Vikram ignored everyone's pressure
and locked all of them inside the lock-up.
The very next day—
he filed an appeal in court.
This case had now become massive.
Even the media had started covering it.
The case was heard in court…
and officially registered.
When Vikram returned to the police station—
he found a letter lying on his table.
It was his suspension order.
Inspector Vikram had been suspended.
For a moment…
everything felt frozen.
But Vikram refused to give up.
He handed the investigation work to Ravi, Pankaj, and Meena…
And along with his lawyer Krishna,
he started preparing to fight the case legally.
Days passed…
Court hearings continued…
Even though it was being heard in a fast-track court—
an entire month slowly passed by.
And today…
was the most important day of the case.
Vikram presented the camera and memory card in court.
The judge allowed the video to be played.
The entire courtroom stared at the screen.
The video started…
But—
there was nothing in it.
The memory card was completely empty.
Whispers immediately spread across the courtroom.
Vikram was completely shocked.
He couldn't understand how this had happened.
Had someone from his own department switched the memory card?
He was completely confused.
Because of the lack of solid evidence—
the judge announced the final hearing for next Friday.
Judge: "If you fail to present solid evidence by next week…
the court will be forced to deliver its judgment."
This news spread rapidly through the media.
The case had now become high-profile.
Every newspaper…
every TV channel…
was talking about only one thing—
this case.
Meanwhile…
Vikram was under immense pressure.
Only one question kept spinning in his mind—
"How did the memory card become empty?"
Now he had no evidence left.
And even Meena's statement wasn't considered strong enough in court…
because she herself was a police officer.
Her testimony alone could not win the case.
Slowly…
the case was beginning to lean in Vivek Verma's favor.
Vikram understood one thing clearly—
If he lost this case…
• these people would start everything again.
• and maybe this time… they wouldn't let Vikram stay alive either.
Days passed…
And finally—
Friday arrived.
The courtroom was packed again.
Many villagers had also gathered there.
The judge began hearing the case once more.
Krishna tried his best.
He explained the entire case in detail…
But—
there was still no solid evidence.
The judge was just about to announce his verdict…
because Vikram had failed to present any proof strong enough to establish the truth.
And now—
the decision was about to go in Vivek Verma's favor.
The judge had already picked up his pen…
He was just about to write the final judgment—
And then—
The courtroom doors suddenly burst open.
Everyone turned toward the entrance.
It was Pankaj.
Files were clutched tightly in his hands.
He walked straight to the judge…
and handed over all the files.
The judge carefully examined them…
And slowly—
the atmosphere inside the courtroom began to change.
Meanwhile—
fear appeared on Vivek and the others' faces for the first time.
Even they were wondering—
"What evidence has come now?"
Those documents clearly proved—
• Vivek Verma arranged marriages of poor girls with men who were already married.
• Or with men suffering from deadly diseases.
And in return—
he charged huge amounts of money for it.
The courtroom erupted into whispers.
Even the villagers sitting there were stunned.
They couldn't believe that the man they considered a god…
had such a horrifying real face.
Now slowly—
the case was beginning to shift toward Vikram's side.
But—
all this only proved fraud and exploitation.
• The real truth of the haveli…
• And the crime that was about to happen to Meena…
Still hadn't been proven in court.
So now the biggest question remained—
Will these new pieces of evidence be enough to punish Vivek and the others…?
Or
is the biggest truth still hidden in darkness…?
What do you think will happen next?
