Chapter 109 Eliminating the Profit-makers

Huba's words instantly made the atmosphere in the police station tense.

Many police officers looked around with panicked eyes and terrified faces.

They remembered what happened to the assistant deputy inspector just now. Could it be their turn now?

Even the captain of the action team, Gosa, who was standing nearby, felt nervous. This matter had become a big deal.

"I have received reports from many people that there are people in our police station who have committed crimes, extorted money, and committed all kinds of evil. Therefore, those who have reported their names below are temporarily suspended and are not allowed to leave the police station. They are subject to interrogation and investigation."

It turned out to be true. Those police officers who were used to bullying others were scared.

Without waiting for them to say anything, Huba began reading out the names of the police officers one by one.

There were less than eighty people in the Harreg Police Station, and Huba read out the names of nearly forty people at once, which meant that half of the police station would be dealt with.

"Deputy Director, we are innocent."

"Director, there are some things we have no choice but to do..."

Many people began to beg for mercy, and some even wanted to resist violently.

But when the ten armed policemen led by Rawdon came in and pointed their guns at them, these people became obedient.

"Deputy Director Monda, some people's crimes are not too serious. I think we can give them a chance to make meritorious contributions while serving their sentences," said Luoton.

"Chief, what do you think?" Huba asked.

"Well, let's keep half of them with less serious crimes," said Rawdon.

"Yes, Chief." Huba read out the names of twenty people again. These twenty people were exempted from detention and given the opportunity to make meritorious contributions while serving their sentences.

In fact, Roton knew very well that, let alone these forty people, there were almost no clean people in the police station, the only one at most was Huba.

It is impossible for him to really detain half of the people, so who will do things for him next?

This time, Huba and I had discussed this.

Huba is the bad guy, and I am the good guy.

There's nothing I can do about it. After all, I'm the director.

The glorious image must still be yourself.

The twenty police officers who had made up for their crimes were all surprised. From hell to heaven, it was like a roller coaster, with ups and downs in their lives. I believe they will perform well next time.

The others were soon taken away and imprisoned.

The remaining police officers were trembling with fear and dared not breathe.

They knew very well that Huba dared to do this obviously with the approval of the new director, which meant that the new director began to establish his authority.

But they actually felt a little more at ease in their hearts. Those people were finished, but they who were still standing here should have escaped this disaster.

"I will never tolerate those who break the law and commit crimes," said Rawdon. "Of course, there are rewards for those who abide by their duties. The overdue funds and bonuses we got back from the higher-ups this time were calculated based on 79 people. Now that there are quite a few less people, we will divide this part among the remaining guys."

Upon hearing this, the police officers present immediately cheered.

This means they can get a lot more money.

As for those former colleagues who were arrested, who cares?

They deserved it. It was their fault for going too far in the past.

Now their bonuses and salaries are used to help these people.

Seeing this scene, Roden sighed inwardly.

Even if you use a big stick, you have to give a fruit.

"Chief, please leave the interrogation to me." Gosa stood up and shouted.

Rawdon glanced at him but didn't say anything immediately.

"Please believe me, Director. I will make them confess all the facts of the crime, and it must be completed before the end of get off work today." Gosa was a little anxious and shouted again.

The new chief is really decisive and efficient. He has reorganized the police station and established his authority.

The most important thing is that he saw that the deputy chief Huba was obviously on the side of the new chief. With Huba's cooperation, Rotten could fully control the police station.

If I don't catch up with the trend, I will really be marginalized.

After all, he is the third most important person in the police station.

Wasn't it because of the situation that I was forced to slack off and do nothing in the past?

He is not stupid, but very smart. He knows very well that if he does not take side, the outcome will be dire.

Rotten turned his head and looked at Huba, who shook his head slightly in approval.

"Okay, I'll wait for your report before leaving get off work," said Roton.

"Yes, Chief!" Gosa saluted and immediately called a few police officers to follow him to the guard room.

Rawdon returned to his office and called Pirando.

…

"Chief, this is the latest news I have received. The interest groups in the Mindis Mountain Coal Mine are extremely large and may involve some big shots in the state. What do you think? Should I continue investigating? Or stop?" Roton asked.

He certainly couldn't directly tell the state finance minister, Rajiti, and as for the situation at the coal mine, Roton believed that Pirando must have his sources of information and it was impossible for him not to know that this place was related to some bigwigs in the state.

As to whether Pirando knew a specific person, Rawdon was not sure.

"Investigate, investigate thoroughly! No matter who is involved!" Pirando's tone was very firm. "Rotten, don't worry. Our police have had a very bad image over the years, and our performance in the Mumbai terrorist attacks has put our police under tremendous pressure. The state government wants to use this to suppress the power of the police. Not only the Pune District, but even the state headquarters has been under tremendous pressure from the chief minister."

Rodon's performance in the Mumbai terrorist attacks cannot completely change people's views on the police. It can only be said that he is a bright spot introduced by the police, and the police's bad image has not been completely reversed.

In fact, Pirando doesn't care much about whether the image of the police can be reversed. This kind of thing is not something he, as a district chief, can solve. He just wants to take back the power of the district police.

Luoton knew that the power struggle between local governments and the police was still quite serious.

Because the state director general reports directly to the federal home minister, this made the state chief minister a little unhappy.

The fact that the state's largest violent organization cannot be fully controlled and dispatched by him must be unsatisfactory to the Chief Minister, who holds the real power in the state.

After receiving a positive response from Pirando, Rotten didn't think about it any more.

Apparently, the state administration and the current chief minister of the state are not on good terms.

That's better.

If both parties are just getting along, then the best thing to do is to do nothing and just muddle through.

A few hours later, after Huba had dealt with the salary and bonus issues, he knocked on the door and entered Roton's office.

"Director, everyone admires you very much." Huba said.

"This is what everyone deserves." Luoton said with a smile.

This time, he helped the police officers and also demonstrated the power behind him.

If he didn't have a background, how could he get so much money from the sub-district police station? The power of the police station must be in his own hands. In the future, he would need this power to deal with local powerful landlords like Raj and the private armed forces at the coal mine.

No matter how incompetent these police officers are, their numbers can put some pressure on the other side.

And the situation on the other side isn't much better. They're all a mob, all the same.

"Hu Ba, to be honest with you, I came to Harreg this time with a mission." Rotten asked Huba to sit down and said.

Huba didn't say anything, but in fact he could guess something.

After all, when Roton took office, he stood out from the crowd. It was obvious that he had the support of the leaders above him, but it was not known which level of leaders they were.

However, judging from the fact that Rawdon was able to get so much money this time, it can be seen that he is definitely above the district police station, possibly the county one.

Raj said that it was impossible for Rawdon to get the money, and he had no doubt about that.

Because he knew very well the ability of Raj's elder brother Leser.

But even so, Rawdon not only got what he deserved from the Harreg Police Department, but also got a bonus.

I'm afraid this is not related to the county police department, but the district police department?

Thinking of this, Huba's heart trembled. Maybe there really was a chance this time.

"I have to deal with the armed attacks and unrest here, as well as the Mindis Mountain coal mine incident," said Rawdon.

"Chief, I, Huba, will cooperate with you even if it costs my life." Huba immediately stood up and said.

He was born a Dalit and was well aware of the miserable life that his group was living.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Unfortunately, he is only a deputy director and has no ability to change the current situation.

Because he knew very well that he was just a facade that the higher-ups wanted to put up to appease the Dalit class and to show to the outside world, and that his power was actually very small.

How could the people above treat him as a real deputy director? For example, before Luo Dun came, when he went to the sub-district police station to ask for money, no one paid any attention to him.

Now he finally sees hope. Rodon has support from above and is a hero of Mumbai. He feels that he can place his hopes on Rodon.

After all, as soon as Rawdon came, he didn't give Raj's family any face, and his attitude was very clear.

"But these things still need to be considered in the long run." Roden said, "I need more information. I believe you should be able to provide me with a lot."

"Yes, Chief, I will tell you everything I know." Huba said.

Then he told Roden about the situation here.

Compared to Du Ke and Lisa, Huba's words were obviously more detailed, some of which were things that the other two had not mentioned.

How can you say that Huba is on the front line, and many times he has directly experienced many of these things.

"Reha Kaushik, can you get in touch?" Rawdon asked, "If you can, please convey my good will."

Reha Kaushik, leader of the Dalit rebel force.

Huba was silent for a moment and said, "Director, I actually know him, but we haven't been in touch much in recent years. I will give it a try."

"I know their demands. Those greedy guys must pay the price. However, the ownership of the coal mines is too complicated. No problem can be solved by violence. I hope he can understand." said Rawdon.

Violence is acceptable, but not all. If you want to get what you want, you must make some compromises with the government, such as getting some rights and interests in the coal mines.

After all, this coal mine is extremely profitable, and it is impossible for Ruiha and his men to occupy it completely.

So it depends on how the negotiation is done here.

Of course, before that, the current beneficiaries such as Raj's family and related forces must be eliminated first.

"I understand." Huba said.

"Before that, I want to meet the families of the three girls who were victimized," said Roden. "I want to listen to their demands on behalf of the police station, and also to help Weiss Scindia talk to them about forgiveness in private. If possible, I will discuss with Weiss's family and ask them to give 100,000 rupees in compensation to the families of each victim."

"100,000 rupees?" Huba's eyes widened.

This amount of compensation is definitely a sky-high price in Harage Township.

In his opinion, as long as the Weiss family is willing to pay compensation, even if it is only a few thousand rupees or at most ten thousand rupees, the families will definitely forgive them.

"Just talk to them like this, and I will fight for the money for them," said Roton.

"Okay, Chief, I'll go right away." Huba couldn't sit still any longer. "If there's no problem, I'll ask them to come to the police station tomorrow."

This is certainly good news for the victims' families, whose daughters are already dead and nothing can bring them back to life.

So it would be best if there was some compensation.

You know, in the past, when these Dalits were beaten to death by the upper castes, their deaths were almost in vain. Not to mention compensation, the perpetrators would not be punished at all.

Now that Rotun has secured such compensation for the victim's family, even if it is discounted later and only remains at a few tens of thousands of rupees, Huba will respect Rotun even more.

No director can do this. After all, Huba is also a Dalit and feels deeply about this.

"No, I'll go there myself," said Rawdon.

"Director, the place they live in is too bad~~"

"Don't think I'm some noble person. A few months ago, I was still in the slums of Mumbai. I've seen everything." Luoton laughed, "In fact, I also want to see with my own eyes their current living environment."

"Yes, Chief, I'll arrange it now."

"Okay, I'll wait for your news." Rotten said with a smile.

Huba came out of the office and saw Lisa coming towards him.

"Miss Scindia."

"Director Munda, is Director Mahesh here?" Lisa asked.

"Yes, please." Huba said with a smile.

Now everyone knows that Rawdon and Lisa have been friends for a long time, and their relationship is extraordinary.

For example, today Lisa took Roton’s car to Diwa Township.

If they weren't close, would this be possible? Can anyone ride in the director's car?

So now that Lisa comes to the police station, everyone's attitude towards her is different.

"Why are you here? If you have anything, you can call me." Roden couldn't help but smile when he saw Lisa coming in.

"Are you not welcome?" Lisa snorted.

"Of course you are welcome. It is always a pleasure to see a beautiful woman." Roden said, "I still have some materials to look at. Please sit down first."

Lisa knew that Rawdon was very busy, so she didn't say anything more. She found a chair and sat down. At this time, a police officer immediately brought her a cup of tea.

When he went out later, he was considerate enough to close the door.

Lisa's face turned slightly red, and there were two people again.

She stole a glance at Rotten and saw that his attention was all on the material. She couldn't help but curse herself for overthinking.

"Ah?" Lisa was suddenly startled. Suddenly, there were screams outside. "What happened?"

"It's okay, don't worry about it." Luo Dun smiled, "We are interrogating the prisoner."

Although the guard room was some distance away, the noise was quite loud this time. It was obvious that Gosa was serious. The prisoners were screaming, and the whole police station could hear it.

Ever since Gosa went over to interrogate him, the sound had been coming one after another without stopping.

"Wesita?" Lisa's heart tightened and her face was full of worry.

"He's fine." Rawdon said, "I'm here, what do you have to worry about?"

Lisa thought about it and realized that she was worrying for no reason. It was mainly because she was too anxious and worried.
