Greetings to all.
I, Anup Soni, welcome you all
to today's episode
of 'Crime Patrol'.
Today, the world has changed.
But there is something
that has remained the same.
And that is the condition of
women and girls in our society.
They were exploited in the past
and even now they are
being exploited in some way.
The case we bring to you today
is quite a shocking one.
It shows how a girl,
in a span of three days
was married off to
three different men.
All three marriages
were consummated.
She was divorced
by all three men soon after.
What was this case all about?
And who was that girl?
Hey, why are both of you scared?
Do you love each other?
Fine. Both of you are adults.
You've the right to get married.
Ma'am, you are not getting it.
You don't know how
it is in our community.
If the chiefs of our
community get to know
that I'm getting married
outside the community
they'll kill me.
- Come on, you silly girl!
Nobody does that.
Police and law will protect you.
Won't they?
And the village and
community chiefs..
They are not above law, Bela.
Listen, Bela. I will
talk to your family.
Everything will be alright.
It's of no use.
Mother will never agree.
I hope your father
listens to you.
Try talking to him.
Hello. Hang on,
she's right here.
Your sister is on the line.
Hello.
- Where are you?
The stove is not working
and mom is furious.
Come home soon.
Yes.. Okay.
Dad!
Hey, you are back!
Look what I got for you.
What is it? - Give it to
your sister too. - Yes.
Samosa!
- Yes...
I'll be right back.
What's wrong with your mother?
She looks infuriated.
She is angry because
sister hasn't returned yet.
Laugh all you want!
Later don't tell me anything
when your daughter
brings shame to you!
This girl is about
to get married.
But you people are
not at all concerned about it!
Your mother is always furious.
You are back!
Where had you been?
Tell me! Where had you been?
Well.. Mom, I had gone to
work at Ms. Kiran's place.
I got late as I had work.
What great work do
you have to do there?
That's the end of it! No need
to go to work hereafter.
But, Mom, how is this..
Why don't you get it?
You are going to get married
to the village chief's son.
You are so fortunate!
But how can I quit my job
all of a sudden, Mom?
Dad..
After getting married, I won't
be able to do anything anyway.
And Ms. Kiran needs me.
She takes such good care of me.
Look. She has sent
books for Gunjan.
Dad, look..
- Show it..
If the village chief gets to
know that she is studying
he'll strip her in front
of the entire community!
Mom..
- Mom!
Mom, what are you doing?
Come on, quick.. The panchayat
meeting has been called.
Hey, Mr. Ramesh!
What happened? - The panchayat
meeting has been called.
Something serious has happened.
Come quickly.
Does he have no shame?
I take care of his kids at home.
And he is having affairs!
- What nonsense!
She is lying to you, Chief.
Not at all, sir.
I am speaking the truth.
I caught him red-handed.
- What is this, Deepak?
What is she saying? Are you
lying to us? Don't you know
in our community,
lying to the village chiefs
is considered to be a grave sin?
Now tell the truth.
Did you cheat on your wife and
have an extramarital affair?
F-Forgive me, Chief.
I made a mistake.
- Saw that?
He admitted his mistake.
You do know
that in our community, you won't
be forgiven for such a mistake
instead you'll be punished.
And you will be
punished for sure.
Whatever you did
with the other woman
the chiefs will do
the same with your wife. Got it?
What are you saying, Chief?
I came to you
to report his wrongdoings.
And you are punishing me!
Hey, Gowri! Why do you cry?
This is not a punishment to you
rather Deepak is being punished.
Everybody should learn
that if a married man
has an extramarital affair
this is what will happen
with his wife.
You can't do that, Chief!
- Enough!
The panchayat's
decision is final.
Dear Lord..
Radhe
you know
what all is happening
in our community.
I have decided
that very soon
I'll get your daughter engaged
to my son Kishore.
Soon after that,
I'll get them married.
Get on with the preparations.
Bela, where were you?
I had to do all the work.
You know I had a meeting today.
Ma'am..
My family is getting me
engaged forcibly.
I don't understand what to do.
My mother won't
let me go out at all.
It took me a lot to convince
her to let me come here.
Don't worry I'll explain her.
It's pointless.
They won't agree.
Please let me talk
to Kundan once.
Okay.
Hello!
- Kundan!
My family is getting me engaged.
What? Let's do this.
Let's elope. I shall bring
a car in the afternoon.
Be ready.
- Okay.
Take this money.
You'll need this.
Take care.
What is this?
- Sorry. - What sorry?
It was a mistake. - Let's
go to the police. - Let it be.
Let go. - Let me go. - You have
a shop here to do this, right?
Don't stare! Just leave.
- You go.
Are you okay?
- Yes, I am.
You go!
I'll be back soon.
You both don't go out. Okay!
The community
members will be here.
Come let's go soon.
Sister, are you really leaving?
Sister, I am very scared.
Gunjan, you tell me.
You know what kind
of a man Kishore is.
If I end up with him
he'll devour me every day.
But, Sister...
- Gunjan
I love Kundan a lot.
I can't live without him.
Take care.
Hurry.
Who's this?
Tell me. Who is this?
Kishore, what is this?
- Dad, look!
Who is this boy?
Father...
I love Kundan!
What are you saying?
Are you crazy?
with gifts to fix
the wedding date.
And you...
- Father...
No...
- Father...
An innocent girl was punished.
Punished for falling in love.
Before the entire community
the girl and her lover
were stripped off
clothes and beaten up.
Had all Bela's troubles
had come to an end?
Did Bela finally
dodge the bullet?
Where is Bela?
What happened to you?
Say something.
- Nothing.
Tell me, Bela.
Something happened for sure.
She is unwell.
Doctor has asked her to rest.
Okay. Take care.
Okay.
I was going through that layout.
Wait, I'll come to office.
And then let's go about this.
Yes, okay.
Hello.
- Hello!
Your video has gone viral.
Video?
- Yes.
You could have told
me about it once.
Your community people
are so disgusting.
How could they do all
this with Kundan and you?
I don't know about
Kundan's condition.
Where is he? - I found out
that he's in the city hospital.
It's been a month
that he's in the ICU.
He is a bit stable now.
But his condition is very bad.
Sir!
Sir, look at this video.
It's going viral.
The location is Panvel.
Find out who these people are.
The perpetrators
deserve third degree.
I don't know why people
have forgotten humanity.
Sister,
let me go fetch some water.
Okay.
Sir, take me
to the city hospital. - Okay.
Let's go.
Sir, we have found the
location the video was filmed.
Tell me, where's Bela?
Tell me.
- I don't know, Mother.
You know everything.
I checked everywhere
but couldn't find Bela.
Tell me.
- Mom. - Tell me.
Hey!
- Mom!
What is happening here?
Why are you hitting her?
Nothing, sir.
Show the video.
Is this your daughter,
Bela's video?
Yes, sir.
- Where is Bela?
We are also looking for her.
I wonder where she has gone.
Sir, I and Shobha work at
a building construction site.
We had been to work.
- Wasn't anybody at home?
You must be knowing.
I had gone out to fill water.
Sister was not at home
when I returned.
Mr. Radhe, I found her.
- Where? - There.
Bela!
Where is she?
Bela!
Bela!
- Bela!
Bela.
- Hold them.
Sister.
- Bela, get up.
Bela. My daughter.
- My daughter.
My daughter.
- Sister.
Sir, look at this.
Strangulation marks.
Pratap, I think the girl
struggled a lot before dying.
Look at the condition
of the grass.
Check whether there is
any CCTV around.
And inquire whether
anybody saw her coming here.
Send the body for post-mortem.
- Sir.
Where had Bela gone?
We don't know, sir.
I already told you
that nobody was at home.
I don't know whether
she went on her own
or she went after being scared
of somebody, sir.
Out of fear?
Whom was she scared of?
Was she scared of the ones
who killed her?
Sir, the village heads.
We don't get married to people
from a different community.
My daughter, Bela,
was in love with Kundan
who did not belong
to our community.
She has been punished
for the same, sir.
Such a big punishment?
This is nothing, sir.
The punishment that she got
after that
was not a punishment,
but a crime.
Did something else happen
after this too?
This girl has committed a sin
by falling in love with a guy
from a different community.
We don't even know
whether she is pure
or she has done something wrong.
She will be examined
and she will be punished too.
Forgive her, sir.
- Radhe, crimes like these
are not forgiven
in our community.
They are punished.
One after the other,
she will be married to
all the three village heads.
No, sir.
- One after the other
she will have to celebrate
her marital night too.
After that, all the three
village heads
will divorce her too
one after the other.
No, sir. - No.
- She is a kid.
I request you.
Please forgive her.
She is a kid.
Please forgive her.
So, you want me
to reduce her punishment.
Okay, let's do one thing.
Transfer the land in your
village and your house
in my son's name
because my son is the one
who has been wronged
in this case.
What do you say?
Don't you agree?
- No, sir. I agree.
Take my land in the village
and my house.
Forgive my daughter, sir.
Forgive her. - Okay.
Go!
- Thank you.
How did you agree to give
the land and the house?
What else could I do?
How could I let them
marry my daughter?
Listen, Bela's life
has been ruined.
She has no respect now.
And nobody from our community
will marry her.
Her life has been ruined.
By giving the land
why are you ruining
the younger daughter's life too?
She has to get married too.
How will we arrange money
for that?
We'll think about it
when the time comes.
What will you do?
Has your family left
any property behind?
Listen to what
I am saying now.
Accept their condition.
They were raping her
in the name of punishment
and you let that happen.
We are poor people, sir.
What could we do?
We were helpless.
Would we put our daughter
in trouble
if we had any other option?
Why didn't you guys come to us?
The village heads rule
our community.
Nobody can go against them, sir.
Dad, the police is here.
Hey, take them.
Come on.
Take them.
- Sir, what is this?
Where are you taking us?
What have we done?
You guys hit Bela and Kundan.
You made them roam around naked.
After that, you raped Bela.
We have a doubt
that you even killed Bela.
Did we do this?
This is a lie.
These are false allegations.
Radhe has told us everything.
Come.
Okay, Radhe told you everything.
Did you believe
Radhe's statement?
Do you have any evidence?
Tell me.
Come to the police station.
I'll show it to you.
Let's go.
- Sir!
You need evidence to take me.
Do one thing.
Bring the evidence.
Talk to me after that.
Greetings.
What are you waiting for?
Take them.
Hey! - Sir, this is
about the village heads.
The situation can get
out of control.
A scene will be created
for no reason.
I'll bring the evidence
and drag you to jail.
- Happily! Go!
How is her condition now?
We want her testimony.
- It won't possible right now.
The beaten was severe..
He has internal injuries.
He's been in critical
condition for a month.
Until his condition gets better
we can't allow you to get
his statement.
Inform us just as he wakes up.
Okay, sir.
- Get his statement.
Meanwhile, go and get the Panch.
I'll make them
tell us the truth.
Sir!
Sir
the location where Bela's corpse
was found has no CCTV camera.
This is Bela's
post-mortem report.
While the body
has minor injuries
there are no major injuries.
And she was killed by
strangulation. - Anything else?
Sir, Bela was pregnant.
A month old foetus
was found inside her.
Radhe claims that
all the Panch raped her.
This means that Bela
got pregnant by
one of the Panch.
That will be confirmed
only if the DNA of one of them
matches with
that of the foetus.
Sir, the baby might also
be Kundan's.
It's possible.
But if
the DNA of any Panch
matches with that of the foetus
we'll get an evidence of rape
against the sarpanch.
No one will speak
against the Panch.
Everyone here is scared of them.
There must be someone
who will complain against them.
No one will!
This isn't the first time
it has happened.
This happens every time.
This happened to a girl
a few years ago.
To whom?
To Sandhya.
Where's she now?
Out of shame,
she left this village.
Take her phone number
and trace her down.
The story connected with Bela's
murder that the police uncovered
was quite astonishing.
The police wanted to find out
if Prajapati, Surendra
and Ramakanth
in the name of justice
and under the pretence
of marriage
take turns raping Bela.
And if Bela was murdered
over this
or if there was some
other reason.
No one came forward
from the community to speak
against the Panch.
Bela, who had been victim
of these deeds
had already died.
And Sandhya, whom Radhe
had mentioned
was nowhere to be found.
The police wanted
Bela's murderers
behind the bars quickly.
But they were yet to uncover
a horrifying truth.
Ma'am..
Ma'am..
Ma'am..
Please go down..
Karde, break in.
Pratap
I can see marks on her neck.
It looks like she was
strangled to death.
The condition of the corpse
indicates
that it's been at least two days
since she died.
Karde
check if there are CCTV
cameras around.
Sir.
Who was the one who
made the phone call? - I did.
Kiran hadn't picked up milk
packets for two days
and I smelled a stench
coming from inside.
Did Kiran live by herself?
Yes, she lived alone.
She shifted here from Delhi
a few months ago.
Who are you?
- I'm Sushma.
I live in this neighbourhood.
Okay..
The corpse has been inside
for two days.
Does no one come her?
She didn't get visitors
but a maid used to come.
- What do you mean 'used to'?
She quit the job a month ago.
- Why?
I don't know about that.
Something must've happened,
though.
What's the name of the maid?
- It's Bela.
Yes, it's her.
Was she also murdered?
Sir
there's no CCTV camera
in this neighbourhood.
All right.
Inform her family
and send the corpse
for post-mortem.
Sir!
My daughter wanted
to achieve a lot in life.
She wanted to gain
a lot of success.
She came here
to Mumbai, from Delhi.
Before she was just far from us
but now she's so
far out of reach..
She's too far..
Drink water..
Thank you, sir..
Did she have a fight
with anyone?
Some enmity?
No, sir.
Nothing of the sort.
She was quite outspoken.
She couldn't control herself
in the face of injustice.
A while back
she was bothered over her maid.
Her maid, Bela?
Yes, sir.
Dad, thank you so much!
You've given me
such a good life!
Here, forget about love
girls can't even marry
by their choice!
That Bela..
She works for me, Dad..
My house help..
Her family has been
so bad to her..
I can't even describe it to you!
That's all right, dear.
You live there by yourself.
Why do you get yourself
involved with other's matters?
I'm worried for you.
Did you make educated
and capable
so that I'd stay quiet?
And in face of such injustice!
She has died, though.
She was murdered.
The one who murdered Bela
might have killed Kiran.
What are you saying?
I mean..
Why'd anyone do that?
Where's Gunjan?
I've sent her to get groceries.
We are complaining
against the village head
to the police
but.. But I am terrified.
After what they did
to our daughter
I will surely get them punished.
These are Radhe and Shobha.
Who shot their video?
We don't know
who those people were, sir.
What happened?
Sir, we were at our home.
Two people came
and thrashed us, sir.
They blackened my face,
stripped and thrashed me, sir.
And you didn't come
to tell us the same.
Why do you people do this?
What would we have done
by coming to you?
What did you do when
they killed our daughter?
We have been punished
because we complained about
the village council to you.
If we had come to you
I wonder what they would
have done to Gunjan.
So, do you think
the village council did this?
How can we say that, sir?
It's your job
to find out the truth.
So, your daughter, Bela
used to work for Kiran, right?
Yes, sir.
Ms. Kiran is a good woman.
She came here to ask about Bela.
What about her, sir?
Kiran was a good woman.
Even she has been murdered.
What?
Let's consider that Bela was
killed by the village council.
But why would they kill Kiran?
I don't know anything, sir.
She was enquiring
about Bela's death.
That is what I know.
Sir, Kiran's post-mortem report
is here.
She died on the 12th.
Even she was strangled to death.
On the 12th.
So, Kiran was murdered the day
Bela was murdered.
Yes, sir.
According to her call records
she called Bela multiple times
on the morning of the 12th.
What is the connection
between Bela and Kiran's death?
Why would anyone kill them?
Pratap, do this.
Find out whose mobile was used
to send out this viral video.
I think the two henchmen
of the village head
are behind this.
Sir!
Excuse me, sir.
Hello?
All right.
Send me the address.
We have found Sandhya's address
through her phone number, sir.
Excuse me.
Yes?
- Where does Sandhya live?
I am Sandhya.
What is it?
We want to talk to you
about your village head.
Sir, why did you come here?
P-Please leave.
My husband is at home. If he
finds out, he will leave me.
P-Please come here.
What is it?
- Did you know Bela?
Bela has been murdered.
First, she was humiliated
using punishment as an excuse.
Then she was assaulted by the
village council one by one.
We suspect that they killed her.
Sandhya, what happened to you?
'Do it!
- No..'
'Hey, go!
- No..'
You should give
your statement in court.
Sir, I won't say this in court.
Whatever happened was my past.
I can't ruin my present
for the same.
I beg you, sir.
Please go.
I beg you, sir.
Hello.
- Sir, Radhe was right.
I talked to Sandhya.
She went through the same.
But she denied giving
a statement in the court.
All right.
I received a call
from the hospital.
Kundan has regained
consciousness.
Meet me there.
His condition is still critical.
Please hurry up.
Kundan, what happened to Bela?
I don't know.
How is Bela?
Bela is no more.
Someone murdered her.
Look, if you want
Bela to get justice
you have to complain against
the village head and others.
Record his statement.
And issue an arrest warrant
against the village chiefs.
Yes, sir.
Where are you taking us?
- Hey, leave me..
Hey, you! I'm telling you.
This is not right.
Hey! A cheap person like you
shouldn't talk about
what's good and what's not.
Check if his DNA
matches with Bela's foetus.
Come. - Hey! Leave me.
Sir, the vendor
near Kiran's house
is missing from the
last two days. - So what?
We have that heard
he was disturbed
since the time
Kiran was murdered.
He even had a fight
with Kiran and Bela.
Do you have his photograph?
- No, sir.
But I have got his number.
Go, check it once. - Yes, sir.
Tell me the number.
Sir, Prajapati, Ramakanth
and Surendra..
The DNA report of
all these three is out.
But none of their
DNAs perfectly match
with any of them. - Does
Kundan's DNA match?
No, sir.
But there's a man whose
DNA matches with the foetus
up to 50 per cent.
- Who is he? - Prajapati.
Does he have a brother?
- No, sir.
He has only one brother
and his name is Kishore.
Bring him here. - Okay, sir.
Sir, I-I don't know anything.
Do you have an uncle?
- No, sir.
Does your father have an affair
from which you have
a stepbrother? - No.
Okay.
Your father's DNA has matched
with Bela's foetus
up to 50 per cent.
You have no uncle
or a stepbrother.
That means,
Bela was carrying your baby.
N-No, sir.. We were
about to get married.
So, s-she slept
with me willingly.
It was your baby
which Bela was carrying.
Bela used to love
someone else.
How did she come
with you to sleep?
You have killed her, right?
- N-No..
Look, you raped Bela.
You impregnated her
Kiran got to know about it
she pressurised
you to marry Bela
but you didn't
want to marry her.
That's why you killed
Bela and Kiran, both.
N-No, sir,
I don't even know about it.
You will not open your mouth.
You are just like your father.
Stop thrashing him only when
he starts telling us the truth.
Sir..
Sir, we have found the source
of Radhe and Shobha's video.
How is this possible?
Oh, wow! New clothes?
Holi is around the corner.
My clothes are more
beautiful than yours.
You deserve it.
Because you are beautiful.
Gunjan.
Dad..
No, dear.
Dad, who will tell me that
I'm the most beautiful girl?
Who will tell it to me now, Dad?
Inspector, you..
The viral video of
your wife and you
was made from your mobile phone.
What did you get by humiliating
yourself and your wife?
What else would I have done,
sir?
You aren't able to catch that
village chief and his henchmen.
So I thought of doing
something by myself.
Yes, I had paid my friend
to make that video.
This is illegal and what
you've done is very wrong.
You can't get us justice.
In fact, you are teaching us
what is law.
So let's finish it
once and for all.
You can't punish them, can you?
But I can surely kill myself.
Oh..
- Shobha.. - Mom, open the door.
Shobha, don't do this.
Inspector..
Hey! Open the door.
Karde, break it down.
Shobha.. - Mom..
Mom.
Pratap, call the ambulance!
- Yes, sir.
Shobha!
How's your mom doing now?
Much better now, sir.
But, sir..
My parents didn't do anything
on purpose.
They just wanted justice.
My dad made this video
for this very reason.
Sir, they haven't done
anything wrong.
Sir, hold on!
Hello.
Good.
Sir, we have some information
about the tea seller.
Bring him to the police station.
Sir!
Stand up..
Sir, listen to me..
Why did you kill Bela?
I didn't kill anyone, sir.
You killed her.
You loved Bela, didn't you?
Didn't you yell at Kiran?
'Hey!'
'What are you doing?'
'I'm sorry..
- What sorry!'
'It was by mistake..
- Come to the police station.'
'Sister, let him go.'
'What are you staring at?
- Please, leave..'
So you killed both of them.
No, sir. It's true
that I loved Bela.
I even had a fight
with Kiran.
But I haven't
killed anyone, sir.
You're lying!
Sir, please don't beat me..
- You're lying..
Take him away.
- Come.. - Sir..
We found this video
on Kishore's phone.
Karde, take him away.
Beat him up!
Pratap.
This is the video
of Bela's rape.
How did you get this video?
Sir.. Well..
I..
- Go ahead.
How did you get this?
- Sir..
Tell us how you
got this video!
Sir, when Bela was being raped
I was the one recording it, sir.
You had raped her, didn't you?
You raped her, didn't you?
Your DNA..
The foetus inside Bela's body
matches with your DNA.
You raped her, didn't you?
Sir, while everyone
were raping Bela
and when I got the opportunity
to do it
I also raped her, sir.
Sir, don't beat us..
Please..
What will you do?
- Sir, we haven't done anything.
I'm warning you. - Your son
has given us the proof
of your good deeds!
We have the video
of you guys raping Bela.
You raped her first
and then killed her.
Kiran got to know about it
and she was about to disclose
it to us..
So you killed Kiran as well.
We haven't done
anything wrong. - Patil.
Don't stop beating
until they tell the truth.
Sir, we haven't done anything.
You will regret this.
I'm warning you.
Okay.. I will call you later.
Sir, they are not ready
to accept it.
They are saying that
there was no rape.
He married Bela and they
celebrated the nuptial night.
Neither do they know
about any murder
nor do they know Kiran!
Somebody must have
definitely killed them.
I want every detail
of this case.
Even the smallest of hints.
Yes, sir.
Sir.
Bela was found on the CCTV
camera outside the hospital.
Sir, look at this.
She went to the hospital
before she died
and she then went
near her house.
But sir, there's one thing.
Look at this.
She went to the hospital
and left immediately.
Look at this.
She got down
from the autorickshaw
and she saw someone
behind her..
She then sat
in the autorickshaw.
Somebody was following her.
The person who was following her
must have killed her.
Find the owner
of this autorickshaw.
Bring him here.
- Yes, sir.
Yes, sir. This girl
came in my autorickshaw.
She told me to drop her
to the hospital.
When I reached the hospital
she sat in the autorickshaw
as she was scared
and told me to drop her
back to the place
where I had
picked her up from.
Did you see who was
in the autorickshaw?
Yes, sir.
When I went to drop her
one autorickshaw
was following us.
I felt that something is fishy!
I got down and checked,
it was a man.
Show him the pictures.
Which one was it?
No, sir.
Yes, sir. He's the one.
You killed your own daughter.
Why?
My daughter had already died
when those guys raped her.
And you tried to frame them?
What else would I do?
Sir.
Kiran had told Bela that
she'd publish Bela's incident
in the news channel.
Anyway, we were
already humiliated.
It would be a disgrace to us
if she did this
and nobody would marry Gunjan.
When my daughter
left for hospital from home
I followed her.
'Dad, I made a mistake..
Please, forgive me.'
'It's not your fault, dear.'
'You're just unlucky
to have born in this society!'
'But I don't want Gunjan
to have the same experience'
'like you.'
'No, Dad..
- You know..'
'I love you dearly.'
'Please, forgive me.
- No, Dad.'
I did this for my
younger daughter, Gunjan.
You should've come to us.
You should've asked us
for help.
But, no.
You killed Bela and Kiran
in the name of honour
and respect.
I'll make sure
you get severe punishment.
Prajapati, Surendra, Ramakanth
and Kishore
were punished
for raping Bela.
And Radhe was punished
for killing Bela and Kiran.
All five of them
misbehaved with Bela.
Radhe's anger was justifiable
as he was Bela's father.
But the path he chose
to punish the village heads
was unthinkable.
It was a crime. It was wrong.
We learn from this case
that one can bring about change
only by raising our voice
against superstition
and society's interference
and not by fearing
of being ostracized
or by bowing down to them!
I, Anup Soni,
will take your leave.
Let's meet again on Crime Patrol
Satark' with a new case.
Take care of yourself
and your family.
and keep watching
'Crime Patrol Satark'.
Long live India!
