All language subtitles for [English] Case No.9 Episode 20 - [Eng Sub] - Presented by Happilac Paints - 27th November 2025 _ HAR PAL GEO [DownSub.com]

Yes, Mr. Bukhari?

Hello, Mr. Kamran, how are you?

Actually, I was thinking...

why don't you contact Ms. Sehar's ex...

ex-husband?

Why not reach out to him?

Why would I do that, Mr. Bukhari?

What good would come of it?

Since when have you started
weighing the pros and cons?

My thinking is,

if he were to release a statement
on social media,

even just a post...

saying he left Ms. Sehar because of
her poor character,

it would greatly benefit your case.

Mr. Bukhari, you heard her lawyer
in court, didn't you?

Going on about how a victim's rape
has nothing to do with her character.

Victim, my foot.

You do take things to heart.

Fine, maybe it has
no bearing in court...

but it certainly matters in
the court of public opinion.

What do you mean?

I mean that beyond the courtroom,
there's another court.

The court of public opinion...
the people's court...

the court of social media.

Why do I get the feeling

you're relying less on your legal
arguments and more on my...

underhanded tactics?

Well, desperate times call for
desperate measures, right?

I'm just trying to keep things light.

You know what they say,
two heads are better than one.

All that matters is that
we win this case.

So whether we play dirty
in the courtroom or out...

who cares about the method,
as long as we get results?

Hey, Muneeb.

Pop into my office
when you're free.

I want to discuss something.

Okay.

Noor?

Muneeb just went into
Mr. Kamran's office.

I'm sure those two are up to
something.

He probably just went
to talk about work.

If it were anything else,
we would've heard by now.

We know everyone in his department.

Say what you want,

but I know something fishy
is going on.

Nothing is going on.

You're just jealous of Muneeb.

Tell me something.

That social media campaign
we ran against Sehar...

there's no way anyone can
find out I was behind it, right?

No, no, sir, don't you worry.

Who posted it,
what account they used,

even which country it was posted from...
no one will ever find out.

Really?

Good work.

Thank you, sir.

I have another task for you.

I'm listening, sir.

Sehar's ex-husband...

I need some information on him.

That's not a problem at all, sir.

I should be able to find him among her
mutual friends on Facebook or Instagram.

Ah, good.

Get on it right away.

Bring me everything
you can find on him.

Sir...

why do you need this information?

Do not worry about the reason.
Ask me something else instead.

When will you have it for me, Muneeb?

I'll get on it right away, sir.
I'll get you all the information in a bit.

May I leave, sir?

Hmm.

Muneeb?

Yes, sir?

You see, I feel like we need to launch
another social media campaign against Sehar.

But your work is already done, sir.

And public opinion is on your side.

Yes, but it's losing steam.

That's a huge problem
in our country.

A new story breaks every other day,

and people just forget the old news.

If Sehar loses the case,
she'll be exposed on her own.

I think you're being
a little impatient, sir.

I called you here to give you a job,

not to listen to your opinion.

Sir, I work for you,

and it's my duty to advise you on
what's best for both you and the company.

And did it benefit me?

Forget what everyone else
is saying.

When people started taking
my side on social media,

even my own in-laws came
and stood by me.

Yes, sir.

That's because Sehar never responded
to the campaigns we ran against her.

But if she comes out and tells
her side of the story to the media this time,

it'll all backfire.

You're overdoing it, sir.

Well then,

I'll get all the information I can find
on Sehar's ex-husband for you.

Then?

What happened then?

The girl disappeared.

Thankfully, I was saved.

Otherwise, Kamran had everything
planned to sabotage my case.

God, I swear, he's such a
disgusting person.

He's completely lost it ever since
Beenish exposed him in court.

Then all the credit for
that goes to Ali.

Of course. You say that
as if you're his sister.

He did all the work,
so all the credit goes to him.

I'm just here doing nothing.

Oh, come on.

Just admit it.
He still loves you.

While I'm in court dealing with lawyers,

you're over here pleading Ali's case.

Just great.

Anyway, tell me
what your lawyer is saying.

Have your chances of winning
the case improved?

Beenish says...

look, she's not sure about
winning. But...

the chances of me losing have
definitely gone down.

It's because the Judge has
become suspicious of Kamran.

Then you just watch.

You will win this case.

But Kamran and his lawyer are
not the type to sit back quietly.

I'm sure they are still plotting
something against me.

You know,
truth is the antidote to every lie.

And you're on the side of truth,
my friend.

Thank you, I appreciate it.

-Sir.
-Hmm?

Any luck?

We’ve found Sehar's ex-husband, sir.

Who is he?

Ali?

Yes.

Ali...

Greetings, sir.

Ali, I need the details of
our Narken deal.

Of course, sir.
I'll bring them right over.

Are you in the office?

Not at the moment.

I've got a meeting to get to.
I'll be home in a couple of hours.

I'll text you my location,
so just meet me there, alright?

Okay, sir. I'll be there.

Hmm.

What?

Are you telling me, Ali...

Sehar's ex-husband was
working at your company,

right under your nose,
and you had no idea?

Mr. Bukhari, it's not as if
Ali is some famous actor

I was supposed to recognize on sight.

His CV was strong,

and we were desperate to fill
Sehar's position, so we hired him.

And you put the entire blame on me
when Shazia's plan backfired.

Just brilliant.

All while Ali was leaking information
to Sehar from right inside your office.

What's done is done.

I've called you here to figure out
if we can use Ali to our advantage.

Huh?

Use Ali? How?

Muneeb, tell them.

The same way Sehar used him
against Mr. Kamran.

Sehar thinks Ali is her mole.

What if we make him ours?

Hold on.

Despite being the ex-husband,

the man quit his own job like
a lovesick fool

to help his ex-wife and took
a job with her former employer.

Why on earth would a man so blinded
by love turn against her to help you?

Tell me, how?

Look, Mr. Bukhari,

there's a world of difference
between quitting one job for another

and having every door of opportunity
slammed in your face for good.

To a young man, unemployment
is a death sentence.

And I can use Ali's job
as my trump card.

Exactly.

Just let it go, Mr. Kamran.
It's pointless.

Come in.

Sir,

Mr. Ali from the office is here.

Alright, have him wait
in the other room.

I'll be there in a bit.

I'll be right back.

He'll never agree.
You're just asking for trouble.

We'll see about that.

Fine, go ahead.
I'll be on my way.

Where are you going?
Sit down, please.

If things work out with Ali
and he agrees to switch sides,

I'll bring him here.

Then we'll sit down
and cook up a strategy.

Mureed!

Mureed, make sure our guests
are well taken care of.

Sure.

And don't hold back
on the hospitality.

-Of course, sir.
-Understood?

Yes, sir.

Whatever you suggested
to your boss is utter nonsense,

and that's all there is to it.

Excellent work, Ali.

Truly excellent.

Thank you, sir.

Seriously, I have to give it to you.

You're far more talented than Sehar.

You've worked wonders in such
a short amount of time.

Hmm.

The very couch
you're sitting on today...

That's where Sehar was
sitting that day.

What's the matter?
Are you all right?

Why the death stare all of a sudden?

No, sir, not at all.

No?

All right, if you say so.

So, where was I?

Ah, right.

That day, Sehar was sitting right here,
on this very couch.

Aren't you going to ask which day?

-I'll take my leave, sir.
-Where do you think you're going?

I haven't finished my story.

What was I saying?

Ah, yes. That day,
while she was sitting on this couch...

she asked me to marry her.

I told her, "Are you insane?
I'm a married man."

She completely lost it.

She started screaming
and throwing a fit.

Then, out of nowhere,

her anger shifted towards
her ex-husband.

She started saying the most
bizarre things about him.

Said he wasn't a real man.

A good-for-nothing freeloader.

She began cussing out
his entire family.

Called him a man of low character.

What happened to you?

Huh?

Why are you getting so worked up?

You know her husband.
He's a friend of yours,

isn't he?

So, you finally found out.

The real marvel here
isn't that I found out.

The marvel is...

why it took me this long to find out.

Because you think you're so clever.

But you're not.

You pull these petty little stunts
to undermine Sehar...

and pat yourself on the back...

but every single one of your schemes
blows up in your face.

You shouldn't have
exposed Shazia, Ali.

Sehar and Beenish were
about to walk right into my trap.

You intervened and saved them.

Now...

you're going to pay
the price for that.

So, think it over.

Will you face the consequences...

or will you join forces with me?

Isn't it getting rather late?

Looks like the lovebirds
have made up.

Not made up.

They've struck a deal.

Cheers, Mr. Bukhari.

What can you possibly do to me?

A lot.

Or maybe... everything.

Your job, your career, your life...

I’ll ruin it all.

Unless...

you make a statement for me.

What kind of statement?

I paid Shazia five million rupees
for this job,

and now you are the one
who will finish it.

You'll have to release a statement
on social media...

that you divorced Sehar

because she was a woman
of loose morals. That's it.

You've got some nerve calling
anyone immoral.

And this is coming from the man

whose wife left him for
that very reason.

Yes, she did.

She left me.

But no one knows Sehar's character
better than I do.

That's enough.

Don't stand in my house
giving me speeches.

Just do as I say and
save your own skin.

Think with a clear head.
One decision, Ali...

One decision could change your life.

It's not my life that's about to change,
Kamran. It's yours.

This isn't some movie where,
after a divorce,

you just call the ex-husband to
drag her name through the mud.

Think about it.

Just name your price.

Your money probably won't be
of any use to you now.

Because you're going to jail.

I can't believe a disgusting person
like you is even a part of this society.

-You're a devil.
-Yes.

Yes. I'm a devil...
for everyone.

Until they need me.
And right now...

You need me.
So I'm your angel.

I work at your company.

I've only been there for a few days.

If I give this statement...

Sehar will just respond by saying
you made me do it in exchange for the job.

And this plan of yours will flop
even faster than the one with Shazia.

So that means...

you've come up with
a pretty foolproof plan.

Of course.

I'm smart enough for that.

Then listen.

I have no regrets about raping Sehar.

In this very house.

Right in the powder room where you
went to wash your hands when you arrived.

That's where I...

Get lost.

You've lost it.

You're standing in my house.

Get lost.

He didn't agree.

You never listen, do you?

I told you so...

Anyway, don't worry.

And you really shouldn't get angry at all.

I'm here, aren't I?

Enjoy.

Yes, Ali?

How are you, Sehar?

Is everything okay?

Yes, everything is fine.

No, you don't sound fine.
What is it?

Kamran knows everything, Sehar.

And?

And what else?

He fired me.

Ali, I told you not to do this.

What have you done?

I don't regret it.

Whatever I did was
the right thing to do.

Just...

don't you let that man
get away with this now.

He needs to be put behind bars.

You need to make him pay
for what he did to you, Sehar.

I will.

I surely will.

Just when I think Kamran
can't sink any lower,

he pulls another stunt.

He has a truly twisted mind.

Hmm.

But there's a silver lining in all this.

Kamran's getting rattled now,

and he wants to change
the direction of the case.

Sehar, even if your ex-husband
had testified against you,

his statement would have
held no weight in court.

In fact, that statement can't
even be repeated in court.

His three servants are
testifying against her.

What's your plan?

How are you going to
prove they're lying?

With questions.

I’ll prove they are lying with questions.

All the servants will just parrot
whatever Kamran tells them to say.

And I feel that after Mureed's testimony,

his lawyer will just prep them
even more thoroughly, don't you think?

What about Rohit?

Is he coming,

or is he still sticking to his guns?

Look, I've tried my best.

Just pray he doesn't get
swayed by Kamran again.

Rohit has to appear in court,
no matter what.

If he doesn't show,

I'll have to file a petition
under Section 540

to have him summoned as a witness.

He absolutely has to be there.

And if he still refuses,
will the court force him to?

Hmm.

The court will issue a warrant
and send the police.

Then, the police will arrest him
and bring him to court.

So, it would be best if you did
everything in your power

to make sure he shows up and
doesn't testify in Kamran's favor.

I’ll do everything I can.

Alright then. You send me
the bullet points, okay?

For now, that's all.

We'll have another meeting next week.

By the way,
just to let you all know,

I've fired Ali Jafri.

He was leaking our information
to our competitors.

But don't worry.

You all start preparing
for the next season.

We'll meet again next week. Alright?

Thank you, everyone.

Sir, I just need your signature
on some papers.

-Can we do this in a bit?
-Yes, sir.

Thank you.

-Kamran.
-Yeah?

Have a seat.
We need to talk.

What's this about?

Why did you fire Ali?

I just told everyone why.

You're the one who hired him,
and you're the one who fired him.

Have you bought out the whole
company or something,

making all the decisions
by yourself?

You and Kiran left me all alone.

So now, I have to make all
the decisions by myself, don't I?

Kamran, just be straight with me.

You can convince the others
with that lie,

but I know you better than that.

Ali Jafri...

was Sehar's ex-husband.

What?

Sehar planted him in our office.

And you still think
she's so innocent?

Look, Rohit,

her ex-husband is standing by her.

Manisha is supporting her.

Who do I have?

No one. I'm all alone.

But you're my friend.

You're the only hope I have left.

Yes, Mr. Kamran?

There's a big problem, Mr. Bukhari.

What have you done now?

Rohit has refused to testify in court.

Hold on. Are you telling me...

he's going to testify against you?

No, he would never do that.

All he cares about is
saving his marriage.

He's not about to torpedo
our business over this.

And what about your other witnesses?

They'll say exactly
what you told them to.

Goodbye.

Come on now,
let's read the next chapter.

Dad, when are we going on vacation?

We'll go...
during your summer holidays.

So why didn't we go last summer?

Because your mom and I were
both swamped at our offices. That's why.

But I promise, we are definitely
going this summer.

Okay.

Madam, would you like me
to serve lunch for you?

No, I'm not hungry.

-Just give this to Mehreen, please.
-Of course, Madam.

So, has Sehar started pulling
the same tricks Kamran does?

What's that supposed to mean?

Sehar deliberately planted
her ex-husband in our company.

We were completely
in the dark about it.

That's not true at all.

Sehar didn't even know Ali had
started working for your company.

Oh, really?

Yes... Really.

And you want to know why?

Because Sehar is nothing
like Kamran.

I will speak the truth and
nothing but the truth.

I will speak the truth...

...and nothing but the truth.

If I lie...

...or conceal anything from this court...

...or conceal anything from this court...

...may God's wrath be upon me.

Maqsood Bhatti.

You're from Rahim Yar Khan,
is that correct?

Yes. Yes, ma'am.
I'm from Rahim Yar Khan.

When was the last time
you went back to your village?

About four or five months ago.

Were you at the home of the accused,
Kamran, on the night of the incident?

Yes, I was, madam.

And how long have you been
employed at Mr. Kamran's home?

I've been working for him
for five years.

What did you observe on
the night of the incident?

Not much, really.

First, this lady came over,
and then his friend arrived.

She left after a little while,
and then his friend left too.

Did you hear any fighting?
Any screams?

No, I didn't hear a thing.

When my client,
Sehar, arrived,

did you see her?

Did you see Ms. Sehar that night?

No, I didn't see her.

I cooked dinner and
went to my room to sleep.

I was very tired.

So, after preparing the dinner,
you must've set the table as well?

No, madam. I didn't.

That's Farzana and Mureed's job.

So it didn't occur to you to wonder
what was going on inside?

No, madam, we didn't think
anything of it.

By we, you mean who exactly?

Um,

I mean, Farzana and I.

Maqsood had already gone
to his room...

to sleep.

He was tired.

What did you witness
on the night of the incident?

I didn't see anything.

I only heard it.

Is that so? What?
What did you hear?

I heard the sounds of people
fighting angrily.

So when you heard
the sounds of a fight,

you didn't go inside to see
what was going on?

No, madam.

Madam Kiran and Sir get into
such arguments, too.

But we don't go unless
they call for us.

So Farzana and Mureed didn't tell you
a fight was going on?

No, I didn't speak with them
that night.

Why not?

Weren't they home?

They were home,
but I never saw them.

Who was at dinner that night?

There were two people.

Ms. Sehar and Mr. Kamran.

How many different voices
did you hear?

Three.

I heard three people arguing.

Mr. Kamran...

Mr. Rohit...

and Ms. Sehar.

Then how did you find out
about the incident?

What incident are you referring to?

Oh, the fight.

Farzana told me about it
the next day.

So why didn't you inform
the cook, Maqsood?

Well, one doesn't share everything
with everyone, madam.

Besides, Mureed and
I get along just fine.

We've been working in this house
for a very long time.

Maqsood only started recently.

Do you remember
what you cooked that night?

The food...

It's been a while, I don't recall.

I suppose I cooked whatever
Mr. Kamran asked me to.

I see. So it was Mr. Kamran
who told you what to cook,

not Ms. Kiran?

Ms. Kiran was at her parents' house.

She was pregnant at the time.

How long before the incident had
she gone to her parents' house?

Pardon?

A day before?
Two, three, four days?

Or do you not remember that either?

Three.
It was three days before.

Three days prior.

Alright.

Tell me this.

Whenever there's a dinner party,

who usually gives you the instructions?
Ms. Kiran, or the defendant, Kamran?

Ms. Kiran does.

And who gets the groceries?

I do, madam.

So on this occasion,
Ms. Kiran didn't call to tell you

what to make or
what groceries to buy?

No... No, madam.

She didn't.

That day, Mr. Kamran was the one
who told me everything.

Has the defendant, Kamran,
ever done that before?

No, he has not.

Point to be noted, Your Honor.

What the defendant did that day was
completely out of the ordinary for him.

That's because his wife
had never been pregnant

and away at her parents' house before.

The defendant, Mr. Kamran,
invited the guests

under the pretense that his wife had
arranged the dinner, Mr. Bukhari.

Your Lordship, my client was
under the impression

that his wife would be home
before the party started.

Your Honor,

Ms. Kiran only told the defendant
about this dinner party,

not the servants.

Usually, Ms. Kiran communicates
directly with the staff

about the menu and the groceries.

That did not happen this time.

And Maqsood has already testified

that Ms. Kiran had left for her parents’
home three days before this incident.

Your Honor, the prosecution
counsel is like a broken record.

I fail to understand

why she insists on repeating
the same point over and over again.

Your Honor,

the defense counsel is obstructing
my cross-examination

and interrupting
my line of questioning.

Mr. Bukhari, take your seat.

Of course, Your Lordship.

Mr. Maqsood,

where in the house
were you interrogated?
