It is a miracle I was able to secure your |
00:21:40 |

00:21:52 |

00:35:47 |
Don't worry! |
00:35:49 |
You are looking very pretty |
00:35:51 |
I don't even know him! |
00:35:53 |
You don't need to |
00:35:55 |
He is my brother-in-law's friend in London |
00:35:57 |
He will take good care of you |
00:35:59 |
But sister... what about my education? |
00:36:02 |
Who's stopping you? |
00:36:04 |
He doesn't mind |
00:36:42 |
It is the copy of pathalogy report |
00:36:45 |
in regards to deceased, Deepak Alavadia |
00:36:47 |
Could you tell the court what you found? |
00:36:50 |
There were trace emelents of other chemicals and oils |
00:36:54 |
mixed in with the patrol poured over victim |
00:36:57 |
chiastic soda it caused the reactions |
00:36:59 |
similiarthat of the |
00:37:01 |
In what way? |
00:37:02 |
It caused the liquid too stick to |
00:37:03 |
the victim's flesh |
00:37:05 |
and keep burning for a longer period of time |
00:37:07 |
In fact it cooked the flesh right over his bones |
00:37:11 |
Thank you docotr |
00:37:13 |
Your honour with your permission |
00:37:16 |
Granted! |
00:37:44 |
Shiela Alavadia.. you have been called |
00:37:48 |
Mrs. Alavadia.. how would |
00:37:51 |
She is very elegant, always order Deepak around |
00:37:55 |
The defence has made statment that your son |
00:37:58 |
assaulted the defendant on many occasions |
00:38:00 |
Did you witness any of these alleged |
00:38:03 |
attacks? |
00:38:06 |
If the oil isn't hot enough |
00:38:08 |
Fritters burn outside but remain uncooked inside |
00:38:11 |
It's that simples |
00:38:17 |
What are you doing here? |
00:38:20 |
You embarrass yourself |
00:38:23 |
Shut up, bitch |
00:38:25 |
Mom... he cheats me |
00:38:27 |
He is going out with a white woman |
00:38:29 |
Her boyfriend has been making threatening calls |
00:38:36 |
Have you gone mad? |
00:38:37 |
You will kill her! |
00:38:39 |
Leave her... Do you want to kill her? |
00:38:46 |
No.. I didn't see anything |
00:38:54 |
Mom... Didn't you son moving herto your home |
00:38:56 |
leaving the defendant with small children |
00:38:59 |
for a brief time early this year |
00:39:01 |
But she drive him away |
00:39:02 |
Right |
00:39:04 |
Because she was arrogant, demanding even. |
00:39:07 |
She used to treat Deepak like a servant |
00:39:09 |
My Lord.. defence has submitted a copy of letter C |
00:39:12 |
written by care to her husband when he |
00:39:14 |
left his past March |
00:39:16 |
It was originally Punjabi, but it has been translated |
00:39:18 |
into English for exhibit |
00:39:20 |
Would you please read the highlighted portion? |
00:39:28 |
my English is not good |
00:39:33 |
Allow me then |
00:39:36 |
Deepak |
00:39:38 |

00:39:42 |
I wouldn't drink black coffee, I wouldn't watch T.V. |
00:39:45 |
The children needs you.. |
00:39:49 |
Mrs. Alavadia... Do these sound like the words |
00:40:06 |

00:40:15 |
But what? |
00:40:28 |
So what do you want to me? |
00:40:54 |
Before you! |
00:40:57 |
It is yourturn now |
00:41:03 |
You were the first on the night of question |
00:41:05 |
Correct! |
00:41:06 |
Yes mom! |
00:41:08 |
How would you define the defendant to met when |
00:41:13 |
I am sorry... I don't understand the question |
00:41:17 |
I will ask again! |
00:41:20 |
When you first encountered Mrs. Alavadia that night... |
00:41:24 |
Would you describe herto me as alert and attentive or |
00:41:26 |
perhaps dazed and incoherent |
00:41:32 |
She seemed lucid and aware of her surroundings |
00:41:38 |
He is lying! |
00:41:45 |
That will be all, constable |
00:41:51 |
Dr. Stillman, where do you currntly practice medicine? |
00:41:53 |
I currently have my own practice in greenpark |
00:41:55 |
And previously |
00:41:57 |
Two years at the Housten Emergency Center |
00:42:00 |
Do you recognize the defendant? |
00:42:04 |

00:42:11 |
Okay |
00:42:13 |
Now try rotation from the shoulder! |
00:42:20 |
It is okay I am just going to check your site |
00:42:31 |
Okay... the good news is that nothing has broken |
00:42:33 |
But you will have to wrap on your wrist and |
00:42:38 |
You said this happened in a fall |
00:42:43 |
Yes... |
00:42:54 |
I understand! |
00:42:57 |
Mr. Alavadia I was wondering to you wife's site |
00:43:01 |
Is that really necessary? |
00:43:11 |
We have to pick up our son from my mother's |
00:43:13 |
Look I really think you will be abased |
00:43:16 |
Mrs. Alavadia... is there anything that you want to tell me? |
00:43:21 |
No... |
00:43:28 |
Docotor... Do you still believe that defendant |
00:43:32 |
Yes... I do |
00:43:35 |
Thank you... No further question |
00:43:40 |
You have to, Kiran |
00:43:43 |
My English is not good |
00:43:46 |
They will laugh |
00:43:47 |
No one is going to laugh on you. |
00:43:52 |
Look... I am running out of options |
00:43:54 |
At this time our best hope is to put you on the stand |
00:43:56 |
in hope that jury is sympethetic to you |
00:44:02 |
I cannot! |
00:44:05 |
It is too shame |
00:44:09 |
What, shame.. Too shamefull |
00:44:13 |
Is that you were ashamed? |
00:44:15 |
Deepak was the one who should be ashamed? |
00:44:17 |
Not you... It is not yourfault |
00:44:20 |
Council forthe defence... |
00:44:34 |
Defence rest... Your honour |
00:44:36 |
Very well! |
00:44:38 |
Members of the jury you may now retire |
00:44:41 |
and consider all the evidence in the case |
00:44:43 |
You heard statements that the victim, Deepak Alavadia |
00:44:47 |
did on ocassion inflict bodily injury on the defendant |
00:44:52 |
However, it would appearthat none of |
00:44:54 |
these injury was of the highest severity |
00:44:58 |
What rubbish? |
00:45:00 |
Silence! |
00:45:04 |
Any more of this and I will have the |
00:45:08 |
The fact that the most recent incident took |
00:45:12 |
before she poured all patrols overthe deceased |
00:45:16 |
and then ignited it with a nugget flame |
00:45:19 |
This alone is reason not to consider either a plea |
00:45:22 |
of self defence or provokation |
00:45:26 |
If you cann't reach a unanimous decision |
00:45:28 |
I will accept a majority verdict |
00:45:32 |
Court will now adjourned while the jury delibrates |
00:45:35 |
It might not be today, but could be |
00:45:44 |
You could still go either way |
00:45:51 |
It doesn't matter |
00:45:54 |
What? |
00:46:00 |
I made a sin |
00:46:07 |
I must beaten |
00:46:13 |
Has the jury reached the verdict? |
00:46:15 |
Yes, my Lord |
00:46:17 |
Defendant will rise |
00:46:22 |
Did the jury find the defendant guilty or.. |
00:46:25 |
not guilty of one counter murder? |
00:46:28 |
Guilty! |
00:46:34 |
Order... |
00:46:36 |
or I will charge you with contempt! |
00:46:40 |
Silence! |
00:46:43 |
Kiran Alavadia you have been found guilty of a murder |
00:46:47 |
I hereby sending you to life imprisment |
00:46:52 |
Court is adjourned! |
00:47:06 |
I am sorry! |
00:48:09 |
Hey.. |
00:48:43 |
Why? |
00:49:07 |
Here we are... |
00:49:12 |
and for one hour |
00:49:22 |
Hi lovely to see you |
00:49:26 |
You are one crazy white woman |
00:49:46 |
Jesus... |
00:49:54 |
Kiran... She is my friend! |
00:49:58 |
We have Jackie |
00:50:00 |
We have met |
00:50:05 |
This is lovely Luilla |
00:50:07 |
Lovely Luilla works in canteen |
00:50:09 |
so next time you need something special |
00:50:12 |
and she will arrange |
00:50:13 |
Vegetarian... Right |
00:50:15 |
Don't worry I will take care of you |
00:50:18 |
Put some meat on that |
00:50:22 |
And lastly, but leastly, we have Gladys |
00:50:26 |
Screw you too Ronni |
00:50:28 |
She is a good clean girl and we love |
00:50:38 |
I think I should leave |
00:50:42 |
No... |
00:50:56 |
Why are you here? |
00:50:58 |
so it is obvious I have a bit of |
00:51:05 |
How do you think she miss him? |
00:51:10 |
And you? |
00:51:12 |
Ronni is very brave... She stabbed her husband |
00:51:16 |
Why? |
00:51:24 |
I told him if he raised his hand on me again! |
00:51:27 |
It will be his last time |
00:51:29 |
Because he doubted my sencerity! |
00:51:35 |
And you are not sorry |
00:51:38 |
No... neither when I did it 8 years ago |
00:51:45 |
Don't even ask about Gladys |
00:51:52 |
Just because I didn't want to wash my dirty |
00:52:02 |
How are you doing? |
00:52:05 |
I can sleep better now |
00:52:07 |
Getting use to to new place |
00:52:09 |
Right! |
00:52:11 |
Listen... The reason I wanted to talk |
00:52:13 |
the judges handed down yourtariff |
00:52:16 |
You will be eligible to be rolled in 12 years |
00:52:26 |
Kiran... Are you there? |
00:52:29 |
So long! |
00:52:32 |
The last six months of your remand will count towards it |
00:52:42 |
I will not able to see my songs for so long |
00:52:45 |
I am so sorry |
00:52:50 |
I was there for every day of yourtrial |
00:52:53 |
I was upset the way everything went |
00:52:58 |
Why have you come here to see me now? |
00:53:02 |
To help you with your appeal, Kiran? |
00:53:06 |
I already have a lawer |
00:53:08 |
yeah and what a great job she has done foryou |
00:53:12 |
Has she begun working on your appeal? |
00:53:14 |
Has she spoken to anyone? |
00:53:16 |
Tell me Kiran... Has she even come to see you since you |
00:53:23 |
I thought not |
00:53:26 |
Time is running out foryour appeal |
00:53:29 |
We will find you a better lawyer |
00:53:30 |
Someone actually who can do something foryou |
00:53:33 |
Kiran... Let us help you |
00:53:38 |
Do you really want to help me? |
00:53:41 |
Yes |
00:53:43 |
Bring me my children, please |
00:53:49 |
No. |
00:53:51 |
She is their mother |
00:53:52 |
I know who she is! |
00:53:55 |
She is the bitch that killed my son |
00:53:58 |
Don't come here again |
00:54:01 |
You know she slammed the door on me so fast |
00:54:04 |
I almost lost the door |
00:54:05 |
And I guess nothing more we can do! |
00:54:07 |
What are you saying? |
00:54:08 |
We should just abandon |
00:54:10 |
We should just let her do |
00:54:11 |
Hey.. come on... it is no point anyway |
00:54:14 |
The mother-in-law will not give the children |
00:54:17 |
without court order |
00:54:22 |
You are a bloody brilliant |
00:54:35 |
Not so quick |
00:54:38 |
Yeah.. Read this! |
00:54:46 |
What does it say? |
00:54:47 |
It is a court order! |
00:54:48 |
It instructs you to deliverthe boys to me so that |
00:54:52 |
What if I refuse you? |
00:54:55 |
Then they will be visiting you in jail, as well |
00:55:45 |
well! |
00:55:47 |
We are in! |
00:55:51 |
Come on.. You go right in |
00:55:54 |
Good boy |
00:55:58 |
Sandeep... Get him |
00:56:02 |
I have an appointment to meet her lawyertomorrow |
00:56:05 |
I don't believe it |
00:56:07 |
How did you get these children? |
00:56:10 |
With this court order |
00:56:14 |
But this is an old one from another case |
00:56:16 |
yes. |
00:56:20 |
So I took a chance |
00:56:22 |
You are evil |
00:56:26 |
Hey... Baby you have seen nothing yet |
00:56:49 |
Scott Veronica! |
00:56:55 |
Look at her! |
00:57:33 |
So what can I do foryou? |
00:57:35 |
I am with southwells black sisters |
00:57:37 |
I guess Kiran Jeet had told you that I will be stopping |
00:57:40 |
Right |
00:57:40 |
So what can I do foryou Mrs.? |
00:57:42 |
Mrs. Dallal... But you can call me Raadha |
00:57:45 |
As you can see from the condition of my desk |
00:57:47 |
do discuss this |
00:57:48 |
Is that what you are going to tell Kiran? |
00:57:49 |
when she asks why you missed the cut |
00:57:52 |
She has only two more days to submit grounds |
00:57:55 |
or her setence stance |
00:57:57 |
And you are saying that you don't seem prepared |
00:58:00 |
Ms. Dallal let me be frank with you |
00:58:03 |
I know your group and the work you do |
00:58:05 |
I find a lot of it be quite commendable |
00:58:07 |
I couldn't do your job |
00:58:08 |
By that same turn |
00:58:10 |
I also wouldn't walk into your office and |
00:58:12 |
tell you how to do it? |
00:58:13 |
I have not been for weeks, sometimes |
00:58:16 |
all night looking for something, anything |
00:58:19 |
on which to challange this conviction |
00:58:21 |
I may not be one of those stuff shirts on |
00:58:23 |
billing 500 pounds an hour and billing brandi in the club |
00:58:27 |
But I know the law |
00:58:29 |
And the honest truth is... |
00:58:31 |
The verdict was accurate as a matter of law |
00:58:34 |
I am sorry |
00:58:35 |
I feel for hertoo |
00:58:37 |
But there is just nothing else to be done |
00:58:45 |
I suppose then we will have to look just |
00:59:13 |
Deepak! |
00:59:16 |
Oh! It's you |
00:59:21 |
You got very late |
00:59:31 |
What is this? |
00:59:35 |
Alcohol? |
00:59:44 |
You are beautiful |
00:59:47 |
You have drunken a lot |
00:59:51 |
No Deepak... Not here |
01:00:16 |
What are you doing? |
01:00:20 |
Think about kids! |
01:01:02 |
It is okay |
01:01:04 |
You are safe |
01:01:05 |
You are okay |
01:01:31 |
I killed my husband |
01:01:39 |
I have been married to Deepak for 10 years |
01:01:45 |
Not one night... |
01:01:50 |
He beated up... |
01:01:58 |
He sometimes.. |
01:02:07 |
Can I hug you? |
01:02:15 |
So you killed him! |
01:02:18 |
good! |
01:02:30 |
I was born in the village of Chak Kallal |
01:02:33 |
In Punjab |
01:02:40 |
I was youngest in the 9 children and the most loved |
01:02:47 |
My father died when I was only few months old |
01:02:53 |
My mother died of cancer when |
01:02:56 |
I was 16 years |
01:03:02 |
She wanted me to become a lawyer |
01:03:08 |
So why didn't you do that? |
01:03:13 |
My husband didn't allow me |
01:03:20 |
It is a free country Kiran |
01:03:22 |
You can be what you want to be |
01:03:28 |
But my family say get married, have children |
01:03:31 |
be a proper Indian woman |
01:03:45 |
I was a housewife in Bermingham |
01:03:48 |
But you wouldn't be here |
01:03:51 |
That was something worse than prison |
01:04:00 |
Big word. |
01:04:04 |
Big word. |
01:04:11 |
It needs.. |
01:04:17 |
I need you |
01:04:19 |
yeah.. You need me |
01:04:20 |
Don't worry.. I can be better |
01:04:45 |
It was becoming unbearable |
01:04:51 |
She had only one desire now |
01:04:55 |
having... bus... |
01:05:09 |
heaving.. |
01:05:24 |
Next |
01:05:27 |
Avadali! |
01:05:36 |
Next.. |
01:05:48 |
What are you doing? |
01:05:50 |
I need 60 pouds |
01:05:52 |
60 pounds... why so much? |
01:06:06 |
How will I manage the household expenses? |
01:06:12 |
Where are you going? |
01:06:17 |
I know who you are going to meet |
01:06:20 |
You should be ashamed |
01:06:22 |
I am carrying your baby |
01:06:25 |
Get out of the way! |
01:06:27 |
No |
01:06:29 |
I said.. move...! |
01:06:37 |
It wasn't my fault |
01:06:41 |
Are you alright? |
01:06:46 |
How is the baby? |
01:06:57 |
I am sorry |
01:07:06 |
The children love their books... |
01:07:10 |
Thank you |
01:07:11 |
WOW.. Kiran your English is really improving |
01:07:14 |
It is all thanks to Ronni |
01:07:17 |
I really wanted you to meet her |
01:07:19 |
So what is the situation with Kiran's appeal now? |
01:07:21 |
Our solicitor barely meets the deadline |
01:07:24 |
It is now overyear and we are still waiting |
01:07:29 |
Well that is the biggest challange. |
01:07:40 |
Yes... please hold |
01:07:47 |
I said no interruptions |
01:07:49 |
I am sorry sir... but your sister is on line |
01:07:59 |
These are you rboys |
01:08:02 |
They are beautiful |
01:08:05 |
Do you have children? |
01:08:06 |
Two girls |
01:08:10 |
You miss them |
01:08:12 |
Every bloody day |
01:08:27 |
Do you have any idea what is this about? |
01:08:29 |
No.. I didn't know two hours ago.. |
01:08:31 |
I certainly don't know |
01:08:34 |
There is no need of such attitude.. |
01:08:41 |
Nice necklace |
01:08:50 |
Nice tie! |
01:08:54 |
Lord first will see you now |
01:08:59 |
Hello.. |
01:09:04 |
Please be seated |
01:09:05 |
Can I offeryou something.. tea, coffee, etc |
01:09:07 |
No thank you |
01:09:09 |
I would like to have some tea with milk, please |
01:09:13 |
thank you both of you for coming |
01:09:15 |
I am well aware of timeliness of this case |
01:09:18 |
So I feel |
01:09:20 |
It would be in every body's interest if you.. |
01:09:22 |
would continue Mr. Gupta as a solicitorforthe proceedings |
01:09:27 |
Obviously we have full access to our.. |
01:09:32 |
Thank you |
01:09:35 |
Sorry... Sir... |
01:09:40 |
About what? |
01:09:41 |
Well about what we are doing here? |
01:09:43 |
Oh... I do apologies.. |
01:09:45 |
I assumed you have been told |
01:09:47 |
I will be the council for Mrs. Alavadia |
01:09:49 |
for her appeal |
01:09:50 |
What? |
01:09:52 |
But why would you take? |
01:09:54 |
Sir.. Are you aware of that we have no funds to |
01:09:58 |
No need to ask friend... I will do this as a favor |
01:10:02 |
To whom? |
01:10:03 |
Favorto my sister Veronica Scott! |
01:10:06 |
She is acquainted with your client at Marvin Hall |
01:10:09 |
Indeed I believe they are cell-mates |
01:10:14 |
You are her brother! |
01:10:18 |
To be perfectly honest I was surprised to get her call |
01:10:22 |
We have multiple relationships at best |
01:10:25 |
She wouldn't even me helped her with her own |
01:10:30 |
She must consider Mrs. Alavadia to be a very good friend |
01:10:38 |
Hi.. |
01:10:42 |
What? |
01:10:50 |
You are welcome! |
01:10:55 |
Okay... now I am having trouble brathing now |
01:11:27 |
Jamila..! |
01:11:39 |
Can't you read English? |
01:11:41 |
Can't you? |
01:11:42 |
This isn't stupid words... it's a woman life |
01:11:45 |
No bails means no bails |
01:11:47 |
So sorry officer |
01:11:49 |
we will remove them |
01:11:51 |
See you too |
01:11:52 |
Are you crazy...? |
01:11:55 |
What? |
01:12:02 |
I don't believe this |
01:12:10 |
Nuna.. What is happening? |
01:12:12 |
It's Gladys... Come on |
01:12:34 |
What are you talking about? |
01:12:48 |
That is right |
01:12:49 |
She is a child killer |
01:12:52 |
I am wonder how you can keep quiet |
01:12:57 |
No |
01:12:59 |
What do you want to know about No |
01:13:02 |
Piss off |
01:13:05 |
Leave her alone |
01:13:07 |
You are telling me what I do |
01:13:11 |
Why? |
01:13:13 |
She is a friend |
01:13:16 |
And I don't like police |
01:13:35 |
You will need to get me too |
01:13:48 |
Whatever! |
01:13:59 |
You are no need to assist someone |
01:14:11 |
...Hey |
01:14:13 |
That was an accident |
01:14:14 |
I was doing a lot of drinking |
01:14:17 |
And one night I was making |
01:14:18 |
to fell asleep |
01:14:34 |
There were flames and screamings |
01:14:39 |
My babies were screaming |
01:14:58 |
I cannot |
01:15:00 |
Why? |
01:15:05 |
I feel ashamed |
01:15:09 |
I cannot be so rude before the world |
01:15:12 |
I understand Kiran |
01:15:14 |
But people need to hearyour story in your own words |
01:15:22 |
My English is still not very good |
01:15:25 |
So do in Punjabi.. |
01:15:31 |
I don't know how |
01:15:35 |
Say just the way you told me! |
01:15:38 |
You will also have other women |
01:15:40 |
Come on |
01:15:41 |
The hall has been booked.. |
01:15:45 |
This rally is a good chance to get public support |
01:15:50 |
Is your reputation more important than yourfreedom? |
01:15:55 |
At least think of your children |
01:16:19 |
My culture is like my blood |
01:16:23 |
flowing through every vein of my body |
01:16:27 |
It is the culture which I was born |
01:16:29 |
Which sees the woman as teh honour of the house |
01:16:34 |
In orderto afford this false honour |
01:16:49 |
Awoman is a toy |
01:16:50 |
a plaything |
01:16:52 |
broken at will, stuck together at will! |
01:16:56 |
For 10 years I lived alive of beatings and degregation |
01:17:02 |
And no one noticed |
01:17:04 |
I came out of my husband's jail and entered the jail of law |
01:17:09 |
It is here that at last that I have found |
01:17:23 |
I am so proud of you |
01:17:59 |
James O'Connor |
01:18:01 |
Who are you? |
01:18:02 |
Anil Gupta, solicitor of Kiran Alavadia |
01:18:20 |
What do you want? |
01:18:22 |
I saw you in the rally |
01:18:25 |
I am not going to be about the bush |
01:18:30 |
I need your help in Kiran's matter |
01:18:32 |
What are her chances? |
01:18:34 |
To be honest... Remote! |
01:18:44 |
Pretty girl... your wife? |
01:18:48 |
my fiance... Foma |
01:18:51 |
Oh Sorry |
01:19:03 |
I am the world's worse irish man |
01:19:07 |
Then afterthe case she knew something |
01:19:11 |
Didn't know what exactly |
01:19:12 |
She told she guessed something was |
01:19:17 |
In the original trial! |
01:19:19 |
You testified afterthe fire that Kiran was |
01:19:27 |
Is that correct? |
01:19:29 |
But I lied in court |
01:19:33 |
She wasn't lucid.. She was hardly even aware |
01:19:39 |
All I had to say... what happened |
01:19:43 |
I promoted my career in front of truth |
01:19:46 |
They say confession is good forthe soul |
01:19:50 |
You think that is true |
01:19:52 |
I believe it is true |
01:20:30 |
Just let me do to talk around |
01:20:32 |
Okay |
01:20:36 |
I have looked oerthe material you sent to me |
01:20:38 |
What do you think? |
01:20:40 |
You are not giving to like it |
01:20:42 |
Her statement is completely self justificatory |
01:20:45 |
She did it.. She admits doing it |
01:20:47 |
Why she should be treated differently from |
01:20:50 |
But that is ridiculous.. |
01:20:52 |
Is there something that we could use? |
01:20:54 |
There might be one thing |
01:20:57 |
Followup on the prisnor psychiatrist report |
01:21:00 |
He saw her shortly afterthe incidence just before trial |
01:21:03 |
And he mentions endogenous depression! |
01:21:07 |
Do you mean we have to say she is crazy |
01:21:10 |
Thank you doctor... You have been of great help |
01:21:12 |
What kind of world is this? |
01:21:14 |
Where woman has to lose marbles to get justice |
01:21:16 |
And the man has just to lose his temper |
01:21:19 |
I am sorry doctor... Thank you again |
01:21:21 |
We are leaving! |
01:21:28 |
Ronni.. Look you will not believe the number of letters |
01:21:32 |
What is wrong? |
01:21:39 |
Your appeal! |
01:21:51 |
I don't know what going to talk |
01:22:08 |
Indian's average |
01:22:17 |
When did you get such papers? |
01:22:24 |
The day I met you |
01:22:30 |
Why didn't Kiran's lawertried provokation |
01:22:34 |
As it doesn't apply in our case? |
01:22:43 |
So the law consider it a cooling down period |
01:22:45 |
Basically what they are saying is |
01:22:47 |
Kiran had time to calm down and think rationally |
01:22:50 |
therefore no provokation... so it is not man assault |
01:22:53 |
But she was emotionally, physically and sexually |
01:22:58 |
One night she slept |
01:23:00 |
so instead of cooling down she boiled over |
01:23:04 |
Is that so difficult to.. |
01:23:06 |
That is bloody briliant |
01:23:08 |
What? |
01:23:09 |
We can use this as basis for appeal |
01:23:11 |
Me! |
01:23:13 |
The judge failed to mention Kiran's history of abuse |
01:23:21 |
I mean this can be a misdirection of jury |
01:23:23 |
So what are you saying... We have a chance |
01:23:26 |
Yeah... a small one, but a chance |
01:23:34 |
Where is Ronnie? |
01:23:46 |
Ronnie? |
01:23:55 |
Ronnie? |
01:24:21 |
It is a sort of little determination to do such sort of damage |
01:24:24 |
with a plastic blade |
01:24:27 |
She is very lucky when you found her |
01:24:29 |
She will be okay? |
01:24:32 |
She will be confined to the ward until she |
01:24:42 |
Nice work Alavadia! |
01:24:45 |
You have saved me a mountain of paperwork |
01:25:20 |
I don't know if this is a good idea |
01:25:22 |
Trust us.. It is |
01:25:26 |
You deserve what you look |
01:26:39 |
Good luck Kiran |
01:26:46 |
Kiran.. Kiran.. |
01:27:16 |
I went to the bank today |
01:27:23 |
Tell me... What did you do with that? |
01:27:27 |
I spent it |
01:27:31 |
The money was mine... |
01:27:37 |
I spent it! |
01:27:40 |
Food foryour sons |
01:27:42 |
You would have blown it on your white whores |
01:27:54 |
What If I burn that bloody face of which you |
01:27:59 |
This is my house |
01:28:00 |
It is my money |
01:28:03 |
If I were to spend on another woman.. |
01:28:16 |
Who is going to stop me? |
01:28:19 |
You! |
01:28:33 |
You woman are nothing.. |
01:28:39 |
else than nothing |
01:30:15 |
All rise.. |
01:30:29 |
Council.. Are you ready to present your case? |
01:30:33 |
Yes Your honour |
01:30:34 |
Proceed |
01:30:35 |
My Lord today we have come before you to present our |
01:30:41 |
Kiran Jeet.. Alavadia! |
01:30:43 |
And her conviction for murder |
01:30:46 |
which was handed down by the court on |
01:30:50 |
It is our beliefs my Lord that this |
01:30:52 |
conviction was handed down in error |
01:30:55 |
And in such we seek appeal for a new trial |
01:30:58 |
We note that you are presenting grounds foryour appeal |
01:31:02 |
My Lords we seek appeal on three grounds |
01:31:07 |
My first and second submissions relate to the |
01:31:11 |
On provokation |
01:31:14 |
The classic definition of provokation is that which was |
01:31:17 |
in Regina versus Duffy |
01:31:21 |
I quote "provokation" |
01:31:25 |
"is some act or series of acts, which |
01:31:29 |
could cause any reasonable person |
01:31:31 |
a sudden and temporarily loss of self control |
01:31:35 |
rendering the accused sole subject to passion |
01:31:38 |
as to make him or herforthe moment not |
01:31:41 |
master of his or her own mind |
01:31:44 |
My Lords I believe the judge in the present case |
01:31:49 |
repeated those very words on that date |
01:31:53 |
And he is summing up |
01:31:55 |
Indeed My Lord that is true |
01:31:56 |
However, it is my belief that the Duffy direction followed |
01:32:00 |
to put it bluntly incorrect |
01:32:03 |
Trade softly, council |
01:32:05 |
Big pardon, My Lord |
01:32:07 |
No disrespect intended |
01:32:09 |
However, in his submation to the jury.. |
01:32:13 |
His lordship remarked that due to the two hour |
01:32:16 |
cooling out period between assaulted my client |
01:32:21 |
And the subsequent crime for which she was charged |
01:32:24 |
No plea or provokation could be considered |
01:32:27 |
And yet My Lords |
01:32:28 |
The homocial act of 1957 reads.. |
01:32:31 |
Where there is evidence on which the jury confined |
01:32:34 |
the defendant was provoked |
01:32:37 |
to lose his self control |
01:32:39 |
The question of whether it was enough to make |
01:32:42 |
do as they did shall be left to the jury! |
01:32:46 |
It could be argument My Lord.. but the |
01:32:50 |
judge didn't consider setting fire to a man who slept |
01:32:54 |
the actions of a reasonable person |
01:32:57 |
Reasonable My Lord to whom... |
01:33:02 |
orto a woman who suffered voilance and abuse |
01:33:05 |
and humilation of the highest order of 10 years |
01:33:08 |
Who feard not only for her life, but forthe |
01:33:13 |
I myself couldn't, wouldn't persume to know |
01:33:17 |
What reasonable would be for |
01:33:19 |
such a woman! |
01:33:23 |
My second submission My Lords |
01:33:26 |
concerned the way the learnant judge dealt with the |
01:33:29 |
of the list of the characteristics |
01:33:32 |
I submit My Lords |
01:33:34 |
That this woman was suffering from |
01:33:37 |
And that ill treatment so affected her personality that |
01:33:40 |
lead herto a state of learnt helplessness |
01:33:45 |
A phrase used by those who have recognized this condition |
01:33:48 |
You believe that the judge should have added |
01:33:52 |
Orthe least My Lords left the list opened so that jury |
01:33:55 |
forthemselves |
01:33:57 |
Finally, my third submission deals with the grounds |
01:34:03 |
We submit the sole statement of police constable, |
01:34:07 |
stating that the defendant was neither lucid, nor aware |
01:34:12 |
When he interviewed her immediately afterthe incident |
01:34:16 |
Also My Lords we have psychiatric reports.. |
01:34:19 |
Most of them came recently, which express the opinion |
01:34:21 |
that at the time of the killing |
01:34:24 |
the defendant's mental responsitbility for her |
01:34:29 |
within the meaning of homocial act of 1957 |
01:34:33 |
My Lords my client has suffered two major injustices |
01:34:38 |
First the man who promised to love and honour |
01:34:42 |
And second by our system of justice |
01:34:45 |
It is tragically too late to correct the first |
01:34:49 |
But by granting our appeal you will help us on |
01:34:52 |
towards the rectifying the second |
01:35:00 |
We will considerthe issues overnight |
01:35:03 |
Court is adjourned until 10:30 a. m. tomorrow |
01:35:12 |
One more please |
01:35:17 |
So what are we drinking too, Mr. solicitor? |
01:35:22 |
To victory tomorrow orto one of my lost causes |
01:35:32 |
Because it is personal |
01:35:34 |
What? |
01:35:36 |
My sister! |
01:35:39 |
How could I have been so blind? |
01:35:43 |
You know.. Everytime I would see her bruises |
01:35:46 |
She would tell me the story to walking into |
01:35:51 |
And I actually believed it |
01:35:54 |
How would you protect that stupid bastard? |
01:35:57 |
Do you know... He is to beat her black and blue |
01:36:06 |
and no one had intervened it |
01:36:10 |
Then one day she just killed herself |
01:36:17 |
And I could do nothing |
01:36:22 |
I couldn't save her |
01:36:25 |
I am so sorry |
01:36:27 |
I didn't know |
01:36:33 |
This is to sister |
01:37:03 |
Kiran Jeet.. |
01:37:05 |
This is a tragic case that has aroused much public attention |
01:37:10 |
Three grounds of appeal hae been raised |
01:37:14 |
The first two relates to the learner judges |
01:37:18 |
on provokation |
01:37:20 |
In my judgement the summing up of learnet judge |
01:37:24 |
was correct in law... |
01:37:26 |
Turning to the third ground of appeal |
01:37:30 |
the diminished responsibility... We can |
01:37:36 |
We had before us a report, which |
01:37:39 |
was available before trial |
01:37:42 |
in which a doctor was expressing the opinion that the |
01:37:46 |
from endogenous depression |
01:37:49 |
at the material time |
01:37:52 |
It is unclear how such potentially important |
01:37:57 |
to be overlooked |
01:37:59 |
In these circumstances we considerthe verdict to be unsafe |
01:38:05 |
And as such we considerthe proper course here is to order |
01:38:09 |
a retrial... |
01:38:31 |
There was never a retrial of course |
01:38:33 |
The court could neverfind a woman who would |
01:38:38 |
So on September 25, 1992 |
01:38:41 |
They reduced her setentece to mansalughter and |
01:38:46 |
accepted that 3 years 4 months that |
01:39:21 |
Kiran.. Afew words from you |
01:39:27 |
Thank you for all this |
01:39:32 |
In life there is no honour in silence suffering |
01:39:36 |
There is no affection, no comfort to be found |
01:39:39 |
in love that is abused |
01:39:42 |
It is our responsibility as mothers |
01:39:44 |
To raise our son to treat women with love and respect |
01:39:48 |
Not voilance and anger |
01:39:51 |
Only then the suffering will end |
01:39:57 |
My story is a part of the picture |
01:40:00 |
I am not important, but this issue is |
01:40:07 |
Please don't forget that there are many |
01:40:12 |
who need help from you! |
01:40:18 |
Please... |
01:40:30 |
Mostly we can,t imagine what is life to spend |
01:40:34 |
It was herfirst step towards freedom |
01:40:38 |
It was herfirst step towards freedom |
