Nurse: September 13th (after a pause) but on that day Dr. Newm didn't came for inspection. It was Friday and the operation day for Dr. Newm. And I don't remember that in my whole ever any doctor had given me any medicine. We ask the patient attendant to purchase it from the medical store. JamE: No more questions. So it is very much clear now that either one of them is lying the ward boy may be the nurse. According to me he actually didn't saw and heard anything. He is lying because he was tired with police investigations and these kind of people like the ward boy are the one who in their whole life do nothing special. But they also want to be famous like others and it was the best opportunity for him to be famous and finding his name in newspapers. I think we need some more time for proper investigation in this case and up to when nothing is proved against my client I want you to grant him bail. Judge: O.K the next date of the case is after fifteen days and Dr. Newm is granted bail but he cannot leave the city.

Court Scene ends

Anything can happen on next date so JamE starts his investigations from the very next day. Police has also got some time so they continued their investigations in a new direction. JamE joined hands with police in search of the real accused. Very soon the joint operands get some unfair things in the sandy beach hospital they busted a racket, which provide the medical accessories to the hospital. The crime they made is that they provide the old accessories after repackaging. JamE got the inkling he was waiting for and showed his intelligence to link this with the Nick's case. He complied his case and a day before the next date of the case JamE held a press conference and announced that the guilty in the case are found .The police has them in their custody and we will surely get our client (Newm) out of this case.

Court Scene - II

JamE: I can't prove that Dr. Newm is innocent alone I want everyone here to believe that he is innocent. As when this started, prosecution tried to show that Newm is the accused in this case but they were unable to provide the court some rigid and true witnesses. I don't want to criticize them actually they were also not aware of the truth but they find Dr. Newm suspicious and so they compiled their case according. It's a fact that how we try to look upon something it looks like that to us. The court has seen Dr. Newm as accused but now when we don't have any witness against him I want everybody to consider him as innocent. Now I will try to prove some points. First I want everybody to have a look upon the career of Dr. Newm, his achievements in the field of medicines is substantial, according to hospital authorities he is always present for his patients. No doubt about that he is a marvelous doctor and I can welcome a lot of witnesses to prove that. Out of them I want to ask the most important one regarding the case Mr. Nick to please come up in the witness box.

JamE: Forgetting that humblest experience for the mean time, how will you rate Dr. Newm.

Nick: No doubt about that he is an intelligent and a caring doctor.
