'Why will I leak any chats? They were evidence'
India, Oct. 10 -- Continued from page 1
It's being said that my portrayal (in the show) was some kind of 'satire', but I'd like to state three things. First, I am fighting for the honour of my family. Self-respect is very important for any individual. Secondly, it is for the honour of the law enforcement officers, be it NCB, Customs or any department. Anti-drug operations are a serious thing. Officers shed their blood to fight (for the country): I have seen and been on operations where my staff suffered head injuries and legs were broken. You can't make a satire at the expense of this. Thirdly, it is a matter of the national emblem - you cannot show a middle finger and play with national honour! As a citizen, I will definitely fight for these things.
I had filed a writ petition before the Bombay High Court, wherein I had to present evidence. So, why will I 'leak' (the chats), what is my motive? I will bring it to court. In any case, these things will come out when arguments happen (in court). The matter is subjudice. I have also submitted the 65B certificate (A 65B certificate is a legal document required under India's Evidence Act, 1872 to authenticate electronic records, making them admissible as evidence in court).
This is a matter handled by my legal counsel, so it will be very immature to comment on anything that I'm not aware of. I'm not that well aware of these kinds of issues. It's the first time I'm dealing with this.
No, nothing as of now. I'm just focusing on the suit which I have filed, and I'll be fighting for justice.
(cuts in) Not just my own, but the dignity of the department and officers also. So that next time, nobody makes a satire on cops or the law enforcement.
I am serving the government of India. So, like a loyal soldier, wherever I'm posted, I will be serving there. I will do my duty, that's it....
