This proof was two-fold.

"As far as I can tell… there was never any mission by the name of Operation Redtape. Nothing that actually involved combat at least. If there ever was such a mission, it had to have come from the highest ranks and kept completely off records. But 4 people were dishonorably discharged from the army because of it including Karthick. The list is here…" Zack said handing over a bunch of papers having the information on those 4 people. The information was brief but it still covered all the basics like schooling, family, and work history.

One of the evidence in the drive also contained what Karthick had sent to Adithya as proof.

This proof was two-fold.

The first part was, of course, the money trail. The money he got for confessing and accept the conviction. It is not that much of a stretch to guess that Karthick was coerced. After all, he was in the police custody while his wife was left out in the open… vulnerable.
