"10 am on the clock, and we are standing outside the courthouse. You can see, there are so many people standing around us!

"Today the division bench is finally going to declare the judgment of 'Mangala Rape Case' which had created a great stir in every part of the country!"

"We all know what happened with that 10-year-old girl. But still, let me tell you again today. Mangala was kidnapped by seven men while returning from school, then held by them for several days, and have been gang raped, then got killed brutally!

The trial for this case started on 16th January 2019, before the district session court judge!

After two months, the case was transferred to the High court, and after a strong fight over one long & painful year, considering all the evidence, today the court will give the judgment.

This case got support from politicians, celebrities to common civilians. Everyone joined the movement for justice!"

The media persons were reporting out of the courthouse since morning. Everyone is waiting patiently to hear the much-awaited judgment!

It was a long wait, in the last year and two months so much happened!

The country and the world witnessed the largest movement of justice for the little girl, who lost her life before even it could start!

This one case brought everyone out of their house, and united forgetting religion, caste, class, and everything else!

Everyone showed their support towards the girl, and protest against the criminals!

However, a black Mercedes Benz stopped in the court premises with two additional cars, gaining every people's attention, and reporters ran towards the car.

Five bulky men stepped out from the other cars and stopped every single reporter to come anywhere close to the car!

The door to the Mercedes opened and stepped out a woman, wearing a white saree with a black overcoat. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail, with a no-makeup look!

Beautiful, smart, and elegant, were the words that could be matched with her personality!

With a proficient attitude on her face, she glanced at her surroundings carefully!

"Madam, today is the judgment day, do you think the girl will get the right justice?"

"Madam, what do you think about women's safety?"

"Madam, you had won so many tuff cases, you are also a great social worker, what is your personal opinion about this case?" The reporters fired so many questions at the lawyer.

She stared at the reporters for a brief moment and heard all their questions, then spoke calmly, "If you want answers, then wait till the judgment! Let's talk after the judgment!"

With the said words, she strode inside the courthouse with her bodyguards and assistant, without even sparing another glance at the people outside.

"Good morning, Ms. Chakraborty!"

The lady stopped in her tracks and swirled around towards the man standing with a foxy grin on his face.

"Morning to you too, Mr. Joshi!" She wished him back maintaining the calm, and polite smile on her face.

The middle-aged man standing opposite her nodded with a big smile, and spoke again, "The weather is very beautiful today, don't you think so? Anyways good luck for today!

I am very sad to say that today you are going to lose, and it's going to be the first failure of your life, Ms. Chakraborty!"

The opposition lawyer taunted her with a wolfish grin on his face.

He is counted as one of the best criminal lawyers in the state, always too confident about his win!

"I wish you very good luck today. And you are right, the weather is very beautiful today!" The young lady didn't react, nor responded to his mocking, and wished him back with a similar expression!

"Now please excuse me!" She turned around and walked towards the couple sitting on the bench, waiting for the judge and justice for so long!

"Mr. & Mrs. Sarkar!"

The middle-aged couple turned around, and a certain relief and hope flashed in their eyes.

The lawyer approached them with a small smile, and pat the woman's shoulder reassuringly, "Today we will get the much-awaited justice, please be patient for some more time!

As I promised you, I cannot return your daughter, but I will make those swine pay for the crime!" She reassured them firmly, boosting their confidence!

The judge came inside shortly and took her seat, before starting the session, "Today the court will give judgment for the 'Mangala rape & murder case.'

This case will be considered one of the most brutal and barbaric in history!

After considering all the evidence, and listening to the argument of the accused, and the victim's lawyers, I award a death sentence to all the seven accused involved in this case and they should be hanged to death!

And the court issues a fine of 10 lakh rupees on the media house for disclosing the name of the victim!" The judge announced the verdict in a loud and clear voice!

"Besides being a Judicial Officer, I am also a human being and can hear the groan of the victim. Women are still facing crime and discrimination from males in our society and we still see gender bias in our society!

But today's judgment should send a strong message to the people and that is the need of the hour!" The judge stated her thoughts after finishing the judgment.

The courtroom erupted into loud cheers and claps as the judge announced the verdict. The couple cried out in pain but also in relief. They received justice, after the longest and hardest fight of their life!

The lawyer looked at them with teary eyes, and finally smiled in relief!

Today's victory was not just like any other victory, it was different, and it's a big achievement!

A sigh of relief escaped from her lips, it would be a lie if she says that she was not stressed, not nervous!

But somehow somewhere she had the belief, that they will win!

She turned towards her opponent lawyer, who had a very solemn expression on his face after the loss, and a soft chuckle left her throat!

"Condolences for your loss, Mr. Joshi. I must say, you had laid your cards very tactfully, but as you said I never failed before, so how could I fail today?

Now if you excuse me, I have to go. Best of luck with your next case!" She returned the taunt, with interest, before walking out of the courtroom with a victorious smile!
