Chapter 461 The Director of the Law Enforcement Bureau Visits
"This is an order issued personally by Director Mahesh. The source of funds must be strictly investigated. All those that come from illegal sources must be investigated. I'm sure many of you know that guy. How can a low-level gangster like him have so much money? I suspect it is the black money of their gang, and they want to launder it in this way. As long as your money is legitimate, the police will never accuse you wrongly." Deputy Inspector Harry saw that his words just now seemed to have no effect and did not dispel the people's doubts, so he continued.
Hearing what Deputy Inspector Harry said, many people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
That guy is a gang member, and many people know that.
After all, the people who come to this bank branch to exchange money are basically from nearby, and there are quite a few acquaintances among them.
Therefore, it is very likely that this guy is trying to help exchange and launder the gang’s money. After all, there are problems with the money of these gangs.
In addition, Deputy Inspector Harry mentioned Rawdon, so everyone still trusts Rawdon.
Rodon is now the Commissioner of Mumbai Police. Under his jurisdiction, everyone feels that they can trust these police officers.
As a result, the exchange work here quickly returned to normal.
Such arrests were not isolated, but were also carried out simultaneously in many other bank branches in Mumbai.
These people wanted to exchange rupees ranging from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands, but of course no one had more than 250,000 rupees.
The problem is that it is obviously impossible for these people to have such a large amount of money.
The police quickly arrested a number of people.
The police then immediately began interrogating these people.
These people confessed that someone had given them the task and that they would receive a reward as long as they exchanged the money.
As for who the money belongs to, they don't know either.
These people simply told the police who was behind it.
The police immediately took action and started arresting the people behind these people.
These relationships are layered. By arresting a group, we can get more clues, and then follow the clues to arrest the people behind them.
Until the real owner of the money is identified.
"Director, this money belongs to Shapur Mistry." The office director reported the evidence summarized below to Roden.
The director takes this case very seriously.
What the director values, of course he, as his subordinate, must also value.
In fact, there is no need to check, the office director also knows that it must be an official or a wealthy person who hired someone to go to the bank to exchange large-denomination banknotes.
The police have actually known about this kind of thing for a long time.
It’s just that there are too many people involved and it’s difficult for the police to take action.
Of course, the main reason is that the director did not give the order to arrest anyone.
But this time, the director took action.
The director thought that maybe the chief was going to arrest a group of people. It was not until he got the evidence from the police station that he suddenly realized what was going on.
It turned out to be Shapur.
He is Cyrus's brother.
How could he not know about the conflict between the director and Cyrus? Now that Cyrus has been removed as the chairman of the Tata Group, the director wants revenge.
Otherwise, the director would not have picked Shapur specifically, right? After all, there are many wealthy people who do this kind of thing. How could he have caught Shapur hiring people to exchange the money so accurately? It was such a coincidence.
"Is the evidence conclusive?" Rawdon asked with a faint smile.
"Director, the evidence is conclusive," the director immediately confirmed.
"Please notify Fares and ask him to take people to search Shapur's house. I think he should have a large amount of funds of unknown origin hidden in his house." said Roton.
"Yes, Chief," the director responded.
"Wait, you should also notify the directors of other districts. The practice of wealthy people or officials in their jurisdiction hiring people to exchange coins must be cracked down on." Roton said again.
"Director, this~~" the director hesitated for a moment and said, "Will this have a wide impact? I'm afraid it will affect the social stability of Mumbai."
He knew that Rawdon was decisive and not afraid of the powerful.
After all, Roton had taken down quite a few big guys before.
But if this is really done this time, almost all the rich and powerful people in Mumbai will be affected. If this matter becomes a big deal, it may not be a good thing for the director.
"Just catch a few typical cases. And spread the word that I will not allow this kind of illegal money laundering in Mumbai, and we will catch them if we find any." Roton said with a smile.
"I see." The director smiled, "That's no problem."
The chief is giving a lot of discretion to the district police chiefs.
In other words, these district police chiefs can use any opportunity to get rid of anyone they dislike.
For Roton, these are considered as some benefits for the people below.
After all, if he only captured Shapur this time, he would inevitably be accused of taking revenge on Cyrus.
How could an honest policeman like Rawdon do such a petty trick?
Therefore, we must treat them all equally, and the behavior of hiring people to exchange currencies by other powerful people must also be cracked down upon.
However, such a blow is just a warning to others.
The other powerful people should know what to do after they get the news.
My meaning is very clear, that is, don't do such a thing in Mumbai.
As for outside of Mumbai and outside of their jurisdiction, that is no longer something they can control.
I still gave them a way to survive.
For those powerful people, hiring someone to exchange the money at another place is just a little troublesome.
…
A large number of police officers swarmed into Shapur's residence.
This made Shapur confused, but he was still shocked. Could it be that Cyrus's affairs had affected him?
With the ability of the Tata family, it is still possible to get the police to take action.
Everyone knows that Rawdon and Ratan are very close.
But when Fares Nanniwadkar told him the purpose of his visit, Shapur was shocked.
He was investigating the source of his own funds? "Director Naniwadekar, these funds are from the sale of some assets under my name some time ago." Shapur smiled, "These are all legal funds."
"Since it is legal funds, why hire so many people to exchange it at the bank? Can't you just deposit it directly at the bank?" Fares said lightly, "Mr. Mistry, please cooperate. We need to search your residence."
"No." Shapur shouted hurriedly.
"This is a search warrant." A piece of document appeared in Fares' hand and he waved it in front of Shapur.
With Rawdon's current power, both the Police Headquarters and the court in Mumbai will give him face.
Therefore, there is no possibility of any problem in the program.
Luoton would not give anyone any handle in these aspects.
In other words, for this kind of investigation or search, Roton will be able to take care of all the necessary materials and processes.
Otherwise it would be an abuse of police power.
Guys like Shapur are capable, and if we really counterattack them, it will put Roton in a passive position.
Therefore, Roton must eliminate all these hidden dangers and not give his opponent any chance.
Besides, he is a good policeman, so shouldn't he abide by these law enforcement procedures? This is the most honest and good policeman recognized by the public.
Shapur's face darkened. He didn't dare let these people search the house.
Because there is a large amount of cash stored here, most of which has not yet been redeemed.
He originally planned to continue hiring people to exchange the coins over the next few days.
The police were very ruthless during the search. After detaining the people in Shapur's home, the police began the search.
The search quickly revealed large amounts of cash, piled high.
Bundles of thousand-dollar bills piled up in a basement made it hard to look away.
Although Fares had seen the world, this was the first time he had seen so much cash and he was greatly shocked.
I sighed in my heart that the Mistry family is indeed a wealthy family that has been passed down for more than a hundred years. It is indeed unfathomable.
He roughly estimated that it must be at least 10 billion rupees.
Fares believed that there was some truth in what Shapur had just said, for example, most of the money might indeed have been recovered by him through the sale of assets.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
But this does not mean that the money is legal.
It is obvious that Fares received the cash directly, which is a tax evasion involving a huge amount of money.
The news was quickly reported to Roton.
Roton was not surprised by the huge amount of cash hidden in Shapur's home, because he knew that Shapur had made a lot of cash.
The target this time was very clear, and it was aimed at Shapur.
But Shapur hid the cash in his own house. It should have been hidden in several places, right? But later, Fares reported that he was still searching some of Shapur's other properties and found hoarded cash in several of them.
Although the amount is not as much as Shapur's current residence, the amount is also extremely large, with each place worth more than ten billion rupees.
In order to find out how much cash Shapur had hoarded this time, the police got ten money counting machines.
Because there was too much cash, the money counting machines started to smoke. They really smoked. They couldn't withstand the high-intensity work and burned out on the spot.
In the end, a lot of people were transferred to do the counting manually.
After three days, the total amount was finally counted, totaling more than 26 billion rupees.
This was big news and was reported quickly.
That is, Shapur Mistry is suspected of tax evasion, and the amount is huge.
Since Cyrus's case is still very popular, and now his brother is in trouble again, it can be said that the Mistry family has been pushed to the forefront of the news.
Originally, the issue of demonetization was definitely the hottest topic, and other events basically had to take a back seat.
But now, the affairs of the Mistry family are definitely of concern to the people.
With so much money, I don’t know how much of it is tax evaded.
Naturally, people were extremely disgusted by this.
It's not that they don't know that these wealthy people are evading taxes in various ways, but these guys have too many connections, so even if they know, nothing will happen.
So the people were cheering for Rotun, because only Rotun dared to take action against these guys.
The tax bureau quickly intervened.
Later, the Law Enforcement Bureau also found an excuse to squeeze in.
Their excuse was that the Shapur case involved economic crime and their Enforcement Agency also needed to investigate.
After Vides found out, he wanted to get the CBI involved as well.
Whatever the Enforcement Bureau wants to do, the Central Bureau of Investigation will definitely keep an eye on it and will not let them get what they want.
In the end, it was Rotten who persuaded Vides to stop.
Roton said that the Central Bureau of Investigation should not get involved in this matter.
Vides was a little worried that the law enforcement agency would exonerate Shapur, after all, that guy Powede had a good relationship with Cyrus before.
But Luo Dun thinks not.
Because Cyrus has lost power.
The fact that Bowede previously sided with Cyrus caused dissatisfaction among the Ministry of Finance and even the old immortal.
If Bowede still wants to continue helping Cyrus at this time, he would be really crazy.
This kind of follow-up search and seizure is actually very offensive.
Roton originally wanted the tax bureau to do it, after all, Shapur's cash was mainly related to tax evasion.
Of course there is also a small amount of illegal income.
However, with the addition of the Law Enforcement Bureau, Roton changed his attitude.
It was obvious that Bowede was very concerned about these things, and Roton could probably guess what he was thinking.
That's what Bowede wanted to show, to let everyone see that he had drawn a clear line between himself and Cyrus.
Then the story of Shapur is a good starting point.
Because he is Cyrus's brother.
Bowede wants everyone to understand his current attitude. He will never protect Cyrus and his family.
In order to enable the Enforcement Agency to better intervene in the case, Bovede even flew from New Delhi to Mumbai to visit Rawdon in person.
Bo Wade, the director of the Law Enforcement Bureau, is now in a high position of power.
Even though he suffered some setbacks in the matter of Cyrus, no one dared to underestimate his power.
But Wade did not dare to underestimate Rodon.
Mumbai is now Rodon's territory. If Rodon does not let go of this case, it will be very difficult for the law enforcement agency to intervene.
After all, he couldn't treat Rawdon as an ordinary policeman.
Other policemen may be afraid of his power now, but it is hard to say about Rawdon.
Even if the law enforcement agency intervenes, it will probably encounter various obstacles from Roton.
So he came here this time to have a good talk with Roden about the ownership of this case.
What surprised Bowede was that Rotten was so easy to talk to.
When he tactfully asked whether the case could be handed over to the law enforcement agency for follow-up investigation, Rawdon actually agreed.
This case involves tens of billions of dollars. Whoever is in charge of this case will make a lot of money.
With tens of billions of funds, your hands will be covered in oil if you just touch them.
So in Bowede's opinion, it would be very difficult to get Rotten to let go, and he was ready for tough negotiations with Rotten.
"Brother Roton, are you serious?" Bowede asked uncertainly.
The surprise came so suddenly that Bowede felt it was a little unreal.
"Of course, if your law enforcement agency gets involved, it will save me a lot of trouble." Luoton said with a smile, "This is a wealthy man in Mumbai. The network of relationships behind him is not simple. I was a little worried about how to deal with this matter."
Bowede didn't say anything for a long time before he said, "Brother Luoton, I owe you a favor. If you have any questions in the future, just tell me."
"Haha~~Okay, okay~~If you need cooperation from the police, just tell me." Rotten said with a smile.
