-[Screaming] Show me your hands!

-I'm a police officer.

Keep your hands where we can see them!

I thought I heard signs of distress.

If this is our man Rav, he's gonna be covered.

I think we should avoid contamination and get forensics here.

I need your-- I need your radio.

This is DI Ray with DI Holden and SOC at the location.

We have one IC1 male, deceased.

The victim is known to us.

David Chapman.

There's no sign of the target Ravinder Mochani.

I need uniforms, helicopters, and every camera you've got.

Notify all units that Ravinder Mochani is now the prime suspect in the murder of David Chapman and should be considered armed and dangerous.

[Siren wails] [Indistinct conversation] ♪ [Conversation continues] [Vomits] -[Footsteps] -[Siren wails] [Dog barking] [Siren continues] [Panting] Shoddy application, or superhuman strength?

Perhaps a bit of both.

Or maybe Rav saw an opportunity and took it.

He wouldn't have left that behind willingly.

Great.

So, not only is Rav armed, he can't hear anything, he's nervous, scared, trigger-happy.

It's an added complication.

I gave your clothes to forensics, ma'am.

Er, uniform's just dropped off some fresh ones.

Thanks.

[Clive sighs] The fallout from this could be epic.

I think we can definitely assume we won't be the only ones looking for Rav Mochani tonight.

♪ [Theme music playing] ♪ So, Frank Chapman was shot in his home and then again outside the hospital.

Now, David Chapman has been shot in an abandoned gym where he was holding Rav Mochani.

There was no sign of a weapon at the crime scene, so, assuming Rav took it with him, he's either gonna toss it, or he plans on using it again.

Whose gun is it then?

Kwesi: We all know there were two kidnappers.

Maybe Rav managed to grab their firearm.

These days, there's only a few quid between loyalty and betrayal.

Who's to say one of them wasn't turned by the Mochanis?

Maybe we should bring both families in.

-Question them more thoroughly?

-No.

I've had enough of their "no comments" and "I don't knows."

The Chapmans and the Mochanis are being tailed.

DI Holden has eyes on all of them, so, let's see, if anyone makes a move.

Maybe we'll get lucky with the lab.

Where does she fit in to all of this?

Clive: Still think it's trafficking, ma'am.

Those pictures on Rav's laptop, it's like he had a shopping list.

But Rav didn't bring any of the other children into the country.

And the Indian authorities confirmed that, so, why just Sajna?

Maybe she is Rav's.

Rachita, there's something you'll wanna see.

♪ We've been rolling facial rec' on all the cameras around the crime scene.

Rachita: It's Rav.

Patrick: Yeah.

I must have missed him by minutes.

♪ Is that the gun?

...

There's something else, from another camera close to the crime scene.

An IC1 male running from the direction of the abandoned gym.

-Could be one of the kidnappers.

-That was my guess.

Nothing from facial rec' though.

But we'll keep searching all the cameras.

Well, thanks for keeping me in the loop.

No.

[Laughs] No, I mean, it was, it was... great, obviously.

But it might be nice to get to know you a bit as well.

You know Kerry warned me off you.

Kerry said that?

I mean, the thing is... casual is all I really want.

[Door opens and closes] [Indistinct chatter] The plates on the second kidnap van were false, just like on the first one.

We lifted a few prints, but, again, nothing to match them to.

We have nothing from the phone we found on Dave Chapman, either, but we do know that Rav Mochani's was switched off at the time of Frank Chapman's murder.

Last ping it recorded was after he left the restaurant Kish.

Doesn't mean he went to the hospital to shoot Frank.

It doesn't prove he went to Dawn's, either.

That flat seems to attract a lot of activity.

Yeah, I know.

We tried to dissuade him, to convince him to speak to somebody else, but he was adamant that you'd want to hear this.

How do you even know he has anything?

He's a corrupt officer who's harvested many criminal relationships over the years.

But Professional Standards would've been all over that.

Yeah, but the investigations are still ongoing.

You don't have to do it, Ray.

I wanna stress that your welfare is the priority here.

[Clears throat] Apparently, Rav Mochani's name has been leaked as prime suspect, and it's got out that he was recently paroled early from prison.

♪ Megan's family have made a complaint.

They are convinced that if he'd served his full term, then he'd still be inside, and their daughter would still be alive.

They want answers, understandably.

Of course.

And so, if Martin does have intel that could help, then it may even prevent further casualties.

Well, maybe I can reach out to the girl again.

Sajna.

I know she's mixed up in this somehow.

-She could be the key.

-Yeah, but what if she isn't?

Mochani's early parole is being viewed as a "woke" policy.

Beardsmore: Anyone sighting Mr. Mochani, or who knows his whereabouts, should contact the incident room immediately on the number behind me.

Under no circumstances should he be approached.

As already mentioned, Mr. Mochani has impaired hearing, which could make attempting to interact with him problematic.

Woman: Jeanette Smith, "Birmingham Gazette."

Do you think Rav Mochani killed Megan Parks and Frank Chapman?

This is a live case, so, I shall defer to the Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Inspector Ray.

First of all, no one is saying that Mr. Mochani murdered anyone.

Everyone has the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty, including him.

But what I would say is that he is a person of interest in the death of David Chapman and would urge him to either contact me or one of my team.

♪ Can we please stick to the subject of the briefing?

Sorry.

Woman: Is there a connection between the Mochani-Chapman feud and the increase in race-related violence erupting in the city in the past few days?

Man: Was Megan Parks caught in the crossfire of a gangland turf war?

We're exploring all angles, but suffice to say Megan Parks was a wholly innocent victim and we remain committed to finding her killer or killers.

Man: You ask people to stay vigilant, but vigilance doesn't stop bullets.

So, is it safe for any of us to go out while this man remains at large?

Man 2: There could have been another Megan Parks.

Man 1: What if it's a kid next time?

Kerry: As DI Ray has already emphasised, she and her team are utilising every resource at their disposal, and Mr. Mochani's apprehension is now their top priority.

Rav Mochani is innocent.

You need to be looking at Lou Kirkby.

Go on.

Kirkby was one of the original Chapman outfit back in the eighties.

Him and Frank were tighter than brothers, apparently, which is strange 'cause Frank never mentioned him once.

You knew Frank Chapman?

I'm surprised, you're surprised.

You just said -"were tighter than brothers".

-Yeah.

They had a big falling out 15-odd years ago, right before Kirkby started his stretch.

What was the fallout?

Money, a woman, job gone wrong.

No one really knows, and Lou's not telling.

But it went nuclear and he's been stewing on it ever since.

Where are you getting this from?

Kirkby was in here before I got transferred.

Right cock of the block, apparently.

So, you're giving me second-hand intel with no source to verify.

Doesn't change the facts, does it?

Kirkby had a score to settle, and a month after he gets out, Chapman's dead.

Why are you telling me this?

Is it not enough that you're bent?

And now you're a grass.

Must be something in it for you.

Something big.

Yeah, there is.

You want a reduced sentence.
