Avrodh the Siege Within (2020–…): Season 2, Episode 8 - My country is my family - full transcript

The Cabinet gathers in the PMO as the prime minister applauds the team on conducting the surgical strikes efficiently and catching the RDX on time. However, when it comes to fixing the economy, they will need to make some tough de...

The operation was focused on
ensuring that these terrorists...

[DGMO] ‘...do not succeed in their
design to cause destruction...’

‘...and endanger
the lives of our citizens.’

‘We do not have any plans
for continuation...’

‘...of the operations further.’

‘However, the Indian armed forces
are fully geared up...’

‘...and prepared to meet
any contingency or eventuality...’

‘...that may arise.’

‘We expect the Pakistan army
to cooperate with us...’

‘...in erasing the menace
of terrorism from the region.’

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
Jai Hind.



Let's forget the past, Waziri.

If India thinks that they can
scare us with this strike,

we must force them
to think again.

I had told you,

there will be repercussions.

Our methods may be different,
but our motive is the same.

And our enemy is also the same.

The difference is,

that your method
depends on people.

And mine depends on process.

My plan is faceless.

Not exactly.

What do you mean?

[Aziz] ‘She is your main agent...’



...in India, right?

[Aziz] ‘Indian authorities
are already on to her.’

We’ve lost Punjab, Waziri.

[Aziz] ‘Never mind.’

But the money has reached Nagaland,
Chhattisgarh and Tamil Nadu.

[Aziz] ‘Let's focus on that.
Okay?’

I’ll take your leave.

Waziri...

We'll have to do something
about Parveena.

[Title Montage]

[Shailesh] ‘Pakistan
has quelled...’

‘...all reports of our
surgical strike.’

They are trying to pretend
to the international corridors...

...that no such strike
was done.

A rat will always try to escape,

before getting trapped.

Their silence is the evidence
to their crime.

Sir, Mandarji is here.

Please sit.

Mandarji, you were right.

Only after being aware
of the truth, can a person face it.

In the past few days,

we've faced many challenges.

[PM] ‘The spirit shown
by our soldiers...’

‘...in this surgical strike,’

is incomparable.

And the credit for its headship...

...goes to Malviyaji.

[PM] ‘Our intelligence team has
helped seize...’

...100 kilos of RDX.

This is also a big
success for us.

[PM] ‘Now, coming to our economy.’

Mandarji and I...

...were in conversation
with the think tank.

[PM] ‘I see one thing
clearly now.’

The attack of terrorism
is from outside.

[PM] But the seige
on our economy...

That is our very own.

And it's our duty to overcome it.

Black money and counterfeit money..

...are the pillars of corruption.

They are the reason
behind inflation.

[PM] ‘Unless we uproot...’

‘...these pillars...’

[PM] ‘...it will be impossible
to separate...’

‘...the honest from the corrupt.’

And it is the honest man
who will suffer.

He will strive and labour,

but the fruits will remain bitter.

[PM] ‘Mandarji,’

your suggestions
will remain unattainable...

...until we move ahead
of the thief.

I have decided.

Next April,

at the start
of the new fiscal year...

...we will ban the highest value
currency notes.

[PM] ‘It's September now.’

‘We have six months.’

‘Devise a plan.’

I want citizens to face...

...as few difficulties as possible,
with this demonetization.

[PM] ‘And remember,’

this conversation
must remain within this group.

We know her name,

we know her face.

[Pradeep] ‘Pritpal has
identified her too.’

‘We also know
that she runs a fishy NGO.’

‘We know that she operates
from Alang.’

But we don't know
if she has fled the country.

Yes...

Get lost!

[phone beeps]

Sir.

Hello.
Where is Sukhdev?

[Man] ‘Sir, he is in Gulati Sir’s
cabin.’

‘Should I call him?’

No. It's okay.

Good morning.

Sukhdev. Look at this.

Dream Help Foundation
made six payments last year.

It's a small amount,

but only to one account.

- Okay?
- Yes.

Find out who this bank account
belongs to, and its location.

And Deepa has sent lunch for you.
Share it with everyone.

No way am I sharing this.

[IVR] ‘The number you have dialled
is presently not reachable.’

[Parveena] ‘Hi, Professor.
I know I messed up.’

‘But I promise you..’

Listen to me carefully, Saman.

They are on to you.

What?

[Waziri] ‘The Indian authorities
have all your details.’

Your name, your photos.

[Waziri] ‘Dream Help Foundation
is compromised too.’

‘Go off the grid completely.’

‘If you get caught by
the Indian Authorities...’

...that will be the end
of this entire operation.

But what about our money?

[Parveena] Our plan?

If you get caught
without even achieving your goal...

...it is called foolishness,
not martyrdom.

- Should I come there?
- [Waziri] ‘No way.’

Stay there.

Stay put.

Don't worry, Saman,
I will come and get you.

[Waziri] ‘Until then,’

don't move.

Goodbye.

But...

[Waziri] Don't worry, Saman,
I will come and get you.

Until then, don't move.

Goodbye.

[Farooq] ‘General.’

‘Anytime now,
India can reach her.’

[Aziz] Then let us reach her
before they do.

Do we have enough time?

Our mints can print 300 crore
notes every month.

Even if we demonetise
only the 1000 rupee denomination...

...which means
removing of thousands..

...of crores of notes
from the system.

[Mandar] ‘And to fill this gap,’

‘we must start printing...’

...the new notes right away.

What about lower
denominations, they can help?

Yes. That's a good idea.

[Satish] ‘We can simultaneously
increase the circulation...’

‘...of 500 and 100 rupee notes.’

But all this in six months?

Is it possible?

Sir...

Sir, I can't praise
Deepa bhabhi enough.

Wow, the food was delicious.
I relished it..

Sukhdev, have you come here
to talk nonsense?

Is the job done?

Yes, of course sir.

- Please tell me then.
- Right.

Sir, I've got the purchase
details of Dream Help Foundation.

There is a security company,
.

Bird View Security company in Delhi

One minute.

Sir, why are you disturbing
Imtiaz sir?

I've already spoken
to Bird View Security.

Yes. Look at this, sir.

Sixteen CCTV cameras with screen.

Okay.

One integrated alarm solution.

One intruder alert,
and one safe.

They’ve purchased a
complete security system.

Obviously, they don’t
plan to donate this.

Sir, the poor
don't have a roof over their heads.

What will they do with
CCTV cameras and alarms?

I've already asked for
the details...

...about who it was delivered to,
and when.

- Well done, Sukhdev.
- Thank you, sir.

If you speak boldly, no one
dares to ask you any questions.

Everybody cooperates.

Thank you.

[George] Rajendra.

[George] ‘Come.’

Didn't I tell you, Rajendra,
the money will come.

Sorry, brother.

I doubted you.

No need for an apology, Rajendra.

The state that I was in,
I would've doubted myself.

This is the 25% advance
you had asked for.

Help me bring my revolution
to fruition, Rajendra.

Brother,

just give me three weeks,

[Rajendra] ‘everything
will be ready.’

[phone pings]

[Pradeep] ‘Chhatarpur Enclave..’

[Pradeep] ‘Imtiaz,
I am sending you an address.’

[footsteps]

[gunshot]

[Satish] ‘Mandarji was right.’

It will be very difficult
to fill such a huge gap.

There is a lot of difference
between 1978 and today.

Back then, high value currency
was in the hands of a few.

Today,
it can impact many more people.

Yes, I agree with you.
But I... Just a moment.

Yes, General.
Any luck?

Sir.

Thank you.

- Sir.
- Sir.

- Captain Imtiaz, well done.
- Sir.

- Coffee?
- No, thank you, sir.

- Do you mind if I...
- [Vaidya] ‘No. Please go on.’

She could be an important link.

But she won't speak up
so easily.

She was, after all,

masterminding explosions
on 25 planes.

[Pradeep] ‘Sir, we believe that the
buck doesn't stop here with her.’

Somebody was trying to kill her.
There is another mastermind.

The supreme art of war is to
subdue the enemy without fighting.

Whoever the mastermind is,

Parveena is the gateway to him.

[Shailesh] ‘Use our friends
in the media.’

If the ISI doesn't want us to reach
to Parveena,

then we won't.

- Right, sir.
-Sir.

What is this?

Exactly. What is this?

Parveena was a shield, Aziz.

For you, me...

[Waziri] ‘...and this entire plan.’

Where is she?

Sir.

Ms. Parveena Shehnaz.

[Pradeep] ‘Welcome home.’

Or...

...should we say, Karishma Sahay?

There are so many questions.

[Pradeep] Where do we start?

Let's start from the beginning.

Al Zohar,

[Imtiaz] Keerti Shah...

...Zakir, Suleiman, Iqbal,
Pritpal, Papaji.

[Imtiaz] ‘How were you connected
to all these people?’

We already know about
Dharamveer Demolitions, the RDX...

[Imtiaz]...the printers, Samshera
Salts, and Aravali Transport.

And we even know...

...that you were
to blast 25 planes in India.

[Imtiaz] ‘Two printers per plane,
right?’

Your travel history. All paid
through Dream Help Foundation.

In the past three months,
you have travelled all over India.

[Imtiaz] ‘Why?’

Maybe
she went to collect donations.

[Pradeep] ‘Right?’

But why?

Dream Help Foundation
was receiving quite big donations.

What was the name?

[Pradeep] ‘Oaza charities.’

[Pradeep] ‘Here.’

We can wait.

We have a lot of time, Parveena.

You wish.

[phone pings]

[Pilot] ‘Ladies and
gentlemen,’

‘We have commenced our descent
to Kathmandu.’

‘Please fasten your seatbelts.
Thank you.’

[phone rings]

Hello.

[Ramlogan] ‘Never say please,
Pradeep.’

‘When Uri was attacked,
my family was on vacation...’

‘...in Kashmir
and it was hell.’

You tell me what you want.

Oaza charities
and Oaza International, London.

I need to know who is running
these organisations.

[Ramlogan] ‘Oaza charities...’

..and Oaza International, London.

Give me some time.

I'm not sure how much time I have.

I'm on it.

Money is so valuable,
isn't it Madhuraji?

Yes.

You can buy anything with it.

Even the trust of the poor.

Get everyone ready.

Start the training.

Okay.

Donate so much money
in the village...

...that no one ever doubts
who is running their house.

They are dependent on us,

not the government.

[Sukhdev] ‘Jannat. Named after
heaven. Work like the devil.’

It seems to be
an old property, sir.

[Sukhdev] ‘Belonged
to one Ashfaq Behrami.’

[Sukhdev] ‘Purchased in 2006
by Whelve Holding Company.’

Hold on, sir.
One moment.

Good morning Sir.

[Pradeep] ‘Sukhdev?’

[Gulati] I want all the details
of this file.

Sukhdev, hello?

Good morning Sir.

[phone rings]

Hello.

[Gulati] ‘Okay.
I'm on my way.’

‘Good afternoon Sir.’

[Sukhdev] ‘Sir, Gulati sir's memory
is getting weak.’

‘Before he forgets you,
please come back.’

You are too much, Sukhdev.

I'll call you back.

Greetings, Sir.

- Get a charger for this, please.
- Sure.

[Vaidya] ‘On the 15th of September
2016,’

‘the department has received currencies...’

‘...seized from a godown in
Amritsar, state of Punjab.’

‘Money in denominations of 1000 and
500 rupee Indian currency notes...’

‘...was received for inspection
and ratification.’

‘The necessary assessment
has been conducted.’

[Vaidya] ‘It is confirmed
that the currency notes...’

‘...captured in Punjab
worth 90 crore received...’

...for verification
from the office...

...of the National security advisor
are counterfeit.

[Vaidya] ‘The received series
was revised in 2002...’

‘...with additional
security features.’

Said currency is printed
on very high quality paper...

...with most security
features intact...

...barring the additional
security features.

First, 90 crores of counterfeits
are seized in Pathankot.

With 25 kilos of RDX.

[Pradeep] ‘Another 25 kilos of RDX
was on its way to Chennai.’

Sir, as per Parveena's
travel record...

...in the past three months,
she has travelled to Punjab...

...Tamil Nadu,

[Pradeep] ‘Chhattisgarh
and Nagaland.’

‘Sir, is it not possible’

that the remaining
50 kilos of RDX...

...was being sent
to Nagaland and Chhattisgarh?

[Pradeep] ‘And what if,’

like Punjab, along with the RDX
they had a plan to send...

[Pradeep] ‘...counterfeit notes
to the other three places also?’

- You are trying to say that...
- There are...

...three more papajis
that we need to find.

You can't be serious, General.

[Vaidya] ‘It's not impossible,
sir.’

If they had contacted
one separatist group...

...and were sending them RDX
and money...

...who is to say that
they were not trying...

...to activate other
separatist groups in India?

[Vaidya] ‘We seized the RDX, but
what about the counterfeits?’

How will we ever be able
to deal with it, sir?

Let's focus on any chatter
among separatist groups.

Any major recruitment,
regrouping and arms purchases.

Take help from the bureau, analysis
wing, everyone if you need to.

And crack this Parveena Shehnaz.

Sir.

Sir.

Come on, tell us.

Whom do you work for?

So, we are still playing
the silent game, aren't we?

Okay.

We’ll begin then.

[Pradeep] ‘Captain?’

Counterfeits, right?

[Imtiaz] ‘First RDX,
then counterfeit money.’

Then separatist groups.

You made a very good plan.

Or should I say,
your boss did?

[Pradeep] ‘Whosever it was.
Superb plan.’

But unfortunately,
it can't be accomplished.

You know why?

Because we won't let it.

Never.

Mandarji, any digital
solutions that can be accelerated?

We can encourage people...

...to digitally pay
for government services.

[Mandar] ‘Every family’s
basic expenses...’

‘...are on their daily needs.’

Like electricity, water supply,
taxes, communication sectors...

...rail travels, etcetera.

True. If we attract people towards
digitization for these payments...

...then at least
the basics will be sorted.

But what about withdrawals?

Everything can't be solved
by digitization.

This is the most difficult
thing, Satishji.

Especially in the rural areas...

...where most of the dealings
are done through cash.

[Mandar] ‘We have to start to
strengthen the infrastructure...’

‘...of cooperative banks to have
less impact in rural areas.’

And as per the designs
of new notes...

...calibration of ATMs
all over the country...

...is going to be a real task.

[door knock]

- [Shailesh] ‘Yes?’
- Sorry, sir.

Sir, this arrived for you.

Everything on Parveena Shehnaz.

[Shailesh] ‘It's sent by a
national agency of investigations.’

[phone pings]

[Pradeep] ‘Leyland University.’

‘Post graduate
in international law,’

first division.

Her brother is in Guantanamo.

[Imtiaz] ‘Implicated in the 07/07
London blasts.’

[phone rings]

Sorry, sir.

Sir, may I?

Go ahead.

Sir.

Yes, Ramlogan.
Please tell me you've got it.

[Ramlogan] ‘Not exactly
like you wanted.’

But I have some information.
It may be useful to you.

[Ramlogan] ‘I couldn't find out
who runs Oaza.’

But their listing
in London stock exchange shows...

...that their majority
stakeholder is a private fund.

[Ramlogan] ‘It’s called,
Whelve Premium Holdings.’

Whelve Premium Holdings?

Yes.

I sincerely think I owe you
more than a vacation this time.

You owe me nothing, my friend.
Go do your thing.

Sir,

[Pradeep] ‘we need
to find out about...’

..Whelve Premium Holdings.
Based out of London.

It's a private fund.

Whelve Premium Holdings,
a private British fund.

Incorporated in January 2006.

Six months later,
that is in July 2006...

...a supermarket chain
opens up in London.

By the name
of Oaza International.

Whelve Premium Holdings
is the majority stakeholder...

...of Oaza International.

[Pradeep] ‘In the same year,
that means 2006 again...’

...along with forming
Oaza International...

...Whelve Holdings purchases
99.5 percent shares...

...of a defunct bank in Luxembourg.

The name of the bank
is Equality bank.

But the same bank
was previous known as...

...Wellspring bank.

The same Wellspring bank
whose lead promoter...

...was implicated in 2005...

...for terror-funding
and hawala nexus.

Sheikh Hasan Waziri,
Pakistani radical.

He died five years ago in prison,
completely alone.

No family members attended his
burial, nor was there a funeral.

[Pradeep] ‘Sufiyan Behrami,’

Hasan Waziri's wife...

...and the granddaughter
of Ashfaq Behrami.

And this, is the ancestral land
of Ashfaq Behrami.

Jannat Mahal, Chhatarpur.

[Pradeep] ‘In the same year,
2006 again...’

...this whole property
was bought by none other than...

[Pradeep] ‘...the same.’

Whelve Holdings.

[Pradeep] ‘Now let’s come to
Leyland University.’

Parveena studied
international law here.

Sir, please note the year,
from 2006 to 2008.

[Pradeep] ‘And this,
is Ehsaan Waziri.’

Tenured professor,

international law,
Leyland University.

From the year 2005 to 2014.

He is the only son of Hasan Waziri
and Sufiyan Behrami.

And the sole inheritor
of Hasan Waziri's wealth.

He was dropped from the faculty
in the year 2014.

For the suspicion of running
a secret Jihadi blog.

Sir...

Good job.
Get more information. ASAP.

Sir.

Sir.
