'He is from the slums'

'Well versed in mantras'

'A core hater of the

VIP treatment'

'Ms Chinmayi'

'A women with high

regards for self'

'She single handedly organized a

farewell for the Indian military'

'The only common thing

between these 12'

'Each of them has either

risked their lives...'

'...or taken lives for the

goodwill of the society'

Attention please

As you all know

Our verdict is

going to be final

There shall be no

appeal thereafter

You guys may put forward

your suggestions

There are no conditions

But we have to arrive at a

verdict within the allotted time

So, are we going to discuss?

Or are we going to vote?

I guess we all know the verdict

Then why discuss and waste time

Let's cast our votes

and make a call

Only then everyone can leave

I can go home and eat

I just said what I felt

You don't feel

anything but hunger

- Now stop laughing

- Come on sir

Okay, so is everyone

ready to vote

Yeah

So let see who all are

voting the convict as 'guilty'

Seven, eight, nine,

ten and eleven

11 people

Where are all you off to?

- There are more formalities

- Is it?

Tell me about it

Anyone voting the convict

as 'Not guilty' ?

Not guilty

Oh no!

Come on now!

See now that's why we shouldn't

have youngsters in here

Well you can't avoid them

Avoiding him and avoiding his vote

are entirely two different things

A vote has claimed governments

A vote has also seen

fall of governments

That doesn't matter

Majority is what matters

Our debate is disharmony

in harmony...

But while deciding our

harmony is in disharmony

We got to follow the rules

The decision should be unanimous

Excuse me sir

Why opt for the messed up 'Not guilty'

option rather that the easy 'Guilty'?

Oh lord Narayana!

So do you really believe

the convict is innocent?

I don't know

I might believe it

I might not believe it

So looks like he made a mistake

Then why did you

vote 'Not guilty'?

Because...

11 for that

1 against

What do you mean?

What do you mean by 'against'?

I am against punishing her

If I too had voted 'Guilty',

the count would be 12

What then?

Verdict is done and we'll

all set off to our homes

Isn't that what judge

wanted us to do?

Phew!

Things are happening to fast

Don't you see?

Too quick

What do you mean?

We sat throughout her trial

We spent 3 months on

this ie 90 days

You say that is too fast?

If everyone decides

unanimously then it's over

If we all vote against

her, she'll be hanged

What next?

She is gone

Forever

Don't you understand?

Never do this

One word can take a life

Indeed! A life will be lost

So let be it

Why should she live?

To murder another

advocate of nonviolence?
