- I hate looking at both of us. - What did you tell them?

See, we have information that you told Basher

you would come after him, that this wasn't the end,

that he wouldn't escape.

You told them I threatened Basher--

they had it down word for word.

It was a oncer--

you know there can't be any repeats.

[gun shot]

Remember what you did on [inaudible] in '86?

I was overseas in the '80s.

No, I think you were here.

Prove it.

This is my fault. I should have given the man the money.

It is the fault of the animal who did this.

He must be made to suffer in this world, and the next.

[chanting]

[sirens]

[music playing]

[ticking]

Last stop for the long haul.

[gun shot]

[gasps]

[intense music]

[traffic sounds]

Big night in the [inaudible] headline.

What do we got?

Our contestant here is Dusan Kuric, 38,

rough time of death between 7:00 and 10:00 last night.

Blood stains on the floor indicate that our Dusan

died where he sat.

JUNG LIM: First glance, a deep stab wound to the heart, then

probably two to the abdomen.

Then I'd say some more wounds for the--

Did we catch a car's [inaudible]??

Not a cent, not a bumble bar.

POLICE WOMAN: And no one saw or heard anything.

How about security?

Yep, they called in at 8:00 PM to check

why the alarm wasn't engaged.

Kuric said he was working back, and that he'd

activate it when he left.

Whoever said a desk job wasn't dangerous, eh?

Nah, that's the trouble working nights.

You run into all kinds of unsavory customers.

Lim, get the body snatchers.

You're on PM with the D's.

This time, when the pathologist opens up, will you,

listen carefully-- write everything down,

including his lunch order.

The rest of us, just canvas the vicinity.

We should interview the receptionist.

Vesna Popov-- she saw the body first.

Start without me.

Ray, what do you know about a crook called John Hunt?

What's that, mate?

I said, what do you know about a crook called John Hunt?

Not much, mate.

Don't know a John Hunt.

Yes, you do.

You met him in a caravan park last night.

- You been following me. - No, I was following Hunt.

What were you doing with him?

That's none of your business.

Oh, anything to do with John Hunt is my business.

Not if it's got something to do with another job,

and if you've buggered that job up, mate,

you'll be kicked out of this [inaudible] so fast,

you won't have time to scratch you--

Oh, I think he shot my father.

He's at least connected.

That's 20 years ago.

21.

Shooter was young-- maybe 18, 20 at the time.

What do you got?

Oh, it's him.

I know it.

I can't help you.

Well, who's in charge of this investigation?

[interposing voices]

Christ, what part of, I can't help you--

If it was your father shot, you'd just walk away,

would you?

No, I didn't think so.

Listen, man, I am sorry.

I mean, but Hunt can't be the [inaudible]..

20 years ago, he wasn't in the country.

He was in Hong Kong.

We'll see.

Vesna, this is Detective Malik.

Hi.

So can you tell me when was the last time

you saw Dusan Kuric alive?

Well, last night, at about 6:00.

He was working back and said he'd lock up.

SONNY KOA: So that was the last time you spoke to him, yeah?

Mm.

SONNY KOA: Vesna, can you tell me

if Dusan had a problem that might have

led to a violent confrontation? - I couldn't say.

So you wouldn't know anything about this at all, yeah?

He was very private.

Explain that to me, will you-- what's private mean?

I don't know, not public.

Well, most car salesmen have to be friendly, don't they?

I don't know--

Was he flirtatious?

Was your boss like that, flirtatious?

Not really.

How long did you work for him?

About two years.

And how would you describe your relationship with him?

I wouldn't.

We weren't in a relation.

Nah, nah, nah, but you got on all right, yeah?

Yeah, he's all right.

Did you socialize with him?

Not outside of work.

What about his family, then?

Well, he's married with two kids.

Any girlfriends?

Is this guy deaf or something? I don't know?

What about boyfriends?

Hello, he's Serbian.

Look, Vesna, we need to cover all options.

Well, if you think he's a poof, you're way off.

OK, so you left here last night

and didn't come back until this morning.

Can anyone back up your alibi?

I've got like 100 alibis.

I was in the oven all night.

All right, thanks very much.

Thank you very much.

Nightclub called the Oven-- sounds like a sausage factory.

Well, I'd say it lets her off the hook.

I need you to do me a favor.

Run a movement's check on a guy called John Hunter in the '80s.

Particularly '86.

You sure you want to go this way?

There's an Arab saying.

[speaking arabic]

And?

A known mistake is better than an unknown truth.

I'll get in there.

All right.

I want to reopen my father's case.

I'm on to a strong lead.

What do you got?

John Hunt.

He shot a [inaudible] or scumbag called

Bizoni-- that's the same weapon used to shoot my father.

Hunt's the same height, similar voice,

with a history of violence. I think it's worth checking out.

You know you can't do that.

There was never a strong suspect before now,

[inaudible]. - Malik, this is personal.

ZANE MALIK: It's still a police matter.

Yeah, but as far as your involvement is concerned,

it's a conflict of interest.

I'll refer it to one of the Lakemba detectives.

- Not good enough. - Excuse me?

Those dudes are overworked and under-motivated-- they've had

long enough to solve this case.

Well, this file may be exactly what

they need to activate his case.

You must work within the system, Malik.

Every day, I watch this system fail my father for 20 years.

You expect me to drop it now?

Look, I'm sorry for you, and I'm sorry for your father.

But this has got to be done right.

Otherwise I can't help you.

Records show that John Hunt from September 1986

to Christmas 1990.

That's bullshit.

No-- that can't be right.

SONNY KOA: I had it checked twice.

Right, the murder weapon, which has yet to be found,

is a knife about 6 inches.

What's unusual here is that he doesn't look like he's

put up any resistance.

There's now wounds on his arms or his hands--

defensive wounds.

WOMAN: So why didn't he struggle, then?

He may have totally trust the person.

Or, if it were a stranger, he may have taken by surprise.

Or he was incapacitated, maybe stupified with a drug.

Yeah, we'll have to wait for the pathology report

for that one.

Well, we could ass around with conjectural all day,

or we could actually open up some lines of investigation.

Callus, Lim, stick to his customers and his business.

Yep, I'm onto the diary, phone records, and appointment books.

Good, start on all potential clients

from the last fortnight.

Yeah, we'll I'll do the financial check,

see if he owed any money.

Now, you two talk to the wife.

Turns out Mrs. Kuric didn't bother reporting

her husband missing last night.

Maybe there were extracurricular activities

that kept him out late.

IVANA KURIC: Dusan was a good man.

His family, the community.

Did he come in last night at all?

No.

No, you didn't call the police, did you?

The police called me this morning.

I know, but why didn't you report your husband

missing last night?

He often worked late.

Does your wife know you every minute

of a day and night, detective?

Mrs. Kuric, I think your husband

may have known his killer.

A friend?

Yeah, or a lover.

How would you describe the state of your marriage?

- You think I killed him? - No, we're not saying that.

We know you have an alibi.

What I'm asking is, do you think your husband

was seeing another woman?

Dusan was a hard worker, a good provider.

A wife could not ask for more.

And he called yesterday, and he told me about his appointment

with Franko.

Franko?

Franko Vukovic?

He's a manager of the Cumberfield soccer club.

A good friend, and an honorable Christian Serb.

SONNY KOA: I really admire your commitment,

coming to work the day after your best buddy died--

especially when you're the last one to see him alive.

Dusan and me were like brothers.

What did you talk about last night?

The Cobras.

Cumberfield Auto is the sponsor, the club is struggling,

I thought he could dig a bit deeper.

I guess the fines from last week's riot wouldn't help.

That was with another Balkan club, wasn't it?

I knew, I knew you would bring that up.

Don't ask me their bullshit-- that's a [inaudible]..

Still, there's a history of violence, isn't there?

On and off the field.

Right?

You know, the supporters are hard core.

Except, your supporters did the drive-by

shooting of your club, and then they

[inaudible] on your team's car.

Just as well your sponsor's a car guy, eh?

You know, the conflict in Yugoslavia

wasn't that long ago.

It's not surprising to see some people get a bit carried away,

you know?

There's not just Serbians in this club.

There's also, you know, Greeks, Macedonians, Russians.

Do you have any Croats?

Any Bosnians?

Oh, come on--

this is a football club, not the UN.

So what about Dusan and women?

I don't know of any who want him dead.

No, but he had women, all right, he liked them.

- Of course. - Any in particular?

Like his secretary?

If she was up for it.

Do you think they were having an affair?

I wouldn't go that far.

How far would you go?

Dusan got chicks on the side.

Who doesn't?

Except for you people.

You get the wives.

Exactly, how active was he between the sheets?

Let me put it this way--

he sold lots of small cars over the years.

Well, Dusan Kuric's been a busy lad.

According to his missus, he was husband of the year.

But according to his mates, he enjoyed taking female clients

for a test drive.

Mm, nice-- I bet he called that a free service.

I call that a dirty secret.

Do you have any dirty secrets?

None that you'd want to know about.

Meet me for tea tonight?

I want to go to bed early.

That suits me-- we can get take away.

- I can't. - Why not?

And please, don't hand me that bullshit line

about not being able to mix business and pleasure.

Well, it is a factor.

Yeah, like me, being investigated

by internal affairs is a factor.

The end of the day, I'm going to be cleared.

Patricia, we could be good together.

You can't deny that.

You give me a call if you decide to come out of hiding.

Going out again?

Yeah.

Is there someone else?

Don't be ridiculous.

I need to know what's going on.

Does it have anything to do with the man

who gave Yasmin a [inaudible]?

If you think you're protecting us by keeping us in the dark,

you're wrong.

Yasmin went to bed last night, and she wouldn't

go to school this morning.

We don't feel safe anymore.

I think I found the man who shot Baba.

Are you sure it's him?

I need more evidence to be certain.

Well, why can't someone else arrest him?

It's not that simple.

It's something I have to do on my home.

Is it?

Because parenting isn't something

I want to do on my own.

What if something happens to you?

Your children will be fatherless-- is

that what you want?

Amina, you never knew Rahman before he was shot.

You can't understand what we've lost.

Which is exactly why I don't want him to go.

How will you feel if you lose your son, as well?

Zane is a very experienced policeman.

He will do what he has to do, but you

will not take foolish risks.

[suspenseful music]

[car starting]

Yeah, already here.

Yeah.

Well how long?

Come on.

Yeah, right.

Hurry up.

Hands on with half a kilo, that'll

put you away for 10 to 15.

Pixan and Pax.

Where's your mates?

Talkin' to the staff.

Look, I can't go to jail.

Might we work something out, mate?

You tell me what I want to hear,

and I'll forget I saw you.

Lakemba?

Yeah.

Well, 1986, I was pretty well a kid.

Doing stupid things.

Don't piss me around or you're coming with me, all right?

[grunting]

Oh, no you--

[yelling]

[panting]

Papa, what's wrong?

Oh, nothing-- nothing, sweet.

I just-- nothing, I just bumped my head.

Why aren't you asleep?

I've been waiting up.

I was afraid you weren't going to come home.

That yo might die.

Well, don't be frightened, shushu.

But, it's true, isn't it, Baba?

You might die.

Well, we all got to die someday.

So if I come home, you got to trust it was meant to be.

It means you've gone to heaven?

[speaking arabic] I hope so.

But I'll still miss you, Baba.

Callas has dug up some dirt on our victim.

Dusan Kuric's appointment diary shows he had a visit

from anti-discrimination.

There's a sexual harassment complaint made against him.

Made by who?

Vesna Popov.

You withdrew your complaint-- how come?

Well, sometimes complaining about stuff

isn't the best way to deal with it.

Sometimes you just want to let things slide, yeah?

Yeah, look-- we always got along pretty well.

And then one day, one thing led to another--

So you were having an affair.

No way.

But we had sex three times.

He was really rough.

And the last time when he was drunk, it was a bit nasty.

In what way?

Well, I said no.

Didn't feel right.

He got angry, pushy.

Said that he would sack me or worse

if I didn't do what he wanted.

What did he mean by that, or worse?

I was afraid to ask.

Is that when you made the complaint?

Yeah.

I didn't know what else to do.

I'm paid to be a receptionist, not a sex slave.

So, why did you drop the complaint?

He said that he was sorry, and that it

would never happen again.

And that was enough?

That and a bonus.

It was pretty traumatic.

I deserved it-- the bonus, that is.

So where did you meet Dusan?

Here.

I was working back, topping up his personal letters,

and he got romantic under my desk.

What kind of personal letters?

Just letters to some old army mates in Serbia, organizing

for cars to be sent over.

Serbian cars are crap.

Are those letters still here?

Yeah, I guess.

So, which army was he involved with?

The Bosnian Serb Army, of course.

So he never wanted to talk about it.

I think he was a bit, dunno, what's the word?

Damaged?

I'll drop you back, yeah.

- I'm coming with you. - No, you're not.

I can't involve you in this shit.

I don't need the trouble, Sonny.

Look, I [inaudible] saying for you, trust in Allah,

but tie your camel up.

Look, you'd do it for me.

Just drive, eh?

All right, show me where to go.

I got a tracker on Hunt's car.

That's the girl he met last night.

Where you going?

Follow him in.

Hunt doesn't know me, and you need to know where he's going.

You can't do it any other way.

But don't just go in cold.

Oh, well, they're advertising packages to Fiji,

and I've always wanted to go.

Especially when they're including meals.

Just relax.

Well, take--

Ask for a romantic getaway, and you

get a three-week cruise for you and 10 of your closest mates.

Much easier to do it Hunt's way-- throw a wad of cash

in the title, say you want to go to Peru the day after tomorrow.

According to Vesna, Kuric served in the Balkan war.

Confirming that will be tricky.

The Serb militia didn't always do things officially.

Well, start with immigration records--

that will tell you when he went and how long he stayed.

We'll go straight to the top-- the war

crimes tribunal in the Hague.

See if he's on their list.

You think some old army buddy cross caught up with him?

Well, he might have been a deserter.

No, the militia were hardcore.

If he deserted, I reckon he'd be killed over there.

And that kind of crime doesn't look like the work of a soldier

to me. - Well, I'd still like a chit.

What about those letters?

You had a look at them?

Listen, do you want to get Petrovic from Ford just

to confirm if they are bad cars?

I mean, there's $500 of interpretive--

Petrovic is a police officer, not an interpreter.

That's not her job.

Neither is telling me how to run my investigation?

HELLEN CALLAS: It's OK, she owed me a favor.

I'm seeing her tonight.

We play indoor cricket together.

Callas, you've finally come out of the closet.

You're a cricket fan.

Interesting toxicology results in the path report--

Dusan Kuric was sedated before being stabbed.

But it's not your typical date rape like rohypnol.

It's morphine-- usually obtained from medical sources.

Corrects appointment book, shows

a doctor and hospital cleaners raising potential buyers.

You think he sold someone a lemon?

So they drugged him and took it out on his nuts?

I've threatened worse waiting for roadside service to arrive,

Koa.

Were you happy with your purchase, Dr. Black?

The Legend is very comfy.

It's got heated leather seats.

Dr. Black, do you know what you were doing two nights ago?

Actually, I was tied up.

Working late?

I mean literally, at the B&D club.

Bondage and discipline?

I'm sure they have it where you're from.

Carlingford? Don't think so.

Do you have access to morphine?

Yes, but it's strictly monitored.

So you don't use it in your recreational activities, then?

Well, that would be illegal.

And apart from that, it would defeat the purpose.

I'm interested in exploring my pain threshold.

How much can I endure before I crack?

You should think about joining the police service.

I was looking for a safe second-hand car,

but there was nothing suitable.

I'm trying to pick your accent, Mrs. Tadic.

Where are you originally from?

Bosnia-Herzegovina.

Is that how you met Mr. Kuric, then?

Through the Serbian community?

Uh-huh, Bosnian Muslim.

I don't think I would be welcome.

I guess you'd be even less likely to buy from him

once you realized he was Serb.

For myself, I try to take people at face value.

You see, I married a Serbian man.

Where were you two nights ago?

I'm on afternoon shift all week.

We're going to have to check the roster

with your supervisor.

Do you know--

Her name is Miss Bray.

OK, thank you.

[phone ringing]

There's no way Hunt was in Hong Kong back then.

He's got to have had another name.

SONNY KOA: This [inaudible] and breakers.

You ever heard a bloke called Deakin?

No.

My mate said if I was into weapons,

he would have come up on Deakin's radar.

[glasses rattling]

Hey, Gun.

I called last drinks 10 minutes ago.

I'm looking for Mick Deakin.

I must be losing me touch.

I always thought I could pick a bloke in the job.

- That's you, is it? - Yeah.

Yeah.

You got five minutes?

RAY CROWLEY: Yeah, I got a few lines of inquiry going,

no firm suspects.

We're just waiting on some intel from overseas.

It's a waiting game, [inaudible]..

You know how I love waiting.

So what's it going to be?

Any use of a day pass, commit to dinner with me?

I can't have dinner with you, Ray, ever.

Um, I'm sorry, it--

I-- I just don't have the room for a relationship.

I mean, it's-- it's nothing personal.

In another life, I would seriously consider it.

[chuckles] That's OK--

you could have had it all.

You know, you could have had a career

and a life with someone who understands the job,

understands you.

But fair enough if you [inaudible]..

I'm sorry.

Oh, sure.

Please don't ask me again, Ray.

Or mention it to anyone

Ah, don't worry.

I won't go round to the papers when you're

a saggy ass commissioner.

You know, pet, they don't believe me--

they already think you're a dyke.

MICK DEAKIN: It's been a long time.

Crims all look the same after a while.

ZANE MALIK: This John Hunt guy--

shot someone.

He got away with it.

Well, he reminds me of a crim we had a serious eye

on for some armed robs.

First one involved a shooting.

Anything particular about him?

Yeah, worked alone.

Always wore a dark-hooded sweatshirt and a balaclava.

Would dive the same make of car for every job.

What kind of car?

Charger.

Pinched them from train stations.

And why was this guy never arrested?

We were told to back off.

Drug squad wanted him.

How'd the drug squad get priority over armed robbery?

Even in the job, mate, it's who you know.

And what they want him for?

They ever tell you?

Of course not.

Drug squad was God's squad in those days.

We told them he had blood on his hands,

but they didn't want to hear about it.

What was this crim's name?

James something.

Anything about his character?

Yeah, he was a smart ass.

Thought he was above the law.

Even tried shedding up one of our female detectives one day.

So how bad was he?

Well, he had no problem being a nasty bastard.

And I bet you some of his victims

still haven't recovered.

You know one of them, don't you?

Yeah, I do.

A scientist, smart guy.

He's from Baghdad.

But when he came to Australia, his qualifications

weren't recognized, so he had to start again.

He ran a grocery store for 12 hours a day.

He studied nights.

He was about to graduate.

And this piece of filth shot him in the head,

in front of his 12-year-old son.

Did he die?

No.

But he might as well have.

Boy's father became a child.

And the boy felt responsible.

Yeah?

ZANE MALIK: Yeah.

His name was Wilson.

James Wilson.

All right.

When you run into him again, give him a big smack from me.

So who was it in drug squad that told you to back off.

Can't recall that, but you'll work it out, won't you.

[phone ringing]

Zane, we better go.

That cleaner that you interviewed, Helena Tadic?

Her alibi has a two-hour hole in it.

On the night of the murder, you were noticed absent from work

for about two hours.

Yes.

- Where were you? - I went for a walk.

I felt sick.

What was wrong?

I need vomit-- it happens sometimes

from cleaning chemicals.

Did you talk to anyone?

No.

Did you notice if anyone saw you?

No, it was a short walk in the park nearby.

Then I came back, I rested in one of the locker

rooms that had bed.

You never left the hospital grounds?

If you were that ill, didn't you consider going home?

Have your husband pick you up?

My husband is--

I'm a widow.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Did he die during the war in Bosnia?

Yes, I live near [non-english]..

In Bosnia?

Yes, and no.

Our hometown, [non-english] now belongs

to the Serbian Republic.

Must have been tough during the war--

being in a mixed marriage, Bosnian and Serbian.

That's why we were taken out of our home

and put in Omarska camp, until Red Cross free us.

But that was too late for Mirko.

SONNY KOA: Did you think Kuric killed Mirko?

No.

And I did not kill Dusan Kuric.

Dusan was at Omarska camp, wasn't he?

He was a soldier with the Serbian army.

There were soldiers everywhere-- calling us dirty

Muslims, hate in their eyes.

It it were me, I'd be after revenge for sure.

I need my strength not to get infected by hate.

I need my strength to survive.

And the war is in the past, and we cannot change the past.

But when it comes into our present,

we have the opportunity to change the future, don't we?

My future is widow.

Killing Dusan Kuric does not bring my Mirko back.

ZANE MALIK: James Robert Wilson, suspected

doing a bunch of armed robberies throughout the '80s,

including a couple around Punchbowl

in the latter part of '86.

So James Wilson wasn't in Hong Kong at that time.

See, I contacted birth stats and marriages

in case Hunt had changed his name by [inaudible]..

I couldn't get by on the name John Hunt.

Which means John Hunt's already in and he's protected.

Which means James Wilson's [inaudible]..

James Wilson became John Hunt.

SONNY KOA: So Crowley didn't lie, theoretically.

Remember my fishing expedition on Crowley?

I reckon this must be the last piece of the puzzle.

Trust me, you said.

Ah, well, I [inaudible].

You been lying for 20 years, right?

Well, a little bit of bullshit, [inaudible]..

Yeah, well, in 1986, Detective Deakin had a strong suspect--

[interposing voices]

--including a violent in Lakemba.

The suspect was James Robert Wilson.

You remember James Robert Wilson?

Yes, but that case is gone now,

and Wilson would have been a teenager at the time.

Yeah, but Wilson was also working

for Mr. Lou King, the godfather of the biggest

drug gang in the southwest.

Now you remember him?

I do, mate, because we ousted all

the major part of that gang, thanks to Wilson's work as a--

The strings you must have pulled for the drug squad--

That was a huge case.

That bust made history.

You should read about it.

Saved the world, didn't you?

And James Robert Wilson became a free man, with a new identity.

So what am I bullshitting about, exactly?

Zane, he was my geek, I was looking out for him.

That's the way we used to do things back then.

And I'll tell you, mate, he never told me he shot anyone.

That's bullshit, because Deakin told you.

And you chose not to do with it, because helping you out

on your little drugs case wasn't going to get him

off an attempted murder charge.

So why bother, right?

We put away several major players.

It was good police work.

Now giving him to Deakin's not going to take back that bullet

in your old man's head.

Well, who cares, right?

I mean, he's another Arab that got shot on the [inaudible]..

Your words, mate.

You were thinking about your career.

[interposing voices]

No, I was thinking about my job.

I was a cop for doing my job.

What are you going to do?

What-- you're going to run up to [inaudible]??

That what you're going to do?

You're going to squeal, going to get Hunt, give him to Deakin,

drag him through the courts, put your old man on the stand?

[interposing voices]

That would be closure for my family.

[laughs]

What's funny about that?

Closure, mate.

You don't want closure.

So what do I want, then?

What your mob always want--

blood for blood.

Eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Look who's talking, mate.

What happened to Basher, huh?

What did happen to Basher?

JUNG LIM: Hey, Malik, Wright wants to see you.

Good, I want to see her.

Yes?

I told you to leave it to Lakemba to follow up.

In a matter of days, I've got what

I think is substantial evidence for solving my father's case.

I admire your tenacity, and I trust your instincts.

But now you have to return the favor.

I'll look at it, and refer it to--

[interposing voices]

He's flying tomorrow to Peru!

Just keep your voice down.

You'll find that an interesting read.

HELLEN CALLAS: Helena's hometown [non-english] was taken over

by Serb militia, and Muslims and Croats

were forced out of their homes and interned at Omarska camp.

Men were tortured, killed, women raped,

some were even deliberately forced to have babies.

Geez, no wonder she wanted to kill me.

HELLEN CALLAS: Of the 200 soldiers that ran this camp,

only 10 have been arrested.

How'd you make Petrovic go at those current [inaudible]..

Good, she confirmed that there was some bad car business.

But there was also this other document

in the file-- it was this list of names, didn't

seem related to anything.

So you got nothing.

Quite the opposite.

Because the list of names included both Franko Vukovic

and Dusan Kuric.

Why didn't we pick that up before?

It's written in Cyrillic.

It's the Serbian alphabet.

So once [inaudible],, Sergeant Petrovic translated the list.

I had it faxed to the Hague.

It turns out, they're both being investigated

for war crimes in Omarska.

But no warrants have been issued yet?

No, unfortunately not.

SONNY KOA: Maybe we can help them.

Why did you join the Serb militia?

To protect my people.

My family were told the Muslims wanted jihad,

and they would kill them all.

Did you think that putting a soldier in the right camp

would fix that?

A soldier doesn't get to choose where he's sent.

What this got to do with Dusan's death, anyway?

We have reason to believe that Dusan's past

may have caught up with him.

ZANE MALIK: What kind of soldier was Dusan?

Hardworking, committed.

What as he like in Omarska?

Everyone talks about Milosevic, or Sarajevo.

There were atrocities committed on both sides during the war.

Dusan's entire family were killed.

Do you think he was after revenge?

You weren't there. You wouldn't understand.

SONNY KOA: Make us understand.

One day, a soldier in my platoon

was ordered to rape a Muslim woman.

He refused.

So the commander tied him up to a pole,

and cut off his testicles.

He bled to death.

So yes, I had to do things, things I hated.

I had no choice. - You had a choice.

Doesn't matter what sort of things--

you only should be prepared to die for your ethics.

We were all victims.

You realize we'll have to turn you over to the federal police.

Have you ever heard of a woman called Helena Tadic?

No.

She was imprisoned at Omarska camp.

I barely looked at the faces.

Why would I remember the names?

Take it from me--

they'll never forget your face.

SONNY KOA: We'd like to talk to you about Omarska.

Why?

What does this to do with the investigation?

We have reason to believe that Dusan's

death may be connected to his time as a soldier over there.

Your account may also read to the investigation

of a war criminal.

We were brought to Omarska.

Immediately, my husband was separated from us.

But they force us to watch them making example of him.

The commander said, my husband is traitor--

a Serb that married a Muslim.

So they shoot him.

And then the commander rape me, and that was the beginning.

Then they were wearing sometimes hoods, or cover their faces.

Cowards, trying to hide their identity.

But we could always remember their eyes.

SONNY KOA: Helena, what can you tell us about a man

called Franko Vukovic.

- I don't know this person. - What about Dusan Kuric?

He is scum of earth.

But I did not kill him.

[knocking]

We double-checked details on Ms. Tadic, they asked if I was

referring to Mrs. or Ms. Tadic.

There's another Tadic working at the hospital.

It's Helena's daughter.

[knocking]

Elvira Tadic?

I'm Detective Helen Callas, this is Detective Zane Malik.

We're going to need to ask you a few questions.

ZANE MALIK: Can you tell us what your movements

were three nights ago?

Got home from work around 4:00.

Had dinner, watched TV.

Did you make any phone calls?

I can't remember.

That's OK.

We can check landline and mobile records.

Really?

Your mother has told us about Omarska, that there was a--

I was a child then.

I really don't think I can help.

We need you to come with us.

Mama!

Mama!

Mama! [crying]

Mrs. Tadic, please.

I want to confess.

I killed Dusan Kuric!

Don't listen to her!

No, it's not true, it was me!

Me!

I killed Dusan Kuric!

Mama, no!

It was me!

It was me!

[sobbing]

When did you decide to kill him?

As soon as we left [non-english] I was petrified.

I knew the nightmares would never go away.

And this-- that night, I took the morphine from the hospital.

HELLEN CALLAS: How did you access the morphine?

Did your mother help you?

When you're a refugee, people see poor, uneducated peasant.

I am-- I was a doctor in Bosnia.

I know what I was looking for.

SONNY KOA: So you took the morphine, and then?

I watched the car yard, until he's the last person there.

I knock on the show room window, say I wanted to buy.

I know he'll say yes, he's greedy.

How did you get him to take the morphine?

I put it in coffee.

I threw the cup away later.

And then when he's sleepy, I stabbed him--

Through his heart, then between his legs

When was the first time you met Dusan Kuric?

We were in Omarska.

The day they took some women away-- away to a field

and raped them.

It's five soldiers to one woman in that place.

The next day, they picked me.

She's only 12.

I plead with them--

please don't take my daughter.

Take me.

They laugh.

And they say to my mother, if she's so keen,

they will take her.

And they did.

Many times.

[sobbing]

And then they took Elvira.

JUNG LIM: And Dusan Kuric?

He was one of them.

And he made my mother watch while--

And when I became pregnant, and the baby was born breech

and, um--

I can still hear her screaming.

The baby-- baby died.

SONNY KOA: How did you know where to find him?

I didn't.

We were looking for a second-hand car,

and there he was.

Complete coincidence, or fate.

I couldn't believe it was him.

So polite.

There's this photo of his happy family on his desk.

So how did you know for sure it was him?

The eyes.

His voice, and his smell.

And when a man hurts your family, you know--

I know.

And I did what I should 11 years ago.

[sobbing]

I killed him.

I'm guilty.

I did it.

I kill him.

[non-english speech]

I'm sure all your pain and suffering will be eased.

Two confessions.

Who will you charge?

Both of them.

Each statement is convincing.

We don't have enough evidence that

leads one way or the other, or that

suggests they did it together.

One will give evidence for the other,

and the juries will have reasonable doubt.

Like you said, trust the system.

That's unsatisfactory, Malik, and you know it.

While I'm sympathetic to the women,

we're not in a position to let it slide

because they both confessed.

Don't you think they've been through enough?

A man has been brutally killed,

and there was only one person found at the murder scene.

Were you even listening to their statements?

Yes, and I'm leaning towards charging the mother.

Insufficient evidence.

Now, Vera had as much opportunity and motive

as Helena, leave it as it is.

I don't like it.

Well, let a jury decide.

This isn't a game, Malik.

The irony is the war crimes tribunal

[inaudible] Kuric anyway.

Do you really think so?

That war ended 12 years ago.

So far, they've convicted 10 out of the 200 soldiers

that went to Omarska camp.

That still doesn't justify taking

the law into your own hands.

Just listen to Elvira and Helena,

you see if you come up with the same conclusion.

I get the idea, Malik.

I don't think you do.

You might think it's hard when someone tries to destroy you--

it's unbearable when they try and destroy someone you love.

Well, I'm sorry you think that about me.

Oh, and Malik, legal services got back to me.

You don't have enough to stop Hunt.

I'm sorry.

[suspenseful music]

Admit what you did in '86.

Mate, you got the wrong bloke.

No, I've got James Wilson, armed robber.

I know it was you, because I was there.

Oh, that was a long time ago.

Did you'd think I'd forget?

Your eyes, your voice, that gun in my face.

[tense music]

You destroyed my family.

Well, go on then-- you're going to kill me.

Shoot!

Or are you going to choke, like you did 20 years ago?

[inaudible]

When you pulled the trigger, it took my father away.

Wait!

I have a son!

I have a son!
