Mark's POV:
The thing is the judge offered to Lucas an opportunity of being heard. So he has the right to explain on his behalf to the court about the incident that happened and Lucas started explaining it to the judge.
Lucus: I don't agree with the the acquisitions claimed on me, sir. Actually, on that day I just helped Ria from my son, so the fingerprints got tallied accidentally, that's it, it does not mean I attacked her. So I am requesting the honourable court to think about it once again before giving punishment to me by looking at the false evidence.
Tom: If in that case then why did you tried to escape from the city?
Lucas: I didn't tried to escape from the city. I tried to escape from John. But now I realised it is John's trap by making me believe that I escaped from him but actually he plotted a plan in such a way and got succeed by trapping me with this case.
