- Sir. - Hmm.
Sir, she's Misha. She was here when the murder took place last night.
Tell us everything from the start, Misha. How did this happen?
Sir, I was working on the decoration of this place.
Anjali insisted that we finish all the work by night.
So that we don't have to come early next morning.
What time was it at night?
It was around 2:00 am.
I went to bring water when I heard Anjali scream.
'Who-Who is that?'
'Anjali⋯'
Oh. So the killer was wearing a mask.
Pankaj, this⋯
Look at this. Click a good picture of this pestle. There's blood on it.
Maybe she was killed with this. It might be the murder weapon.
- Sir. - Hmm.
My grandma says
'When you've placed your head on the mortar, why worry about the pestle.'
She had not done anything wrong. Why did she get killed then?
One thing is certain. The killer did not bring this pestle with him.
He found it here, so he just picked it and hit her.
You mean he came to kill, but did not bring a weapon?
How is that possible, sir?
It doesn't look like he came with the intention of killing.
Maybe Anjali saw something
because of which he had to kill her.
Hold on.
Did he come with an intention to steal?
Misha,
was anything stolen from the restaurant?
You would have checked the cash counter, right?
No, sir. Nothing was stolen.
- Sir. - Hmm.
Maybe he came to steal
and Anjali might have seen him.
So, he killed her and ran away.
- Sir. - Hmm.
There are 14 CCTV cameras in this restaurant.
But there's no footage recorded at the time of the murder.
Oh.
So, the cameras have been meddled with.
It is an insider job then.
But, sir, we checked all the windows and doors.
There is no sign of any forced entry.
That means the killer has easily come in with a key.
What is this?
A bone inside the mannequin?
How can there be a bone inside the mannequin, sir?
That means there's a corpse inside the mannequin.
Hold on.
Look at this.
Sir, Mr Abhijeet.
He looks tense.
He was his close friend.
Are you okay, sir?
Mm-hmm.
I'm not okay.
Suraj was my friend of 25 years.
Sir, isn't he the same Suraj who was in the Police force?
Correct. He retired two years ago.
After that, he was working as a private detective.
Sir, it looks like an accident. But⋯
It isn't.
Do you see the blood on his body and clothes?
Look at this, it looks like a handprint.
Someone has tried to search him.
It means someone has purposely done the accident.
So that they could kill him and take whatever he had.
Yes. He had something with him that became the reason for his death.
The skull inside the mannequin is fully damaged.
Sir, could there have been a spirit inside this mannequin
which murdered her?
Pankaj, why do you always come back to the same point?
There have been two murders. Are you following?
How did this happen? Who killed Anjali?
Hey⋯ Where do you think you're going? This is a crime scene.
You must all stand there. Go there and wait.
Will you tell me where to stand in my restaurant?
Move aside.
Please calm down, dad.
Just a minute.
Sir, please don't mind what dad is saying.
Actually, he's short-tempered.
Is it? Let's also see how angry he can get.
- What is your name? - Praful. And yours?
We are from the CID.
We don't answer, we only question.
Tell us, where did this corpse
come into your restaurant, and whose is it. Speak.
Did you find anything on him?
Just this broken phone. It belonged to Suraj.
The local police contacted me after seeing my number in it.
He was trying to contact me as he was breathing his last.
Maybe he wanted to tell me something about the killer.
Sir, the killer has done all this to a policeman.
We won't spare him.
The fingerprints that we get from his clothes
may help us get to the killer.
No, Sachin.
The blood marks are spread everywhere.
We won't get any clear fingerprints.
Sir, Suraj was a police officer,
he would have left some clue for us.
Correct.
A police officer can get rid of his uniform,
but the mind stays just as sharp.
Suraj must have made a backup plan.
Let's check his house.
We will surely find something.
Sir, we run this restaurant
and export the handicrafts of the local artisans.
We don't know how this skeleton came inside this mannequin.
We had purchased these mannequins to decorate the restaurant.
But we don't how a skeleton came into the mannequin.
Sir, let's open up all the mannequins.
I'm sure we'll find corpses inside them too.
Yes, Pankaj. We have to check.
Are these the only mannequins? Or are there more?
Sir, there are a few more in the godown.
Mayank, tell them where you bought the mannequins from.
I purchased it from the same place where I buy every time.
But while buying them, there was nothing inside them.
Oh! That means after buying them
the corpse somehow entered the mannequins. Right?
So that means, it's one of you who has done this.
Whoever it is, has done it hurriedly.
Look at the joints on these mannequins. The finishing is so bad.
That means you did not find the time to hide the corpse.
Who among you will tell me whose corpse this is?
Or will the CID have to use its methods to make you speak.
Until we don't find Anjali's and this corpse's killer
until then, all of you are suspects. Remember that.
Look, sir. Please lower your voice.
We are all from a respectable family.
Dead bodies and skeletons are not found in respectable homes.
There have been two murders here. Got it?
Better tell us everything you know, right now.
Or else, if I start using my tone,
then all of you will have a tough time.
I'm really sorry, sir.
We will cooperate with you, until your case is solved.
Yes, sir. And anyway, why don't you question Aman?
He's the one in charge of the restaurant security.
- Call him. - He's missing. We haven't seen him.
Yes, sir. I think he's done all of this.
He got us caught in this and ran away.
Please go and catch him.
How far will he run away from the CID?
This is a policeman's house. A normal search will not help.
Suraj would have hidden the clue to this case in such a place
where we won't find it so easily.
Sir, we have to do a thorough search then.
Yes, absolutely. Look closely at which case he was working on.
Please come, sir.
So, this is the godown from where you bring
the mannequins and showpieces for the restaurant, huh?
Yes, sir. Every week new showpieces come and the old ones are replaced
in accordance to the restaurant theme.
Do you change the theme every week?
Yes, sir. So that the customers get a new experience every time.
Also to ensure that customers come back to eat in our restaurant.
When was that mannequin brought to your restaurant,
the one in which we found the corpse in?
Maybe 4-5 days ago.
The exact date will be entered in the register.
Anjali and Misha handled this department.
That means,
the corpse was put inside the mannequin here?
Because it can't be done in the restaurant. Isn't it?
Sir, he looks like an amateur criminal.
Did he not understand even this much
that the corpse will come out of the mannequin sooner or later.
Who has the keys to this godown?
Sir, each member of this staff has a key.
And I think, it's an insider who has betrayed us like this.
Whether the criminal was a traitor or your loyalist,
we'll find that out soon.
Ved, when was the last time someone came into the godown?
Sir, maybe 2-3 days back.
Amazing. Look at this.
The godown is closed since 2-3 days, but there's no trace of any dust.
Which soap do you use to clean this godown?
It looks like the godown has been cleaned today.
In fact, a few hours ago.
Sir, as I told you
the key to this godown is with every staff member.
Someone might have come.
Only the corpse will tell us
who had come here.
Corpse? How will the corpse talk?
CID has many methods
by which a corpse can talk.
And criminals too.
What did Suraj want to tell us?
Sir, we don't know what we are looking for.
How will we know where the clue to the case is
among all these things?
We will find out, Sachin.
If he was a police officer
- then we are also police officers. - Hmm.
'Brinda?'
This chit was hidden inside this painting.
It says, 'Brinda.'
Who could Brinda be?
We have to find out. Have a look.
He had a habit of hiding everything.
Key.
There was chit there, with Brinda's name on it.
And there's a key here.
Yes, Purvi.
Sir, the skull has been so badly smashed
that we're not able to identify the face.
But we can tell that it belonged to a man.
The killer is trying to get rid of all the evidence.
That's why he must have smashed
the victim's face.
And the godown has been cleaned so well
that we found neither footprints nor handprints.
Dust and blood stains can be cleaned, Pankaj.
But there is no soap to clean a crime, nor will there ever be.
People make mistakes while trying to hide the evidence.
We have one clue to find him, sir.
I've got the power consumption details from the electricity board.
What did you find out?
On the night of 12th March, the light in the godown was on, all night.
On a normal day, the consumption is 200 units.
But on that day, 800 units were used.
We saw there were only four bulbs in the godown.
It's clear that on the night of 12th March, the lamp in the godown
was on all night, to cover up all the criminal activities.
The corpse was put in the mannequin on the night of 12th March.
On the night of 12th March, between 2:00 am and 6:00 am, you can see
how the power consumption has gone up like Mt.Everest.
Pankaj, find out who was on this Mt.Everest 15 days ago.
And who is the staff of this restaurant
whose phone was active near the godown. Quick.
Did you find out anything about Aman?
Sir, Aman turned out to be very cunning.
His phone is turned off, and there is a toy shop at his house address.
Oh. A toy shop.
Did you speak to the shop owner?
Yes, sir. He was acting over-smart.
He told us his name was Anshul.
Anshul. Did you say anything else?
Yes, sir. He said that Aman had paid him
to answer the phone as Aman,
if anyone from the restaurant called.
Oh. That means
we have to solve four puzzles.
Whose corpse is this and who killed him?
Who killed Anjali?
And this Aman⋯
Who is Aman and what's his real name?
Sir.
On 12th March, none of the staff members were near the godown.
Amazing, he went without the phone.
No one can fly to the godown.
There is no public transport near the godown, either.
He would have gone walking by his vehicle.
Pankaj, get the CCTV footage of all the cameras near the godown.
Let's see what we get from that footage.
Right, sir.
We've found the key. We'll soon find the lock too.
Yes, Sachin. Let's go to Brinda's house, first.
Brinda was Suraj's last client, as entered in his diary.
The godown is near Jagatpura.
The restaurant is in Malvika Nagar.
Maybe, if we check the CCTV camera on the B2 Bypass,
we may catch a glimpse of this man.
- Sir. - Yes, Purvi.
Sir, in the same camera footage, at 1:45 am,
a dark blue car has turned towards the godown.
And look at this, sir. The same car is coming back at 7:00 am.
How far is this CCTV from the godown?
Around 800 metres.
Use the car number and find out whose car this is.
Yes? Who are you?
We are from CID. We are looking for Mr Harish.
Is Mr Harish the owner of this car?
Yes, it is Harish's car
but⋯
Who are you?
I'm Harish's wife, Brinda.
Are you from the CID?
Ma'am, why do you keep looking back?
Is everything okay?
Is there someone inside?
A man has entered the house some time back.
He's asking me about Harish.
He's threatening me.
I'm glad you came, sir.
Please save us, sir.
Please don't worry.
Wait here. We'll see.
Abhijeet.
Daya.
What are you both doing here?
We came here to investigate the restaurant murder. And you?
Why is Mrs Brinda so scared of you?
I'm sorry, ma'am. I did not mean to scare you.
Actually, I'm also here
to investigate a murder case.
My friend Suraj's murder.
Suraj KP?
He was a very brave police officer.
- He had won so many medals. - Yes.
He had started working as a detective for the last two years.
He was killed while working on Mrs Brinda's case. The poor guy.
Mrs Brinda, which case of yours was Suraj working on?
He was looking for my husband, Harish, who is missing.
- Since when is Harish missing? - 12th March.
'On the night of 12th March,'
'between 2:00 am and 6:00 am, you can see'
'how the power consumption has gone up like Mt.Everest.'
Praful had called him to the restaurant for a meeting.
As soon as the meeting was over, Harish called to say
that he's coming back home.
But Harish has not come home after that.
Did you file a missing report in the police station?
Yes, I did.
Police found Harish's phone and car
300 kilometres away from the city, on a lonely highway near Saputara.
But there is no news of Harish.
After which Suraj started working in the restaurant
in the security department,
to find out about Harish.
Hold on⋯
- Was he working as Aman? - Yes.
Oh⋯ Now it's clear
why Aman's name and all other information was fake.
So the restaurant murders and Suraj's case
- are interconnected. - Correct.
Harish went missing on 12th March.
And his car and phone were found
on 14th March, 300 kilometres from the city, in Saputara.
The killer from the restaurant must have left the car there.
The corpse that you found inside the mannequin in the restaurant
must be Harish's.
But boss, how can a dead body become a skeleton in 15 days?
It takes months for this process.
This can happen when the body has been burned with acid.
I can't understand if
Harish's phone and car were found in Saputara, 300 kilometres away
then how did they hide his body in the mannequin in the restaurant.
You have a point.
If he wished, then he could have buried the body somewhere far away.
One thing is certain.
The person who has killed Harish
has killed Suraj too.
Maybe Suraj had found out who killed Harish.
And he's the one who killed Anjali too.
There is someone in the restaurant
who is playing these games.
Okay, let's keep an eye on the restaurant staff.
let's see which monkey will jump first.
Okay, you keep a watch on the restaurant
and I'll visit Suraj's crime scene once again.
I may find something there.
Suraj's body was found here.
And the phone was there.
This means he was coming from the direction of the restaurant.
Yes.
But, sir. The restaurant is four kilometres away from here.
That means, Suraj came running from there and the killer followed him.
And after that place, there is blood here.
It looks like this is the accident spot.
Suraj was hit by the vehicle here
and he flew and fell there.
That means the impact was here
and the body was tossed there.
There is no trace of blood between these two spots.
This only means
that he did not come on a bike or in a car from there.
He came walking.
It doesn't look like that, Sachin.
The restaurant is four kilometres from here.
The killer was following him,
he could have hit him anywhere in between.
This means that
Suraj was coming on a bike or in a car.
These blood stains are going towards the restaurant.
Let's follow this blood trail and see what we get.
Amazing. Father and daughter and shopping as if it is a festival.
There was a murder in their restaurant and they're not worried.
- Avni. - 'Ved is behaving the same way.'
'He's laughing and talking to some girl.'
'There's no tension about the restaurant murders.'
Pankaj.
I’ve been waiting since last night, but Mayank has not come out.
I hope he's not run away from the house last night.
No, sir. I asked the watchman.
He said Mayank has not gone anywhere since last night.
Purvi.
I've been waiting for the last five hours.
But I don't see Misha anywhere.
I'm getting her phone location traced.
Okay. Inform us once you find the location.
Look here, the accident happened here.
Look at this.
The light and the mirror of the bike is broken.
This means that Suraj's bike was hit at this spot.
Do you see the tyre marks here?
That means when the killer
might have
hit the bike here,
the tyre has dragged
on the impact.
So Suraj was hit twice.
The first time, his bike was hit
and when he ran on foot
he was finally hit there, where he was killed.
The tyre marks are in this direction.
If the bike was hit here,
then the bike should be somewhere here.
See if you find the bike anywhere.
Sir!
Yes, Sachin.
Look here, sir. The bike has been hidden behind the trees.
This is Suraj's bike.
After killing Suraj
the killer hid his bike here.
Green colour. The person who hit Suraj's bike
was driving a green coloured car.
We've found the first clue to reach Suraj.
Sir, Mayank and Misha's phone location is pointing to this place.
Looks like one more door is going to be sacrificed.
Mayank.
Sir, we thought Mayank was the killer. But someone has killed him.
Looks like Mayank was the killer's right hand.
He used to do all of his work.
The killer got rid of Mayank so that all the evidence will be washed out.
Hold on⋯ Sound⋯
Sir⋯ Here⋯
Oh, be careful. Bring her out.
Hold her. Slowly.
Lay her on the bed.
Please have this.
Misha, how are you feeling?
Are you okay?
Why are you looking scared?
What happened here?
Who locked you inside the closet?
I had come to meet Mr Mayank. I consider him my teacher.
After your questioning,
he was looking a little scared.
I would have never dreamt
that he would do something like this.
'Trust me, Misha. I did not want to do all this. But⋯'
'But, what?'
'But⋯'
'That night Harish found out the secret that he shouldn't have known.'
'He began following me.'
'Which secret?'
'Both of us'
'fought. And during that fight'
'he accidentally fell into a tub of acid.'
'Misha, you know me, you know what kind of a person I am.'
'I tried to save him.'
'But he had died by then.'
'I was told to hide his body after that.'
'But because of police checking'
'I couldn't go too far to bury his body.'
'I thought for one night'
'I will hide his body inside a mannequin.'
'And the next day I would hide it somewhere far away.'
'But Misha, the mannequin was not there in the godown the next day.'
'They had taken it to the restaurant.'
'That's why I had to hide like a thief'
'and go to the restaurant at night.'
'So that I could remove the corpse from the mannequin.'
'Little did I know that you and Anjali would be present there.'
'Anjali saw me.'
- 'And then⋯ - And then you killed her.'
'Shame.'
'I'm feeling ashamed to call you my teacher.'
'You killed not one'
'but two people.'
'Misha, I'm telling you the truth. Please believe me.'
'Neither did I want to kill Anjali, nor Harish.'
'But on whose saying did you do all this?'
'I can't tell you that. They are very dangerous.'
'They can kill you too.'
Just then someone rang the doorbell.
'He went to check who it was.'
'Maybe it was the same person'
'on whose directions he was doing all this.'
'Then he'
'locked me in the cupboard. I've been there ever since.'
Did you hear them talk while you were inside?
What were they talking about? Or did you hear any screams?
No, sir.
I was unable to breathe inside
and I fell unconscious after a while.
Uh⋯ Purvi, take her to the doctor.
Don't worry.
Sir, four people have died in this case, already.
If we don't do anything about it, God knows how many more people will die.
Let's search this house thoroughly.
Who was the killer that Mayank was working for?
We're sure to find the answer to that question here.
- Go and check. - Yes, sir.
- Sir. - Yes.
Sir, look at this. It was kept very safely hidden inside.
I'm sure there is something in this.
Key⋯
Huh?
The car that hit Suraj
should be somewhere here.
None of these cars are green in colour.
Nor does it look like they've been in an accident.
Oil leakage.
Looks like this car had an accident.
Green car beneath a blue car?
Oh!
The key belongs to this box.
And whatever was in this box was taken away by the killer.
There was something in this box because of which Suraj was killed.
Once we get hold of that,
then this puzzle will be solved in seconds.
Sir, four people have been killed because of the contents of this box.
God knows what was in this box that the killer went to this extent.
Whatever it was must have been important and valuable.
That's why the killer had to kill four people.
Yes, Sachin.
'Daya sir, I don't know where Abhijeet sir is.'
What do you mean by that? Is he not answering the phone?
'He had gone to that restaurant'
'to find out about the car that hit Suraj.'
'Since then, his phone has been switched off.'
Sir, I hope he's okay.
- Sir. - Yes.
Sir, I checked the full restaurant. I can't find Abhijeet sir.
I'm asking you one last time.
Where is Abhijeet? What have you done to him?
Sir, neither have we done anything to him or anyone else.
But tell us why did he barge in like this, at night?
Yes, sir. If he wanted to come in, he could have spoken to us and come.
We are cooperating with you.
Sir, I've found Abhijeet's sir's watch.
There is blood on this.
Sir, your officers
have scattered everything under the guise of searching.
I'm glad the truck carrying our pottery items left before you came.
Or else, you would break all that too.
What is this?
Is this how you drive?
Do you see the road with your eyes or nose?
Do you know how to drive the vehicle?
Hey, hero. I was about to have an accident because of you.
Are you yelling at me?
Hey, over-smart.
Talk properly. Or else, I'll break your hands.
- You'll forget how to drive. - Leave him, brother.
- Let him go. - Leave me alone.
- Go, get lost. - You get lost.
I won't spare you.
I'll pull you down and punish you.
- Go, get going. - Get off.
Good for you, I'm getting late.
Or else, I would give you a tough time.
Hey!
Leave him. Let's go.
Hey, get going.
- You don't know who I am. - Get going.
I've seen many people like you.
I've seen many people like you. Got it?
Many people came and many have gone. Leave me.
What amazing acting Daya sir did.
Just like a real goon.
Yes, Purvi.
Abhijeet sir must be on this truck.
We have to find Abhijeet at any cost before the truck reaches the jetty.
It will take just five minutes to reach the jetty.
Abhijeet sir.
Ow!
Sir, Abhijeet sir is not here.
But I found the secret due to which four people were killed.
What secret?
Sir, the pottery items that are in this truck
are being used to smuggle artefacts.
- Oh-ho. - Yes, sir.
So, this is the story.
Abhijeet.
Abhijeet!
Abhijeet.
You came to save your friend, right?
Unfortunately, along with him
you will also go to the heavens.
Oops! Not to the heavens, but down under the sea.
The fish are going to have a great time today
hunting you down.
Will the fish hunt us down, or will CID hunt you down?
We'll soon find that out.
What are you looking at? Tie up this bodybuilder.
Hey!
Will you come one by one? Or all at once?
How far will you run, Ved? Your game is over.
- Take care of these guys. - You can go, boss.
- Hey! - Hey⋯
Hmm?
Let me go. I said, let me go.
You won't be spared.
You don't know how far my reach is.
Please come, madam. Piping hot handcuffs
are waiting for you in the CID restaurant. Shall we go?
Look up. This way.
You have a hotel business to show the world.
Along with serving food to people
how did you think of looting the country's treasure?
Did you not feel ashamed to smuggle?
These idols are our country's treasure.
That was our plan.
To run a hotel and earn an honest living.
But the restaurant was running in a loss. So⋯
So your minds began working the crooked way.
Sir, my brother works in the museum.
With his help, we would remove some show pieces
and keep fake items in their place.
Everything was going as per your plan.
But things started going downhill
when Harish got a doubt on you.
'Harish was going to go to the police.'
'I tried to stop him.'
'When he did not agree, we got into a fight.'
'And in that scuffle'
'he fell into a tub of acid.'
I'm telling you the truth, sir. I had no intention of killing him.
You had no intention but you did kill him.
And then killed three more people.
Sir, as they say,
'To hide one crime, you have to do a hundred crimes.'
That's how we got caught in that marsh.
And Aman? What was his story?
Aman stole an idol
from my godown and hid it inside some box.
We found the box, but
we couldn't find the key.
And that's why you killed Mayank,
because he was coming in your way.
I don't know why
but he suddenly wanted to become an honest man, sir.
He told me everything.
Because he did not know
that you were drowning in this marsh of crime.
Sir, even I did not know
that he was a part of all this.
Ved would keep all the secrets to himself.
He would never tell me anything.
That means, when the doorbell rang that day
it was Ved at the door.
Then you cooked up the story that Mayank locked you in the cupboard.
However, the truth is, that both of you killed Mayank together.
You considered Mayank as your friend and teacher, right?
I really regretted it.
But if I would leave him alive
then sooner or later, he would speak out
in front of someone else.
You can regret it behind the bars
until the orders to hang you come.
