Movie Review-;
There are movies and documentaries about slain forest bandit Veerappan, and Zee5’s koose Munisamy Veerap pan – The Missing Veerappan Tapes joins the list. However, what makes it stand out is that it is perhaps the best one based on the exclusive files of Nakeeran, a leading Tamil investigative magazine. The foundation of the show is Veerappan’s never-before-seen tapes, as Gopal and his team document his life on camera. This is not a docume ntary of those directly or indirectly associated with Veerappan. Yes, they are there, including his daughter Vidya, but here, she and others become supporting actors to Veerappan, the protagonist. Advertised as a 6-episode do cumentary on the smuggler-poacher, koose Munisamy Veerappan ,
The Missing Veerappan Tapes has been presented as a web series. In the first three episodes, Veerappan recount s his poverty-stricken childhood, his introduction to hunting, which turns his hunger into his bread, the first ti me he takes a human life, and the trigger points behind most of his murders. For instance, the killing of DFO Srini va s, who was considered one of the best forest officers of the time, was based on a firm belief that Veerappan an d his aides should be reformed, blaming the officer for the death of the forest. Brigand’s sister. Veerappan did no t deny anything about his murderous nature. He admitted to taking out police officers who injured his gang mem bers or villagers near the forest areas where he roamed.
Veerappan had great compassion for the villagers who came to hunt him. But the police did not take kindly to th ose who turned informers. Episode 4, for example, is one of the hardest to watch because it focuses on the ‘alleg ed’ inhuman third-degree torture unleashed by the police, primarily from Karnataka, on suspected residents of M M Hills and its environs. Be Veerappan’s assistants or at least be aware of his movements. There are intervie ws with victims who describe the unspeakable atrocities they were subjected to – from severe beatings to electr ic s hocks to their genitals and the worst sexual abuse. Men, women and children are not spared and although th e National Human Rights Commission’s Sathasiva Commission found merit in the allegations and ordered the go vernments of Tamil Nadu and Karnataka to compensate the victims, precious little has been done till date.
The alleged perpetrators of these crimes returned as war veterans and received awards for their bravery, much to the consternation of rights activists. Like other serial criminals, they should be brought to justice. The show al so examines the accounts of Veerappan, which have long been the police’s version of events, most of which have been said to be fabricated. A large number of Veerappan gang members, whom the Special Task Force says were killed during the encounters, were innocent people who looked like the gangster’s men. A claim corroborated by autopsy reports, at least 69 people were shot dead at point-blank range. In episode 5, the tone of the document ary changes again and focuses on Veerappan’s claim that he is only a man seeking justice for those caught betw een him and the government.
He is not a terrorist, and yet, he said, he is the judge, jury and executioner in the cases of informants who inform the police about his whereabouts. He would kill them, sometimes not even spare the children – he said it was like nipping it in the bud. This particularly shook Nakiran Gopal, who never thought Veerappan would harm a child. U ltimately, it was the people in those areas who were caught between the devil and the deep sea. If they don’t talk to the police, they will be in trouble with the police and if they do, they will have to face Veerappan’s wrath.
In th e last episode, we talked about how Veerappan was admired by a section for his political ideologies, especia lly his opposition to Jayalalithaa and M.K. From exploring the apparent support of politicians like Karunanidhi, t o the mysterious death of his brother, the hosts throw in many discussions. Arjuna, in police custody, eventually pleads for amnesty. There’s a lot to chew on, including the late J. Jayalalitha’s admission that her 1996 election d efeat was the result of the famous Veerappan interview. Veerappan, Gopal was a murderer, ready to reform, but it was not a chance he was given, the details of which you won’t see here. Goose Munisamy Veerappan – The Uns een Veerappan Tapes packs a lot into its six chapters. The show will return for a second season 2 .
