveen made a call from someone's phone here.

They left with Praveen's friend Hakkim.

-Hakkim's phone is switched off now. -Okay.

Get the details of the vehicle that was used to escape.

Check all the CCTV footage to find out about the route.

-Okay, ma'am. -Got it?

Yes.

Mom has to be taken to the hospital tomorrow.

-Make some arrangement-- -Hey!

-I'll get it done. -Get going!

Whom will you send?

-Either Sudhi or I will go. -Hey!

Just go!

Why were you stopping him?

The police must have identified him and his vehicle by now!

They will be here any moment!

Are you both here to attend a wedding?

Sir…

what's the plan now?

What plan? Do you have a plan?

Tell me!

I'd warned you not to take him to the hospital!

Now don't do anything stupid! Just do as I say!

-What stupidity are you talking about? -Sir!

-What do you-- -Sir!

-Don't fight, sir-- -Move!

We are in this mess because of you!

I got trapped in this while helping you!

What nonsense!

You hit him because you were pissed at him. Did I ask you to help me?

Of course, you'll say this!

-You are just like your father! -Sir!

If you curse my father, I won't consider your age, mind you!

What will you do?

-What will you do? -You idiot…

Hey! Sir, please don't fight!

-Move! -Sir!

What's your problem?

Hey! You imbecile!

Are you blind?

You had to jump in front of my vehicle?

Hey! You idiot!

Brother, three cups of tea, please.

I've just opened the shop. It will take five minutes.

-Is that okay? -Yeah.

Okay.

Brother, do you have a phone?

My calls are not going through.

Hello, sister. It's me, Sunitha.

Auntie!

Your daughter had called.

She is fine.

She's told me to tell you not to worry.

Don't be upset.

Whatever information you get, let me know.

Could you track the number?

Okay.

Upon arriving in Munnar, I want to meet the van's driver

and the person from whose phone they made the call. Got it?

Call Munnar Station and ask them to be alert.

Okay?

12 mobile.

12 mobile control.

12 mobile.

-Hello? -Is this mobile located in Munnar?

Okay, sir.

12 mobile control.

12 mobile answering.

There's urgent instruction.

Three police officers who are the culprits in a 302 case have arrived in Munnar.

Do a thorough check of the town and surroundings.

The message is clear.

Sir!

Wake up, sir!

Sir, we've got a message that the police officers

who escaped from Piravom have arrived in Munnar.

We shall go there and check.

-Or else we'll be in trouble. -Okay.

The sea of life

Is searching for another shore

Destiny is far away

Like a funeral pyre

-Shadows are eating up all the light -Shadows are eating up all the light

-Termites are covering the entire body -Termites are covering the entire body

Those times of the past

This journey

Is turning dark

The hunter

Is right behind us

Searching for the prey

Hey, what is this?

Why didn't you wash the vessels?

I am paying you! What more do you want?

Oh, really?

Two cups of tea.

Didn't you wear it today?

This one!

Here. Go and wear it.

Chenduvarai, anyone?

-The vehicle is here. Let's go. -Coming!

Come quickly!

-Wait, I am coming! -Hurry up!

Hey, old man! Come!

-Coming! -Come quickly!

-Hey! -Let's go!

The State School Youth Festival had a colorful start in Thrissur.

The festival began with a grand procession--

Violence erupted during the protest against

Jayan's murder in Ernakulam district.

There's no information so far about the three

accused police officers, Maniyan KP, Praveen Michael, and Sunitha.

Those who helped them escape--

-How much for one cup of tea? -Ten rupees.

-How much for two? -Twenty rupees.

Give us water!

Come on!

Come!

Come on!

Who are you?

Sir!

It's you!

How are you?

Who are they?

Hey, these are our people! Shut up!

I need help, Moorthy.

What happened, sir? Tell me! I'll do anything for you!

This is the SP's daughter.

He has eloped with her.

I had to intervene in this issue.

Police are looking for us. We need to stay here for two days.

Two days? You can stay here for two years!

But we don't have many facilities here. There are sacks lying inside.

That's the only problem.

Today is the last day of the festival.

So, we can get them married tomorrow.

That's not necessary. Police are looking for us 'cause she's the SP's daughter.

We just need to stay here for two days.

As you wish.

Brother.

What's all that commotion about?

That's just… our lifelong crisis. An argument over water distribution.

Police might come here.

Police? What can they do?

If we go to the police or the court…

they would ask for the documents, witnesses, and evidence.

All we need is some water. We'll figure it out somehow.

Hello?

Hello!

Youth wings and associations of the opposition party

are leading large-scale protests all over Kerala.

Twelve hours have passed since Jayan left us.

The state has never witnessed the kinds of incidents that are happening now.

The accused police officers have managed to escape from the police station.

The Kerala Police haven't succeeded in finding

the culprits even after several hours.

Questioning the police is not going to work here.

Because the accused are also the police officers.

It was the police who helped the culprits to escape as well.

I have only one thing to say. As long as this government is ruling,

I have no hope that the backward classes or the Dalit people of Kerala

would ever get any kind of justice.

This incident is very inhuman!

Our society will definitely respond to this through the ballot papers.

Mr. George…

the upcoming by-election is extremely crucial.

Are you sure your party will be able to win this by-election?

Aparna, you need to understand one thing.

The government which is ruling now is committed to its people.

Just because some criminal police officers did some atrocity,

they are trying to play caste politics to gain political mileage!

That won't work here!

This is Kerala!

Remember this!

Our government registered this murder case…

and transferred it to the crime branch within 24 hours of the incident.

So, I am 100% sure that we will win this by-election, and along with that,

all the culprits in this case will be taken into custody before the election!

Mark my words!

Mr. George, one night has passed since this incident happened.

And you are still repeating whatever the Chief Minister said last night!

Within these 12 hours,

what action has the police taken on this issue?

Excuse me, sir.

Hello.

-Sir! -Yes?

Sir, we've arrested the driver who helped the culprits escape

and the Tamilian who gave them his phone.

-Good. I am with the CM. -And--

Let me put you on speakerphone. Sir, we have an update.

With your permission.

Sir, we've arrested the driver who helped the culprits escape

and the Tamilian who gave them his phone.

We've got visuals of them traveling on a tractor around the Top Station area.

They've gone to Vattavada, sir.

About 10-15 years back,

ASI Maniyan had gone there on duty.

So, he has contacts there.

We are heading to Vattavada now, sir.

I must know whatever action you are going to take.

Sir.

Hold a press conference…

and declare that we've arrested those, who helped the culprits escape.

Yes, sir.

Raid the culprits' relatives' and friends' houses and arrest them

in the presence of the media.

-They shouldn't question us hereafter. -Yes, sir!

Ask the makeup man to come on stage.

Okay.

We're here at the club, sir.

Sir!

Sir!

Sir!

We'll do that, sir.

Sit there.

No, sir. There aren't any other law and order problems.

Hello!

I am near the Mariyamman Temple.

Where are you?

Okay! I can see you!

Ma'am, I am Jayaprasad.

Any information?

We've got the information that

three new people have been spotted in Kottakamboor.

-Kottakamboor? -Yes, ma'am.

This is our border, ma'am. There is a forest beyond this point.

There were many cannabis farms over there earlier.

About 500 Tamil families stay here. All are farmers.

Does that route lead to any other place?

If we go by car, it'll take us back to Munnar.

The other one is the forest route that leads either to Kodaikanal or Palani.

Only those who are familiar with that route can go that way.

-Okay. When will we get there? -It will definitely be past 5:00 p.m.

But it wouldn't be possible tonight because of the fog.

We have a couple of informers.

We haven't been able to communicate with them because of the network issue.

Okay.

It's hot.

Arrange the dog squad…

and get the clothes of the accused so that the dogs could trace their location.

Mr. Praveen!

Mr. Maniyan and I have had several escapades here.

Fifteen years ago…

there had been a cannabis raid in this forest.

I was also with them.

You can't imagine what all we had done!

It's funny to think about it even now.

Sir.

Have some coffee.

Here you go, sir.

Brother.

Can we reach Tamil Nadu if we take the forest route?

If you take the forest route, you'll reach Palani after two days.

But the problem is that there would be wild elephants and tigers on the way.

You'll have to be careful.

Dear… what happened?

Are you not feeling well?

I have a headache.

Apply this to your forehead. You'll feel better in no time.

Sir, stop drinking alcohol. Have some coffee instead.

Today is the last day of the festival. I'll be back.

Brother… your mundu is torn.

A dog must have torn it.

It doesn't look like a dog's doing.

That's the police in you talking!

What else can we expect from you!

Keep this.

-Mr. Mani, I'll be back soon. -Okay.

We need details of all the homestays here.

Check whether Maniyan has contacted anyone here.

-Okay? -Ma'am!

There are about three homestays here.

Only North Indians and foreigners are staying there.

There are a couple more in the interior areas.

We'll contact them as soon as possible.

How many days does this festival go on for?

Today is the last day, ma'am.

-Hello? -Sir, we have arrived in Kottakamboor.

We are collecting information about them from the locals.

Now we are going to check the homestays, sir.

The primary information is that there are no Malayalis there.

One pack of cigarettes, please.

And one pack of sanitary pads.

-How much? -That'd be Rs. 130.

Sir… wear a jacket.

It's really cold.

Here.

If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask.

Okay?

Groundnuts taste the same no matter where they are from.

I'm not lying.

They're nice.

Sir!

Come, let's eat something.

Do you hear that song?

It's nice, right?

My father wanted me to be a singer.

My daughter was born when I was in this forest back then.

For the cannabis hunt.

I saw my daughter's face 15 days after she was born.

I had promised her…

that I'd go with her to her competition. It's tomorrow.

And even now, I am here.

I'm starving.

Porridge?

Sir.

Didn't you add salt to this, Sunitha?

I did, sir.

It doesn't have salt.

It doesn't have salt at all.

Why are you complaining, sir?

It's not like we're really hungry!

If we suddenly have to escape from here, we might not get to eat anything!

We're also worried!

What are you worried about?

Ever since my daughter was born, I haven't been able to go with her anywhere…

as her father, even once.

I have a headache!

I don't even have my medicine.

It's them.

Hey!

Move, dear!

Apart from Kottakamboor, what other villages are nearby?

If we go through the forest,

then there are small villages like Kilavarai, Kadavari, etc.

As they're under the forest department's observation, they can't stay there.

If they go northwest from here,

then they can go to Kanthalloor via Pazhathottam-Chenduvarai.

From there, they might go to Tamil Nadu by car.

They are here.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken this route from Munnar.

Someone is helping them here.

The farmers are bursting crackers to chase the pigs away, ma'am.

Shobi, come here!

Hey, Moorthy!

Is it our man at the court?

-Why? What happened? -He's lying there drunk.

Shobi, come on!

Maari, put this in the temple donation box.

They are going to Palani.

Shobi!

Shobi, come on!

Mr. Mani!

You started drinking early today!

Sir, this used to be a court long back.

It's a perfect place to booze.

Sir!

Can you please stop boozing?

We're trying our best to escape from this problem.

And you're boozing all the time!

Going to jail is better than this!

If you keep doing this, we won't be able to escape from here!

DALIT YOUNGSTER'S DEATH: STUDENT'S YOUTH FESTIVAL DREAM SHATTERED

Brother…

can we go to Palani with the people who went this way earlier?

You can't go now, sir.

They would have entered the forest by now.

You won't be able to take Mr. Maniyan along in his present condition.

Another group is going there tomorrow.

If you want to go with them, you'll need to pack some food for the journey.

-He had come here yesterday. -At what time?

-Just before I closed the shop. -What did he buy?

Cigarettes and sanitary pads.

What's the update?

Sir, they're here. They'd been to one of the shops last night.

Don't you have the dog squad with you?

Sir, the street is covered with turmeric because of the festival.

Dogs are unable to trace them.

Then, find them with the help of the military!

This is not the time for a one-man show!

Sir, it's not practical.

You don't know the geography of this place.

This village is surrounded by a forest.

Many people here are into the cannabis business.

If we send the force, the culprits will find out immediately.

They might escape into the forest.

-It's risky, sir. -What risk?

Do you have any bloody idea of the situation I'm in?

And the pressure from the CM to solve the case?

You haven't found the culprits even after two days! Now call off your search!

I'm sending the force.

Where is today's newspaper?

Moorthy took it with him.

Who is Moorthy?

He does farming on the other side of that hill, ma'am.

Didn't you say that there are no Malayalis here?

Yeah. There are no Malayalis here.

Whose phone has a signal?

Ma'am.

Sir, Anuradha here!

Sir, please give me two more hours!

Please, sir!

Sir, we're almost there!

Please, sir!

Thank you, sir.

Sir, the situation is quite critical.

All the survey reports are against us.

Sir, this incident has strongly influenced the neutral votes.

As per the intelligence report I received,

Dalit associations have called for a press conference at seven o'clock tonight.

If we don't arrest the culprits by then,

they'd boycott tomorrow's election.

Sir, they have about 50,000 votes.

We've been getting about 90% of those votes for ages.

So, it's crucial.

Sir, Anuradha had called now.

They've got information on the culprits now.

We're very close to nabbing them, sir.

I need a solution before seven o'clock.

Come here only when you have that.

Ma'am, it's the DGP.

Hello!

We've located the culprits, sir.

Arrest them!

They are not in a position where we can arrest them.

What is stopping you?

They are at a place from where they can easily spot us, no matter where we go.

The forest is right behind them.

They have a dog with them.

Moreover, one of those three people is not with them now.

We have to wait, sir.

We cannot wait in such a crucial situation!

I need action immediately!

Sir, their local supporter is with us.

We've arrested him.

They plan to leave for Palani tomorrow morning.

No… I don't want to hear any excuse! Enough!

Sir, we can try going in disguise.

But if something happens, you have to take the risk.

Hello!

Hello!

Sir, we've located the culprits.

-They are under our surveillance. -Then, why don't you arrest them?

Sir, we need some additional force there. That's what they are waiting for.

Sir, it's risky to delay it until then.

It'll be late by the time they're arrested and brought here.

There won't even be a news article in tomorrow's papers.

That will affect the polling in the morning.

Sir, they will decide to boycott the election at 7:00 p.m.

We must find a solution before that.

Sir, we can try going in disguise.

But they are police officers, so that's risky.

They also have a dog with them.

If they feel the presence of the police, they will enter the forest.

Once they enter the forest,

we won't be able to trace them or meet our deadline.

What if they escape before the evening?

Sir, the man who helped them is in our custody.

They plan to leave for Palani tomorrow morning.

Are you 100% sure you'll be able to arrest them today?

Yes, sir.

The three police officers who are the culprits in the Jayan Murder Case

have been arrested. They've been brought to the Aluva Police Club.

You can see those visuals now.

The three of them will be thoroughly interrogated here.

Following which, they might be presented in court tomorrow.

This Jayan Murder Case

was a strong weapon that the opposition had found against the ruling government

just before the election.

As the election is scheduled to happen tomorrow,

this arrest will be a huge relief for the government.

No doubt about that!

The third one is here.

Forget it, man.

I will be okay.

I never expected that they'll go to my house…

and do this atrocity.

I've been running around as their hunting dog for about 20 years!

I never committed any atrocity for my own sake.

Anyway, I will be okay.

You should also forget about it.

We should find some other job when we go back home.

This is not meant for people like us.

Where are you going now, sir?

To crap.

Move!

Will we be acquitted if we go to court, sir?

Mr. Maniyan will figure something out.

I will quit this job once I get back.

Sir!

Sir!

Mr. Maniyan!

Sir!

Sir!

Sir!

Sir!

Sir!

Hello.

Hello!

Sir…

we've got the culprits.

But one of them hung himself, sir.

What?

Two of them moved unexpectedly. By the time…

we chased them and got here,

the third one was hanging dead at an old building.

The remaining two are in our custody, sir.

Sir?

Hello?

Hello!

Hello!

Sir…

one of the culprits hung himself to death in Munnar.

I will tell the media that the police gave me distorted information.

Then, you'll have to answer them.

Call Rajan.

Hello! Who all are there with you?

Only my team, sir.

Listen!

Because you'd promised that you'd arrest them today, we made a dummy arrest here.

The CM had asked me to do it, but he's washed his hands of it now.

Look!

Both the culprits and the corpse should reach the police club at the earliest.

If the case gets complicated, it'll be transferred to another agency!

You'll be held responsible for the death!

What the fuck!

Shut up, you stupid!

I won't take the responsibility!

I know what to do!

Fuck you!

Pull it down slowly.

Hold the leg carefully.

I'll hold it from behind.

-Hey! -Find something to cover it.

What the hell is happening?

Who asked you to untie the body before the inquest procedures?

Ma'am, what was our fault?

-We weren't even-- -Hey!

If you blabber over here, I'll kill both of you!

Take the body!

Ma'am, please come.

The order is to take the body to the club, come what may. I will do it.

Will it be the end of this?

No.

What can you do, ma'am?

You might say all this to the media or the court.

Earlier, an IPS officer spoke against the state on humanitarian grounds.

He has been in jail for two years now. He didn't even get out on bail.

I've been in service longer than you, ma'am.

Our fate is not far from that dead man's.

Take the body.

Catch him!

This is my dying declaration.

That car was mine…

but I wasn't driving it that day.

My sister's son was driving it.

Those innocents were just traveling with me.

My daughter shouldn't live as a murderer's daughter.

The court should consider this as my dying declaration

and investigate this case truthfully.

Those innocents should be acquitted.

I'm ending this.

-Is there another copy of this? -No, sir.

Sir…

it was Rahul who drove the car when the accident happened.

We realized it was Jayan only when we carried him to the car.

Just before the accident happened,

Rahul had withdrawn money from an ATM.

If you check its security camera, you'd spot Rahul in it.

Or if you locate his and our mobile towers,

you'd find out that we were together, sir.

Praveen…

from what you're saying, we can prove that there was someone else in the car.

But the fingerprints on the car's steering wheel are yours.

This argument won't stand in court.

Sir…

our department will be able to prove the truth, right?

Praveen…

you know that the department cannot do anything against the government, right?

Especially in this situation,

because the media has created such a negative image of your case.

As the election is happening today,

we cannot expect anything else from the government.

Just like you, the DGP and the entire police system are locked in this case.

We must solve this at any cost.

Give it to me.

This is your statement which says that…

Maniyan committed suicide after he got here. Both of you will have to sign it.

We can prepare Maniyan's suicide note with the help of a handwriting expert.

Maniyan will be declared guilty.

All of us will be safe.

We don't have any other option now.

I won't do it, sir.

Even if I'm hung to death for this, I won't do it.

Just before he died…

he was talking about his daughter.

He lived his whole life for his daughter.

That girl shouldn't have to live as a murderer's daughter.

I can't do this.

This has Maniyan's declaration video, right?

The outside world is never going to see this.

And you said you can prove scientifically that Rahul was driving, right?

Give that to me.

My name is Rahul.

Sir, I was driving the car that day.

All of them had consumed alcohol.

When Mr. Praveen saw Jayan, he started the steering car.

When the accident took place, I got scared and ran away.

If this goes to court,

you'll get nothing short of life imprisonment.

Both of you are young.

Give it another thought.

We have time until we have to go to court.

-Sir, the forensic team is here. -Okay. Call them.

This is a huge relief for the state government…

as they were able to catch all three culprits of the Jayan Murder Case.

They were brought last night to the Aluva Police Club, which you can see here.

One of those police officers committed suicide earlier this morning.

The inquest procedures of the dead policeman are happening right now.

The remaining two police officers will be taken to court shortly.

The police have arranged tight security here prior to that.

Because chances are that large-scale protests might happen.

Anyway, the crowd has gathered here already.

Like I mentioned earlier, this is a huge relief for the state government

because a very crucial election is happening today.

So, capturing these three culprits is quite beneficial for the government.

That's what we can say right now.

-Long live the revolution! -Long live the revolution!

-Long live the revolution! -Long live the revolution!

-Go to hell, police! -Go to hell, police!

-We will teach you a lesson! -We will teach you a lesson!

-Long live the revolution! -Long live the revolution!

-Long live the revolution! -Long live the revolution!

-Long live the revolution! -Long live the revolution!

-Long live the revolution! -Long live the revolution!

VOTE FOR THE CDF CANDIDATE, G. RAVEENDRANATH

Do you have trouble seeing clearly, ma'am?

-She is blind. -I can't see anything, son.

Okay. You may accompany her.

Thank you.

Number 72, Vinod KT.
