Black Friday Page #3

Synopsis: A dramatic presentation of the bomb blasts that rocked Bombay on March 12, 1993, displays the police investigation, amidst allegations of human rights violations, led by DCP Rakesh Maria, in tracking down the suspects, especially Bashir Khan. Bashir managed to elude authorities by re-locating to Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, and West Bengal, after finally being apprehended in Bombay. His confession and subsequent flashbacks showcases the apathy shown by authorities who refused to intervene during the destruction of the sacred Babri Masjid by Hindu Kar Sevaks, and the inability of the police to fulfill their mandate and protect the vulnerable, forcing many to flee to other locations.

I swear I don't...

Move back! Move back! - Sit! Sit!

You're his father? Make

him understand.

He's lying to me!

- Just tell him the truth.

I am telling you the truth,

nothing else.

Put the old man in a taxi.

We'll serve the rest some tea.

Come on old man, you have

money for the taxi? Okay, then go.

You all wait. You go home.

Shut the door

Tell me.

Tell me quickly.

I didn't know what was

going to happen...

Everything was in place by the

time I was brought in on it.

Start from the beginning

- On February 11...

Tiger bhai and Javed

Chikna went to Dubai

Who is Javed Chikna?

- Tiger bhai's man

Why did they go to Dubai?

- I have no idea.

I got a call instructing me...

To get half a million from Chauksi

and give it to Dawood Phanse...

Who is Chauksi?

Tiger bhai has three Hawala

accounts with him

Who else?

- Javed Chikna

You said that already

Anwar Theba, Shafi, Abdul Gani...

Imtiaz Ghavate, Parvez Sheikh...

Parvez Sheikh, Salim...

Mohammed Rafique...

Mohammed Hussain...

Salim Rafique Mohammed Hussain?

Salim Rafique Madi and

Mohammed Hussain.

Sir, I had no idea.

My father was ill.

I wanted to leave, get another job.

I told Tiger bhai but

he got so angry...

...and the terrible

things he said...

...he told me to wait for him.

Then? Did he come?

The first week of the month.

Then he disappeared again.

Suddenly I got a call...

It was Holi, March 8...

He told me to get tickets

done for Dubai...

His father, Ayub bhai,

Yakub bhai...

Suleiman bhai... all of them left.

A day before the blast

there was a call.

They said they want

tickets for Dubai.

This is time he asked for a ticket

only for himself.

I tried to talk about

quitting my job.

He hadn't paid me since the riots.

Tiger bhai, I need to talk

to you... - Ticket's done?

Yes of course.

Tiger Bhai. I really

need to talk to you.

Get my suitcases. Yes.

Ramzan has begun and

my father is ill...

Get the bags, will you?

I have to quit.

Just one more day. - One more, one

more, it goes on. Tiger bhai...

...this one more day has

taken a long time.

Look there's a lot of work.

I'm going to Dubai.

Do something...

Go to Al Hussaini. You'll find

Theba and Chikna there.

I've spoken to them. You just have

to drop a car off somewhere.

Do that then you can leave.

When I reached there I

couldn't find anybody.

I met Sardar, who was

going out for a smoke.

There was work going

on in the garage.

Maruti vans, scooters,

it was all there.

They were packing some sticky

black paste into the...

scooters and the cars.

Hey idiot! That's not bathing soap.

Keep it separately.

What is that?

RDX, sir. They call

it 'black soap'.
