The Diplomat (राजनयिक)

Look here. Insert the magazine…

load it like this…

You little runt!

Make him practice it.

Greetings.

Let's go.

Kulbhushan Jadhav was operating a terror network in Pakistan.

He was a commander rank officer in the Indian Navy still in service.

And in the year 2003…

I hope this trip is worth it.

She will make it worth it for us.

You know what to do.

SECURITY CHECK

When will it open?

Today is Friday. Might not open at all.

Wait over there.

Uzma.

Uzma!

Yes?

The work must be done today.

Brother…

let's go have a smoke.

Sure.

Come on.

Help me.

I'm an Indian citizen.

Please let me in.

We cannot let you in, ma'am. Please state your purpose--

Let me in. I am an Indian citizen.

Please let me inside. I'm in trouble.

Some men have forcefully detained me in Buner.

Please let me in.

Hold on… hold on.

Please calm down. What are you saying?

Some men have forcibly detained me in Buner.

They are around. Please let me in quickly.

Sir, if you don't help me, a fellow Indian, then who will?

Sir, please.

Please.

Please, sir.

Gate number six.

Gate number six.

Help! Help!

-Help! -Tiwari sir.

-Over here, sir. -Help!

-Help! -What…

-Help! -Who are you?

-Help! -Who are you?

-Help! -How did you come inside?

-Who let you in? Open the door! -Help!

-Throw her out. -Don't open the door!

Don't open the door! They are outside!

Check her thoroughly. Now!

-Careful, Seerat. -I'm not carrying anything.

-I'm not carrying anything. -Check her properly.

-There's nothing-- -Who let her in?

-Throw her out! -Tiwari sir! Tiwari sir!

-Sir, I… -What is this…

I cannot go outside.

-Ma'am. -I'm an Indian citizen.

-Please help me. -Ma'am, please. I know.

-Ma'am, please. -I won't go out.

-They will kill me. -No one's sending you out.

If you send me out, I will slit my wrist!

-No, no, ma'am. Please. -There might be a bomb on her!

-Save me! -Hold on. Please.

She could have a bomb strapped to her belt!

-If she triggers it… -There's nothing on me!

we'll be blown to bits!

-Who knows where else-- -They must have checked her at the gate.

Yes.

Ma'am, please calm down.

You are inside now. You are safe here, okay?

-Please don't send me out. -We are not going to harm you.

Those people will kill me.

-Please. Can I have your passport? -Please don't send me out.

Ma'am, please. We'll try to solve whatever problem you have.

We're only trying to help you.

Passport.

Please.

Don't open the door. They will kill me.

Check it properly.

I'll inform JP sir.

What is your name?

-Uzma. -Uzma what?

Uzma Ahmed.

What is the problem?

Sir, I cannot go outside.

If you can't keep me here,

then please send me out from the front gate.

So you won't leave unless you've seen both the gates.

You've already seen the one at the back.

Sir, please help me.

Getting to the Indian Embassy wasn't easy for me.

If you don't help me, I might never make it back here again.

Definitely not alive.

Please, sir.

What is Bhishma Pitamaha's opinion?

Genuine.

It's a genuine case.

Gill sahab, is that a father talking, or a veteran?

It's my professional opinion as the Head of Chancery.

But… one problem still persists.

In my opinion, sir, we should let her go.

Her presence in the embassy is risky--

Let him finish talking.

Had she been married to someone of a different nationality

under identical circumstances, this wouldn't even be a case.

She would be on the next flight to Delhi.

The Pakistani angle makes all the difference.

My heart is in conflict with my brain, as usual.

-Did you check? -Yes, sir.

Machine-readable passport zones are correct.

And her details are a match, including her biometrics.

This is a security state.

You stand exposed in this country.

So, no secrets. Otherwise, the odds will be against you.

Where in Pakistan have you been staying since your arrival?

Buner.

Buner?

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

-KPK? -Yes.

Even normal Pakistanis are terrified to roam that area.

How did you end up there?

I had no idea such a place existed

when I was in India.

How did you get the visa so conveniently?

-Sir, Tahir was… -Tahir?

The man who convinced me to come to Pakistan.

He coerced me to marry him.

Coerced?

And now he conveniently brought you to the Indian Embassy?

You can't imagine the things I had to do.

I'm here to listen to your story.

How did you get the visa?

How could an unmarried girl your age manage that?

He explained to me how to apply.

I had some relatives in Pakistan.

He told me to write "visiting family" under purpose.

I got the visa in no time.

And instead of going to your relatives…

you went straight to Buner.

Impossible!

In a country where you can't travel from one city to another on a single visa,

how did you get this far?

I don't know, sir.

But that is how it happened.

After crossing Wagah, I ended up directly in Buner.

No police reporting?

Say it out loud. Yes or no. On record!

None at all.

Where is your immigration sheet?

I don't have one.

No immigration sheet either?

No one asked for any such document.

What happened, sir?

Congrats.

You're a unique Indian citizen sitting in Pakistan

without police reporting or an immigration sheet.

Either you're incredibly lucky…

or you're a complete fraud.

What are you?

I'm telling you the truth, sir.

I came to Buner.

They restrained me. Assaulted me.

Forced me.

This is the truth, sir.

Please help me.

This is Pakistan.

We trust no one.

Show us the marks.

Show us the marks!

Sir, I am extremely sorry for this…

Sir.

She was assaulted by her husband.

-Injury or injury marks? -Both.

Injury marks can be faked.

How do you know it was the husband?

Sir, with due respect, it's easy to tell in the sub-continents.

Well, in any part of the world,

a woman can easily tell

if another has been through domestic violence.

You don't have to get furious and aim that feminism gun at me.

I need to verify facts, so I was just cross-checking.

I know, sir.

She has also been sexually assaulted.

Bite marks.

Old injuries to private parts.

Excuse me.

Safia.

Get the remaining details from Mr. JP.

Okay.

Yeah, Faraz.

-Hello. -What is your advice, Malik sahab?

It's a fake narrative, sir.

RA&W had someone in Bollywood cook up this story.

An Indian girl lands in Buner…

without our knowledge.

No police reporting.

No immigration sheet.
