Sebastian was suspended after Susanna accused the police of selling the body to a medical college. This accusation, combined with the fact that the body had gone missing during the exhumation process ordered by the court, led to both Sebastian and Dileep being suspended from active duty.

Earlier, Dileep had confessed he never supervised the burial, which made the police look negligent and complicit in the disappearance.

The body was buried in a public cemetery after Dileep assigned the task to gravedigger Gopalan. However, since no one properly supervised the burial, the exact location became uncertain. When Susanna filed a habeas corpus and the police exhumed the grave, the body was no longer there, only Gopalan could eventually lead them back to it.

The film earlier established that the case was rushed to close quickly, with no proper investigation or supervision of evidence.

Susanna claimed the buried body was her husband, and DNA results initially confirmed this claim, which put Sebastian and Dileep in deeper trouble. However, later revelations showed the body was actually Sujatha's missing husband, the ring Dileep stole was the key proof that connected the body to a different family.

The ring stolen by Kesavan and hidden by Dileep later becomes the crucial evidence that contradicts Susanna's claim.

Kesavan stole a ring from the dead body and later confessed to Dileep, who kept it hidden. Dileep was torn between submitting it as evidence or selling it. The ring later proved crucial because Sujatha recognized it as her missing husband's ring, proving the buried body was actually hers, not Susanna's.

The ring was noticed early in the timeline as hinting at a larger story, and Kesavan's theft created a dangerous thread that would entangle everyone.

Susanna orchestrated her husband's murder and needed closure, a death certificate in another man's name. By claiming the body as her husband, she could get official documentation of his death without exposing the truth. She bribed officials to make this happen and filed a habeas corpus to force exhumation.

The film hints early that Susanna's description of the body had discrepancies that Sebastian initially noticed.

With the mortuary full and the case rushed to close quickly, Dileep suggested burying the body in a public cemetery. Sebastian assigned him the task, and Dileep passed it to gravedigger Gopalan. No one supervised the burial properly, which led to the body becoming untraceable.

The timeline shows the case was prioritized for quick closure over a proper investigation from the start.

When a dead body was found floating in the river, neither Sebastian's team nor the police from the opposite side wanted to claim jurisdiction. To shift responsibility, handyman Kesavan was bribed to push the body into Sebastian's jurisdiction, forcing them to handle the case.

This initial dispute sets in motion the chain of events that leads to the entire body mishandling crisis.

Susanna admitted to Sebastian that she orchestrated her husband's murder, though she denied actually killing him herself. She bribed officials to gain closure and have him declared dead under another name, allowing her to benefit from his death without facing investigation.

The DNA results that initially seemed to confirm Susanna's claim later became contradictory evidence when the ring surfaced.

Sujatha developed a real connection with Dileep while caring for his mother. One day, she found the ring and recognized it as her missing husband's. This revelation proved the buried body was hers, not Susanna's, turning the entire case upside down.

Earlier, Sujatha was introduced as a woman searching for her missing husband, making her eventual discovery a significant twist.

Gopalan was the drunk gravedigger who buried the body in the public cemetery. When the body went missing during exhumation, only Gopalan knew the actual location. He helped Sebastian and Dileep recover the body, which then led to the DNA testing that initially seemed to confirm Susanna's claim.

The burial detail that would come back to haunt them was introduced when Dileep passed the task to Gopalan without supervision.

Sebastian confronted Susanna, and she admitted to bribing officials for closure but denied killing her husband. She did confess to orchestrating his murder. Before she could leave for America, her brother attacked Sebastian and left him for dead in a well, though Dileep later rescued him.

The confrontation occurs after the case has unraveled significantly, and tensions reach their peak.

After Kesavan confessed to stealing the ring from the body, Dileep took it and kept it hidden. He was torn between submitting it as evidence or selling it for money. This decision to hide the ring rather than properly log it as evidence became a critical mistake that would later implicate both himself and Sebastian.

The ring's fate becomes a dangerous thread that entangles them later, as foreshadowed in the timeline.
