Conspiracy in Corporate Costume
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN a billion-dollar Asset Reconstruction Company, flanked by lawyers in black robes and clerks shuffling paper, is suddenly outwitted by a media house armed only with wit and words? The answer came this week in PT Media’s rejoinder to Edelweiss ARC — a reply that reads less like a legal filing and more like Shakespeare gate-crashing a courtroom.
Instead of dull legalese, PT Media’s director, journalist Kanwar Manjit Singh, delivers a performance. The rejoinder is witty, biting, and studded with literary jabs — the kind of document Edelweiss’s platoon of lawyers surely did not expect.
A few teasers from its pages: a false affidavit, a phantom trust with no link to the case, and not one but two sale certificates for the same property.
At one point the rejoinder deadpans: “When affidavits come from men already halfway out the door, it isn’t testimony — it’s theatre.”
There are glimpses of conspiracy, whispers of collusion, and the occasional muscleman cameo. But the real show is the language: Hamlet warning of smiling villains, Lord Denning declaring that fraud unravels everything, and a Shakespearean flourish about ants and elephants that will make readers smirk even as it stings.
And just when you think it’s over, the rejoinder signs off with Dusshera — promising silence until the festival that burns Ravana’s effigy, when hubris is reminded that it must end in flames.
For now, the ant has spoken. The elephant must wait.
Curious? That’s the point. Because this isn’t just a legal reply — it’s a six-page spectacle exposing frauds, fables, and falsehoods in prose you might actually enjoy reading.
