Horror Mysteries

Chapter 16 - Replying To The Attack

K: oh come on Mr. Shekhawat. Agar ye sab sach hai to kya aakhir k kuch scenes jhut honge?
V: I object your honour, sirf ye video dikhane se ye prove nahi hota ki mere client murderer hein. Waise bhi ye scenes clear nahi hein. Inse atleast ye to pata nahi chal raha hai kisne kisko dhakka diya.

Judge: Mr. Sharma kya apke paas koi aur proof hai?
K: yes your honour Mr. Shekhawat k PA Jignesh Patel.

Judge: par wo hein kahan?
J: main yahaan hun your honour aur ek aur gift laaya hun Mr. Bharadwaj k liye.

Judge: apko jo kehna hai witness box me aa k kahiye.
J: main nahi bolunga. Bolega koi aur.

J(to iyer murmering): dekh agar jhut bola na teri wife ko tere kamasutra ki puri history divorce papers k saath dunga.

I: your honour ye sach hai mere aur vid k bich me relations the.
V: no no Mr. Iyer, thik se boliye. Kaise relations?

I: wo wo. . . Fa fa
V: boliye Mr. Iyer. Ye kamine movie ki shooting nahi hai. We all are waiting.

I: physical relations.
N(shouting): ye jhut bol raha hai. Vid ne aisa kuch nahi kiya.

Judge: silence Mr. Bharadwaj. Proceed Mr. Rao.

K: kya main puchh sakta hun Mr. Rao ki ap prove kya karna chahte hein.
V: Mr. Sharma main ye kehna chahta hun ki agar wo Mr. Iyer k saath ye sab kar sakti hein to mere client Mr. Shekhawat k saath kyun nahi. Ye case sirf Mr. Iyer k saath nahi us sabke saath hein jinke naam ki list apke table pe hai. Har koi same statement dega. Mrs. Bhradwaj ne zabardasti ki mere client k saath jiski wajah se ye ladaai hui aur isi bich khincha taani me wo gir gayin aur unki death ho gayi.

K: lekin ye ap kaise keh sakte hein ki yahi hua tha?
R: aisa hi hua tha. Usne mujhe kuch pila diya tha. Mujhe to yaad bhi nahi hai ki kya hua tha.

K: to fir apne usi waqt police me kyun report nahi ki? Kyun unki body ko garden me bury kar diya? Your honour, main Mr. Jignesh ko witness box me bulana chahunga.
Judge: proceed.

Jiggy in witness box after taking pledge.

K: so Jignesh ap bataa sakte hein ki apne Mrs. Bharadwaj ki dead body ko kahan aur kaise dekha tha?
J: rd ki balcony k niche garden me.

K: body sidhi thi ya mu k bal giri thi?
J: ulti padi thi. Mu k bal.

K: point to be noted my lord. Body ulti padi thi matlab unhe dhakka diya gaya tha. Agar wo khud girtin to unki body sidhi girti kyunki suicide to unhone kiya nahi.
V: in that case your honour, body ki post motorn report aani chahiye aur kyunki dealth ko ek saal ho gaya hai. Unke body ka dna test hona chahiye ki ye unki body hai bhi ya nahi.

Judge: ye adaalat us dead body ko nikaal k uska dna test karne ka order deti hai. Aur kyunki atleast do din lag jaayemge is procedure k liye to court agle do din tak multabi ki jaati hai. The court is adjourned.

After departure.

K: ye date bekar ka try karna band karo vd. Tum jaante ho ki kuch haasil nahi hoga isse. Wo body vid ki hai ye main bhi jaanta hun aur tum bhi.
V(smirking): ye har koi jaanta hai ki ye body uski hai hai. Lekin sirf main ye jaanta hun ki maine ye time extend karne k liye kiya. Aur do din me to duniya badal jaati hai fir ye to case hai.

He winked at him and left leaving an irritated kabir behind.

K: do din ho ya char din use sazaa bhi hogi aur meri jeet bhi.
