Original subtitles

[soldier] We are scanning the ground floor, over.

There's no one here in Sector Five.

Over and out.

34GMD for command, we found the sign. Over.

[over radio] Copy 34GMD. Move ahead.

Copy.

SANCTUARY

Any movement, soldier? Over.

Sir...

I can see someone up ahead.

[over radio] Who is it, Captain?

Difficult to identify.

[shadowy figure] They are all dead.

Everyone is dead.

[soldier] Put your hands up.

Put your hands up!

Everyone is dead.

[over radio] Is that our target, Captain? Over.

- I don't know, sir. - [over radio] We want him alive.

You hear me, Captain? Alive.

Sir!

He's hiding something in his shawl.

- It could be a bomb, sir! - Hold!

Everyone is dead.

Stop.

Stop where you are right now.

They are all... all dead.

Stop where you are!

They are all dead.

All dead.

Hold. Hold!

Where's Ali Saeed?

Ali Saeed?

There... back there.

Target sighted.

It's him.

It's Ali Saeed.

[over radio] Copy that. Proceed with caution.

Moving in.

[soldiers yelling]

ক্যাপ্টেন।

I want to ask you something.

There's something I need to know.

But you'll have to come closer.

[whispers] Tell me...

Where is...

[man] I wish you had seen it...

...with your own eyes, Nida.

They came into our neighborhood and threw us out of our homes.

[soldier] Under the moral re-conditioning campaign

that started on the first of May,

all citizens are hereby ordered to surrender

harmful and prohibited items to us.

Strict action will be taken against those

found not co-operating with us.

[man] Whatever they could find, they took it all away.

Our ancestral things, our books.

The reason they gave us was...

...that this was anti-national.

They said our books are corrupting their beliefs.

Tell me, what are these people going to achieve by burning children's books?

First they shut down the universities, and now the schools.

This is seditious literature.

What you're doing is a crime. It is treason.

Crime?

They raid our homes in the middle of the night.

And they take innocent people away in the name of re-conditioning.

And I'm committing a crime?

You really think so?

[woman] We haven't done anything wrong!

[soldier] Stop it. Come on, get in that van.

[woman] Where are you taking him?

[man 2] Why are you punishing us like this?

- বাবা! - থামুন!

Let my husband go. He's innocent. Stop!

Please. No!

Don't do this to us.

বাবা!

বাবা!

[woman] Stop!

দয়া করুন

The people who are taken away are not innocent people.

The force only takes away those who are in need of re-conditioning.

Re-conditioning.

Nida, you are so naive that you don't...

...you don't see what exactly is going on in our country.

And you seem to have gone crazy.

The government just wants what's good for us.

Somehow our community has always been misguided. Brainwashed.

But you just don't seem to want to understand that.

And what about all the things that I taught you?

Gave you a good education.

I gave you everything.

Gave you morals...

...a good upbringing. Was that all wrong?

I made a mistake.

Should've gone back to the academy alone.

নিধা....

- Look... - Yeah, don't worry, I'll handle it.

থামুন।

My. my books.

Calm down, Abbu.

The problem is not just the books, Nida.

In my bag there are lecture notes for my students as well.

You mean to say, you've been teaching stuff

that's not part of the syllabus again?

There's a limit to this stupidity, Abbu.

[officer] Show me your ID.

শাহনেওয়াজ রহিম।

হ্যা।

Come on, step out.

- কেনো? - আমরা আপনার গাড়ি সার্চ করবো।

- কিন্তু কেনো? - আব্বু।

[Nida's father] This is...

- ...this is religious profiling. - Abbu!

If there is anything...

...that you are hiding from us,

it'll be good for you to tell us about it right now.

It's my right, my constitutional right,

to go anywhere I want in this country.

[officer] What are you hiding in the car? Weapons?

Contraband?

Or have you got beef in the car? Huh?

Hold on.

This is my father and he's dropping me back to the academy, okay?

Ma'am, you...

- You are from the Protection Squad? - Advanced Interrogation.

Now let him go.

Come on, Abbu.

Let's go.

দুঃখিত, ম্যাম..... দুঃখিত, স্যার।

Hey, move aside. Let... let them go.

Come on, hurry up.

[man] The enemy has not yet been completely defeated.

External powers.

Ideologies.

There are some people amongst us who are influenced by these things...

...who are spreading terrorism.

To eliminate such traitors, the government has put in place

some extremely tough policies.

An example of these policies...

...is this academy.

By the recent terrorist attacks on our country...

...we have come to realize one thing:

That the traitors are...

...not outside...

...but they are amongst us...

...those who get brainwashed.

Anyone could be a terrorist.

আমাদের প্রতিবেশী...

...আমাদের বন্ধু।

[Nida's father] Now you've seen everything with your own eyes.

You saw it, didn't you, Nida?

Just look at the audacity of these people.

না!

They will have to pay a price for this.

They will have to pay a price.

We will make them. We will.

Therefore, it's your responsibility...

...to look out for illegal activities...

...anything that looks suspicious,

and report it to your seniors. That's what you are here for.

Even if the person in question is a family member.

From now on, your friend...

...your family, is only your country.

Long live...

[cadets]...our Motherland.

[soldier] We've entered the target's house, over.

নিধু...

[Nida's father] I... I demand to know the reason...

for which you have arrested me.

You have to give me an answer.

It's my right, it's my fundamental right.

No, you don't have any rights.

কি?

দেখো....

...I have not committed any crime.

I'm sure there's been some kind of misunderstanding.

There's definitely some confusion.

Alright, just call my daughter.

She's a member of the NPS.

Why don't you call her?

Phone her. The moment she's here, everything will get sorted out.

Come on. Call her.

You're being unfair to me.

How can I clear this misunderstanding, this confusion?

Sir, they will let him go soon, right?

Yeah.

It does take a little time though,

...to make an intellectual understand.

To turn him into an ideal citizen.

হ্যা, স্যার।

Why don't you people understand what I'm saying!

I'm telling you, just call my daughter.

She'll come here and sort out everything.

নিধা৷

Please listen to them and do as they say.

- No, no, no, Nida! Just listen to me. - Abbu, you have to listen to them

so that you can come home quickly, Abbu.

You are making a mistake, Nida. What you are doing is wrong.

[soldier] Take him away.

Wait, Nidu... Nidu.

[Nida's father] You people have stolen my daughter from me.

নিধু!

[man] Miss Nida Rahim, your father is doing very well

in his re-conditioning process.

During on-going investigations, new information has come to light

which is of utmost importance to national security.

And that's the reason why you are

being taken out of your current training with immediate effect.

One more thing, this assignment is on the orders of

Lieutenant Colonel Sunil Dacunha, and is extremely confidential.

Colonel Dacunha for command, over.

[soldier] Sir, Nida Rahim is joining duty from today.

ওভার

And the package? Over.

It will arrive tonight.

Over and out.

Chawla, get a welcome team ready for Rahim.

- ইয়েস, ম্যাম। - না, না, না।

No welcoming team.

Process her as a new recruit.

Add her to the roster.

And familiarize her with the place first.

She can help us with the interrogation.

- ইয়েস, স্যার। - কি?

Colonel, all the information that we have on this new recruit, Nida Rahim...

...and about her religion...

...wouldn't it be better to stop playing these games

and extract as much information from her as soon as we can?

But on what grounds do we question her loyalty?

All her past records are clear.

But sir, she is connected with what's going on.

But how?

How can we know for sure?

We'll do it my way.

[Nida] I'm a patriot.

And it is my duty to defend my country.

My mission is to crack down on the enemies of my country.

No matter what?

No matter what.

Meghdoot 31 welcomes you here. Welcome.

ধন্যবাদ, ম্যাম।

Now come on, I'll show you around the place.

Your religion... won't be a problem, will it?

No. Why, ma'am?

There happen to be a lot of Muslims

in the groups that we are fighting against at the moment.

These people think they're Muslim, ma'am.

But Islam forbids the murder of innocent men, women, and children.

These prisoners here are nothing but murderers... and terrorists.

The Colonel says that the music keeps the work stress under control.

So that's why music from black and white movies plays on loop day and night.

All the windows in the cantonment are blacked out.

So that any civilians on the outside shouldn't be able to look inside.

And the prisoners on the inside won't be able to tell what time it is.

But along with that, it also affects our body clock in a big way.

So the sooner you adjust, the better it'll be for you.

স্যার।

This is our prison entrance.

The only way to get in and out of the prison.

Not very high-tech, pretty simple.

But sometimes simple is the best.

This facility was built soon after the First Emergency.

To be used as a bunker in a nuclear attack.

It's a totally self-sustaining underground city.

But this place has never been used before.

There's no mention of this place in government records, too.

No information at all.

Therefore, for our mission, this is the perfect place.

Come.

Currently there are five prisoners...

...and eleven soldiers.

Oh sorry... twelve.

Why are there so few prisoners?

No permission to keep anyone in custody

for more than three weeks.

It's a government rule.

Hey, speechless boy.

Wanna eat some meat?

Speak up!

You broke him too soon.

Yeah... kind of.

Why isn't he kept in a cell like the rest of the prisoners?

- Because he's still on the active list. - Because he hasn't opened his mouth yet.

[Chaudhary] This bastard's name is Ahmed.

Looks pretty harmless, but the son of a bitch's hiding something.

[prisoner] Ma'am?

It's cold. Can you give me a blanket?

Come on.

[prisoner humming]

Our main interrogation chamber.

Every prisoner is given a free tour of this room. You know, induction.

Interrogating officer Mathur.

Uh... Babloo.

রাহিম...

...it's now time to meet the Colonel. Come.

At ease.

Have a seat.

ধন্যবাদ, স্যার।

So...

...how did you like the guided tour...

...with our finest interrogating officer?

Was it nice?

Sir, to be face to face and report to you directly

as a commanding officer is such an honor.

Go on, you can ask.

স্যার।

Look, it's my job to study human behavior, Officer.

So don't worry.

Sir, I still have five whole weeks of my training left to go, so...

...this sudden posting...

...কেন? স্যার।

In the Advanced Interrogation course you are the highest scorer.

And also consistently, the top performer of your class.

But going beyond your duty, what you've done...

...the huge sacrifice that you have made

by informing us about your father and helping us arrest him...

...for all civilians and officers, it's a... brave example.

ধন্যবাদ, স্যার।

Ali Saeed Al Yacoub?

[Nida] The leader of the United People's Front?

হুমম।

He'll be here today.

That monster.

All these prisoners rotting here...

...he's their last unit member.

আলী সায়িদ...

Confessions.

This is the result of our interrogation techniques and years of hard work.

All kinds of terrorists...

...student protesters...

...opposition party leaders,

religious fanatics.

Dangerous anti-nationals.

I want to see one more confession in there.

Ali Saeed's.

You have been posted here to get a confession out of him.

- হ্যা স্যার। - And remember...

...to feel pity for him or compassion...

...or even to feel guilty,

are signs of weakness.

We are not just doing our duty, we are protecting our country.

বুঝতে পেরেছি, স্যার।

ভালো।

It was very nice meeting you.

স্যার।

Report for duty, Rahim. Right now.

It's really very foolish to trust this woman.

She is a suspect and you know that, sir.

I've already decided.

She should be thrown behind bars with the rest of them.

এটাই আমার চুড়ান্ত সিদ্ধান্ত...

And now it's an order for you.

Just go do it.

You started pretty early today, sir?

I just want to talk to her once, that's all.

Please, just once.

Prerna, why are you doing this to me?

Listen, it's raining really hard...

...and I've got through with great difficulty.

I just want to hear her voice once.

Just for one minute.

হ্যালো, হ্যালো?

[reporter] In the last few years, Ali Saeed Al Yacoub

has emerged as the most dangerous and the most powerful voice

against our beloved government.

The most horrific bomb blasts that have taken place in our country in the...

Hey, just be careful.

দুঃখিত ।

Don't you think after all that...

...after all that we did to Ahmed,

if he really knew anything, he would've confessed right then and there?

We had agreed that we wouldn't talk about this ever again.

But I want to talk about it.

What if his being here is a mistake, then?

And what if he's an innocent man?

No prisoner here is innocent.

Their whole goddamn breed is guilty.

All of them are fucking monsters.

That bastard Ahmed...

...he's making a fool out of all of us.

He's not a fucking mute, understand?

He's hiding something, for sure.

Don't let them mess with your head, alright?

We are only doing our duty, that's it.

[officer] Prisoner Ali Saeed is about to reach Meghdoot 31 Command, over.

He's about 2 kilometers away. Over.

- [alarm wails] - [Dacunha] Attention.

A new prisoner is about to arrive.

I need the welcome team at the main gate within 10 minutes.

Chaudhary...

...Gupta... and Rahim.

You three are going to be on first rotation, clear?

Chaudhary, if you lose control one more time,

you'll be court martialed straight away, do you understand?

- I did nothing wrong. - Mmm.

- লিম্বা। - ইয়েস, ম্যাম?

Is everything alright with the Colonel?

ম্যাম?

Isn't he drinking too much these days?

I don't think this is the right time, Ma'am.

না।

না।

I was just checking, that's all.

It wouldn't be good, would it?

If anyone were to start having doubts about his judgement.

Is there anybody who has doubts about his judgement?

Back in line, Captain.

Our work here is not easy.

Breaks even the best of us.

That's something our new recruit is about to find out.

This is a trial by fire for you, isn't it, Rahim?

This is your big opportunity to prove your loyalty.

Dismissed!

How can you question the Colonel's judgement in front of the whole unit?

I'm not the only person here, Lamba,

who's asking these kinds of questions about him.

Are you keeping an eye on him?

We sure as hell are, and very diligently.

It shouldn't be like he screws up, and we have to pay the price for it.

Ali Saeed.

No.

Ali Saeed.

Impossible.

Ali Saeed is coming.

They'll never be able to capture him alive.

Parthiva? Do you really think they have caught him?

There's not a single soldier on duty down here.

Has that ever happened?

It's him, I know.

Ali Saeed cannot be caught.

It's not possible for anybody to trap someone like him.

এটা সম্ভব।

But only if... he himself wanted this,

and he then planned his own capture.

Look, all I know is that...

..it was that miserable son of a bitch

who was the last person to meet him.

Show some mercy, Rajan.

That kid in there is going through hell right now,

the kind that you can't even imagine.

Sir. There's heavy flooding on the roads.

I don't know how I'll get back.

- সেনা, সাবধানে। - জি, স্যার।

Come on. Give me the pen.

Sir, he doesn't talk much, but when he starts talking, sir-

- Open up. - ইয়েস, স্যার।
