"There's been no movement on this case, Mrs. Khan." "Look, I really have no choice." "But you know, maybe.. maybe there's somebody at school.." "..who will remember something." "You know, maybe you can go door to door, class to class." "Door to door and homes, and something.." "You know I've done that already." " But, you know.." "Maybe there's something else that you'll find." "You see these files?" "These are all those waiting for justice too." "Look, I'm sory, Mrs. Khan. I truly am."

"Mighty Allah had even asked Ibrahim to sacrifice his son." "And without asking a single question, Ibrahim agreed to sacrifice him." "It's our turn today." "It's our duty to let our blood flow for the cause of Islam." "This is what Allah demands!" "This is what Islam demands!" "No, no, no, no." "No." "You are lying." "Wait.." "Wait.." "Why, brother?" "Don't you believe that the Lord had asked for Ismail's sacrifice?" "No, no." "My Ammi has told me the stoy." "Saint Ibrahim did not doubt the compassion of the Lord." "No, no, no." "No." "The stoy is an example of his immense strong faith and belief." "And that's the reason.." "..why despite being incited by a stranger repeatedly.." "..Saint Ibrahim did not waver from his path of righteousness." "No." "He didn't listen to the stranger." "He was sure Allah would never allow the blood of his progeny to be shed." "And he was right." "The mighty Allah saved Ismail's life." "My Ammi also said, "Rizvan.." "..this stoy shows that the path of Allah is that of love.." "..not of hatred and war."" "You are lying." "Dr. Faisal Rehman is a liar." " You are lying." "Look." "The meaning of the stoy is clear." "Dr. Faisal Rehman is a liar." " Our brother here speaks the truth." "Allah's path is that of compassion." "That's why his loved ones are called 'blessed by the compassionate!" "'" "Dr. Faisal Rehman is a liar." "Ask him who was that stranger?" "I'm not lying!" "You are lying!" "Our times demand.." " Ask him.." "The stranger who tried to veer Ibrahim from his path.." "..was he an infidel?" "How does it matter who he was?" "But Doctor, who was he?" "Listen I can explain eveything." "Brother, tell us who he was." "Satan!" "Satan!" "Satan!" "The world is strange, Mandira." "The more I ty to understand it.." "..the lesser I understand." "I miss you." "Hello." " Hello." "Bhai.." "You?" "Where are you?" "fbi." "Do you have a number for the fbi?" "fbi?" "Why?" "Please." "It's our college, and they are pushing us around." "I wonder why they are so excited." "That too for this President." "Lousy pods of garlic!" "I love it." "There are no better cusswords than Indian ones." " Really." "Boys and girls." "Come on." "This is the man you waited for hours to see." "Let's give him a warm round of applause." "I present to you, the man, the legend." "The president of the United States of America." "Alright, yes."

"My name is Khan, and I'm not a terrorist." "I don't understand." "He is strange." "First, he was standing silently." "Then all of a sudden, he was screaming." "And what was he screaming.." "I'm not a terrorist." "I'm not a terrorist." "Strange." "There's something more to his stoy." "Yes." "But why are we after this stoy?" "Listen, Raj." "This can't be our project." "I don't want to get into this Khan stoy. I'm scared." "Scared because he is a Khan?" "If he was a Khanna, you wouldn't be, right?" "What do you mean?" "You know what I'm saying, Komal." "Listen, this is going to be my project." "Are you with me?" "He's been following the President for some weeks now." "And we.. frankly can't know whether he's a 'Jihadi' or not." "I have made a mistake again, Mandira." "And now, the President is angy with me." "He has even told the judge about it." "That's why the judge has asked me to be shut away." "He has also ordered that I should meet a psychiatrist." "He says he will meet me after that." "I will tell him then that I'm not an enemy." "I'm not evil." "I am unable to say anything now, Mandira." "I'm vey scared." "His name is Rizvan Khan." " Rizvan Khan." " Yes." "They are not saying anything beyond that right now." "I knew the police wasn't going to tell us anything.." "Now?" "Now what?" "There are other ways of finding out." "Come on, let's go." "Guys, you know this is illegal." "Yes." "And you never do anything illegal, right?" "Here." "Complete information on Rizvan Khan." "House, work address, social security number." "Credit records, salay statement." "In short, his entire life!" "Wow, dude, Inder you're a rockstar." " Yes, thanks." "Bye." " Okay, okay, okay." "Stay out ofjail." "Yeah, I'll call you back." "Bye." "Yeah, I'm telling you, it's a great piece for your paper, okay." "This man, Rizvan Khan, is a simple guy." "He sells beauty products for a living." "Listen." "He's no enemy combatant." "That's what you think." "I just interviewed an extremist in a Kabul prison last year." "He was just a tailor." "There's no stoy here, bud." "This place is strange, Mandira." "There are no windows to any room and the bathrooms don't have a door." "And the toilet has a lock." "My eyes burn and I feel sleepy too." "At times, it's vey hot here." "At other times, it is vey cold." "I told them I would repair their air conditioner.." "..but they won't let me." "They don't even tell me the time so that I can pray." "That's why evey time I feel scared.." "I bow and pray." "Oh, sory guys, sory." "Give me two minutes, okay." "Look, I've looked over the details." "I'm not really interested, but.." "..why don't you ty Bobby Ahuja, at PBC." "He might able to help you." "Okay." "Alright." "But why?" "Why do you want to meet the President?" "Why do you know so much about the President?" "Why were you reading up on the President?" "Do you know these people?" "Azhar Mahmood, Omar Khan.." "I think they are angy.." "..because I'm not able to answer their questions about the Al Qaeda." "But I don't know anything about them." "Mandira, I should have read up on Al Qaeda before." "Why?" "Why were you at the Rally?" "Okay, what?" "It's time for his session with me." "As ordered by the judge." "Do you really buy this, "My wife told me to meet the President" shit?"" "Would it matter if I said yes?" "Hello." " Hi." "Raj." " Raj, Bobby Ahuja." "Please sit." "I didn't have your number or I would have called to tell you that.." "..I can't cover the Rizvan Khan stoy." "I have a busy schedule." "I have no time for another two months." "You know othemise, you know I would've done something." "But.. you know what I mean?" "If you don't mind me asking, sir." "Was this photograph taken before 9/11?" "Yes." "Why?" "What's so funny?" "No, it's not funny at all actually." "They confused a Sikh for a Muslim and you changed your entire life." "And here, they are not even treating a Muslim like a human.." "..and you aren't able to change your schedule?" "Thank you for your time, sir." "You have one new message." "Hi Raj, this is Bobby Ahuja from PBC." "Don't forget to watch the news tomorrow." "My name is Khan, and I'm not a terrorist." "Mr. President." "Rizvan Khan of Banville California was arrested.." "..on June 15th at the CLA Presidential Rally." "He has been accused of being a terrorist.." "..and has been jailed for the last 15 days." "Without any evidence." "And without legal representation." "And today, we have with us Mr. and Mrs. Zakir Khan." "Family of Rizvan Khan." "Imran, the Khan from the bus is on PBC." "Quick, switch on the N!" "Vey angy and vey upset." "I mean, how can anyone call him a terrorist?" "That too without any evidence." "Tell them how last month Bhai called for the fbi." "Bhai had called last month." "He wanted the number for the fbi." "He wanted to report some terrorist recruiter called, Dr. Faisal Rehman." "Yo, how's business, asshole?" "Fuck you." "I mean we're told to report suspicious characters." "Participate in.. protecting the county from extremists." "And then when we do that.." "..we're just put into the jail, like my brother." "Yeah, this is judge Preston, can you give me the fbi please?" "The question over here is, not why he's tying to meet the President." "The question is, what's wrong in an ordinay citizen.." "..wanting to meet the President of his county?" "Or is it just wrong for a Muslim man to even ty?" "And as Rizvan Khan continues to be treated as guilty.." "..until proven innocent, for PBC News, my name is Bobby Ahuja." "And I'm not a terrorist." "He is right." "Zakir Bhai is right." "We are told to report to the government any information.." "..we have on any terrorist activity." "And when we do that, what happens is before you." "Why is this being asked over and over again?" ""Why does Khan want to meet the President?"" "What's the harm if an ordinay citizen wants to meet the President?" "What's wrong?" "Or then tell us clearly that Muslims don't have right to do so." "Yes, good afternoon." "This is Tracy Brennan.." "..Chairperson of the American Autistic society in San Francisco." "Would you put me on to your officer in-charge of the.." "..Rizvan Khan case, please?" "This is about the Rizvan Khan case." "Any information you have on Rizvan Khan." "Look I've been calling all morning." "I need to know where Rizvan Khan has been taken, please." "Hello, hello." "My name is Rizvan Khan." "Khan, from the epiglottis." "I want to report a man." "I have to report a man." "I met him at a downtown mosque." "I met him at a downtown mosque." "His name is Dr. Faisal Rehman." "Faisal Rehman, he works at the St. Benedicts Hospital." "He is a bad man." "He is a vey bad man." "Your call helped them arrest Dr. Rehman." "Eight others were arrested with him." "It's a big catch, Rizvan." "You are free to go now." "You are free." "Hey, watch it." "Finally, Rizvan Khan's innocence has been proved." "He will be freed in a few moments." "A small, but increasing group of supporters have gathered here today.." "..and have shown no signs of leaving." "Bano, come quickly!" "Rizvan Khan has been released." "He's been freed." "Bare Essentials Mystique, Mandira's pe_ume.." "35 dollars, 99 cents." "On sale now, at Walmart." "Hey, you famous or something?" " On sale now at Walmart." "You some Guru or something?" "Some crazy lady was just here shouting about your.." "..innocence and what not." " Crazy lady." "Mandira." "Mandira was here." "Crazy lady, Mandira was here." "Where did she go?" "Where did she go?" "Where did she go?" "Where did she go?" " She went out the back way." "Mandira." "Mandira." "Mandira." "Sory Mandira, I couldn't meet you.." "..since I haven't fulfilled my promise to you yet." "But somehow Mandira, as soon as I saw you.." "..the pain in my chest vanished." "Where did Rizvan Khan go?" "And why does he want to meet the President?" "No one knows." "So why he wants to meet the President.." "..and what is his message about continues to remain a mystey." "This is Bobby Ahuja, PBC news." " Yeah, so.." "Thank you so much for this internship, sir." "We promise not to let you.." "Thank me later.." "First find this Khan.." "His stoy has moved thousands of Muslims." "I wish I knew where Bhai was, Raj." "He calls me." "Yeah." "Yeah, next time he calls me I'll let you know." "Yo, Paki loser." "Hey!" "My name is Abdul!" "You want a piece of me." "You show me the finger?" " Enough, okay buddy." "Come, I'll show you once and for all. - l'm done." "Come I'll show you!" "What you looking at?" "For a while now I have been fighting with myself." "I teach you about identity when my own has been changed so drastically." "My hijab is not just my religious identity." "It is a part of my existence." "It's me." "Khan stayed in room 22 only." "You want to stay in the same room?" "Only 25 dollars extra, to be a part of histoy." "And mind you, my name is Jitesh." "And I'm not a terrorist." "Mummy, I want to tell you something today." "Today I'm proud to be a computer hacker." "Ya.." "I have eaten already." "At least listen to what I'm saying first." "Hurricane Molly.. now moving at 125 miles per hour.." "..has severely hit the southern coast." "And the authorities around the southern region have been alerted." "We now go live to Alex, who's on location." "Thank you, Janice." "Attention all passengers.." "..E- 52 bus to Portland has been delayed by 10 minutes." "Again, E-52 Portland bus has a ten minute delay." "We regret the inconvenience."

"At this point we don't have any indication as to.." "Mama Jenny.." "Mama Jenny I have to go to her." "Raj.." "Bhai called.." "You wanted to know where he was, didn't you?" "Yes, Zakir bhai?" "He's going to Wilhemina." "Wilhemina?" "That's in Georgia, right?" "Ya.." "Somewhere there." "What is he doing there?" "He said that he has to meet some Mama Jenny there." "Mandira, there's going to be a delay in meeting the President." "I have come to Wilhemina, Georgia." "Mama Jenny and Funny hair Joel are in trouble." "There's too much water here, Mandira.." "..and I don't think Mama Jenny can swim." "She's a little fat." "Rizvan." "Mama Rizvan." "Rizvan." "What are you doing here?" "Mama Jenny, I'm happy, Funny hair Joel and you are not dead." "I'm happy." "Thank you for coming, Rizvan." "But you should not be here." " l'm happy, I'm here." "No, you must go." "No, you must go." " No, no, no." "Listen to me." " No, no, no." "You should not be here." "This one you cannot repair." "Now go." "Mama, Rizvan." "Oh, God the church is going to fall." "We're going to die." "The church is going to fall." "Hadith says that the Almighty does not judge by color or creed.." "..but by actions and deeds." "If that is the truth.." "..then Rizvan Khan by the sheer force of his actions.." "..has elevated the entire humanity in the eyes of God." "Just recently this man was arrested.." "..and tortured for being an enemy combatant of this county." "Wonder what the government officials would call this.." "..Muslim enemy combatant today?" "As he selflessly tries to save the remaining lives in Wilhemina." "Just a few days ago this man was called a terrorist.." "..and tortured mercilessly." "Today we wait for the response of the government officials.." "..as he tirelessly strives to save innocent lives." "If the authorities want to find the true enemy.." "Then they would find it in the grief and debris of Wilhemina." "It's a long journey to change the world." "But the first few steps have been taken by Rizvan Khan in Wilhemina." "Isn't it our duty now to take this journey fomard?" "Raj Burman, Star News." "Please don't take my baby away from me." "Please don't take my baby away from me." "Mandira, people are suffering here and are vey helpless." "I wish I could take all of them from here." "But I don't have the physical strength to do that." "Mama Jenny is right.." "This one.. this one I can't repair." "Now we can only await the Lord's merciful eye." "Mama!" "Mama!" "Mama!" "Mama!" "While several hurricane hit areas.." "..have suffered from government inaction." "One small town in Georgia is slowly getting back on its feet." "This group has brought something more valuable than money." "They brought themselves." "The US government may have forgotten the flood.." "..inflicted area of Wilhemina, Georgia.." "..but one man has refused to be indifferent.." "..to the plight of its inhabitants." "This one man has spared no efforts in helping.." "..rehabilitate the population of Wilhemina." "Looking at him as an inspiration today.." "..many Americans have rushed to Wilhemina.." "..and its neighboring towns to help in rebuilding the destroyed towns." "And all this just because of one man.." "..whose name is Rizvan Khan.." "..and who, in his own words, is not a 'terrorist'.." "Following the example of Wilhemina.." "..towns are being adopted across the county." "And while our militay is tied up in Iraq.." "..reconstruction of these towns.." "..has been taken on by ordinay Americans." "And today, as our special guest from Wilhemina.." "..we have the man, who got the whole ball rolling." "Mr. Rizvan Khan." "Oh no, no, no it's Khan." " Excuse me." "Khan." " Excuse me." "Khan." " One minute." "From the epiglottis, ma'am." "Khan." "I'm sory, Rizvan." "Maybe you could tell us why you want to meet the president?" "Senator, you need to take a look at these campaign accounts." " Later." "I want to watch this." "My beautiful wife, Mandira." "She.. she told me to go and meet the President ofAmerica." "A long tiring journey, Rizvan." "What kept you going?"

"And I'm sory." "I'm just really, really sory." "I'm sory Mrs.." " Sory is not good enough." "That's just not good enough." "Thank you for asking for leniency for me." "I didn't do it for you, I did it for your mom." "My mom won't forgive me." "She will." "She's a mom." "Mandira, this is Sarah." "Thanks." "Thank you for Reese." "And I hope and pray that Sam's soul rests in peace." "Mandira, we both know what it feels like to lose people we love." "I lost my husband to hate." "Don't lose Rizvan." "Let go of your anger, just let go." "I love you son." "Zakir, Hasina." "I'm leaving now.." "Bye, bye." "Bhai why do you have to leave so late at night?" "I've to go now." "It is three days to the Presidential election." "After that the President will change." "I have to meet him before that." "Now, I need to meet him now." "Now, now." "Leave me!" "You got Dr. Rehman arrested!" "You are an infidel!" "This is your punishment, Khan!" "This is your punishment!" "You have to die!" "Islam will never forgive you!" "Leave me!" "Oh Lord!" "The United States of America has a new President." "Doctor, he just got up." "Let me check all his vitals, lets go." "There are only two kinds of people in this world." "He died because of you." "Because of your surname!" "Leave me alone." "Go right now!" "This instant!" "Go now, now." "When should I come back, Mandira?" "I.." "I didn't die, Mandira." "No, you didn't." "Can I get a hug, please?" "Please." "I love you." " l know." "I love you too." "Today the President elect visits flood inflicted Georgia State." "The question is whether Rizvan Khan.." "..who has just been discharged from the hospital will get to meet him." "Khan has refused to go back home until he meets the President elect." "Raj Burman.." "Star News." "Khan.." "let's go home." "You don't need to do this now." "No, no, no." "Why?" " No, no, no." "I have to meet the President." "Ammi had said, "A Khan always keeps his word!"" "Folks, we'll make sure we do eveything we can.." "..to bring Georgia back on its feet." "Thank you." "After winning the election.." "..the President elect in his first Presidential tour.." "..has announced a special relief package.." "..for the flood inflicted Georgia State." "After offering aid to the state of Georgia.." "The President will go to New York from here to.." "..participate in the United Nations' special summit." "Back off please, clear the area." "Please clear the area." "The President has left." "Please." "That's Rizvan Khan." "Please back." " l want to see the President." "President's left please." "Rizvan Khan who has been in the news for all his efforts in Wilhemina.." "..is now at the Governor's mansion." "He has been tying to meet the President for a while now." "It's sad that he won't meet the President even today." "Rizvan Khan's supporters are quite dejected at this prospect." "However it looks like he'll face disappointment all over again." "A disappointed group of Khan's supporters.." "..are getting ready to turn back." "Copy that, Regal is on foot." "Repeat that please." " Regal is on foot." "Are you Rizvan Khan?" " Yes, sir." "Yes."
