Chapter 468 Operation

On May 3, 2017, in the middle of the night, the Mumbai police organized hundreds of elite troops to raid a private residence in the suburbs.

The residence covers a large area and is the property of a well-known wealthy local.

When the Mumbai police broke into the room, they saw various telephones, computers and other equipment inside, and there were at least nearly a hundred people.

These people were all busy making phone calls.

The main reason is the difference in time zones. It is night in India and day in the United States.

Many times, these guys may work in several shifts and all night long.

This is a no-cost business, and the money earned is in US dollars, which is so tempting.

As the police rushed in, the scene became chaotic.

This is the main office for fraud cases.

However, the boss is not here, but lives in a villa not far from here.

The Mumbai police also divided their forces into two groups.

Of course, Luoton found out the news.

After he returned from New Delhi, he combined the clues provided by the FBI and identified the suspect after several days of investigation.

He then took personal charge of arranging the arrest.

Of course, being personally responsible for the arrangements does not mean that Roton will take part in the battle.

The kind of personal arrest and close combat arrest must be handed over to the people below.

Although he has strong fighting skills, as the Mumbai Police Commissioner, he does not need to continue charging into battle.

He arrived at the scene, but just sat in the car and gave the orders remotely.

"Chief, the three fraud ringleaders have all been arrested." Soon, one of his men came quickly to report.

"Very good, interrogate him immediately..." said Rotten with a smile.

Now that these main leaders have been arrested, the case is solved.

Then you will get your own credit.

According to Rajnath, these three people will eventually be handed over to the United States.

It’s not that India has no principles and is not willing to hand over its citizens.

Instead, these three people have already become citizens of the United States and have immigrated.

Therefore, it is reasonable for the United States to extradite people back for trial, which is to examine the criminals in its own country.

India doesn't want to offend the United States too much, so it just accepts this kind of thing.

After all, India is in the wrong when it comes to telecom fraud.

It is possible to use this kind of thing to calm down the American country.

By then, the government will be able to report through the news that it has cooperated with the United States to combat crime, which will definitely be a highlight of the People’s Party’s governance.

In particular, the US government will most likely express gratitude to the Indian government for this move. Even if it is just verbal gratitude, it will be enough for the BJP to make a big fuss about these words.

It can be regarded as a great achievement of their administration.

The leader and his employees were all quickly arrested, and none of them escaped.

In fact, as long as the three bosses are there, the other so-called employees are all recruited locally in India, and it doesn’t matter how many of these people there are.

The United States doesn't care whether these employees are caught or not.

However, the Indian government still needs this case for publicity and to create momentum.

This is to let the United States know that the Indian government is very dedicated to this case.

The number of people arrested must not be too small. If it is too small, the case will not seem that big.

More than a hundred people, that’s about it.

If it is not enough, they can get some people to make up the number, or even just lie about the number of people. Who will verify it? And the amount of money this group of people defrauded, although it has not been fully interrogated, but judging from some cash and accounts seized at the scene, it is nearly one billion US dollars and more than one billion rupees. This amount is already huge, enough to make the Indian news media excited for a while.

"Chief, I've done it." After confirming that all the people he wanted to arrest had been captured, Roton called Shiva, the Mabon Police Headquarters.

"Okay, Rodan, I'll take action right away, haha~~" Shiva laughed.

The main purpose of this operation is to arrest the fraud gang named by the FBI. However, in order to show its determination to crack down on telecom fraud, the Indian government can ask Roton to take down a few more fraud gangs.

There was no need for Rodon to take all the credit for himself, so he contacted Shiva.

These cyber fraud criminal groups are located all over India.

However, there are more economically developed states like Mabang.

The main reason is that the economy here is developed, so it is easier for them to launder the money after they succeed in committing fraud.

Especially since Mumbai is the economic center of India, the amount of money involved here every day is too huge, and various financial channels are well-developed and very secretive.

With the help of Rawdon and Shiva, several fraud gangs around Mumbai were finally selected.

Since Roton's mission is the most important, everything should focus on Roton.

In other words, Shiva can only launch the attack after Rodon's action is successful.

Otherwise, if Shiva launches an attack ahead of time or at the same time, the news might leak out, making it difficult for Rodon to capture the enemy.

Both Rodon and Shiva were very clear about these issues of priority.

After Shiva received the call from Rotun, he immediately gave orders to his subordinates.

He had already prepared the people and arranged his most capable subordinate, Pirando, to be in charge personally. The main police force was naturally the elite of the Mumbai police.

The quality of police officers in other places varies greatly. In comparison, the Mumbai police force is definitely the best.

Especially after Rodon took over the Mumbai Police Department, the mental outlook of these police officers has changed a lot.

This time Shiva also wanted to give credit to Pirando.

Although Pirando is the Inspector General, he, as the director, can also assign him some special tasks.

Roton also supports these.

After all, they are our own.

Of course, if there is merit, one should consider the people on one’s side first.

Except for Roton's side, the three teams sent by Shiva all completed their tasks successfully.

In fact, these are not difficult tasks at all for the police.

Because the police basically know about these so-called online fraud groups.

Many of these guys used the name of the company as a cover, but how could they hide it from the local police? Because the government turned a blind eye to these things, and they also gave a lot of benefits to the local police and government departments, so no one could see these illegal acts.

Who can resist money? These people are the sponsors.

There are definitely more than just four fraud groups in Mabang, and the number is quite large. Those who are chosen can only be said to be unlucky.

The news was reported early the next morning.

In particular, the content of the Truth News is the most detailed and timely.

For example, in the case of Roton's operation, reporters and photographers from Truth News had already followed and participated in the filming of the entire process.

This kind of good thing must be given to our own people, so that the benefits will not flow to outsiders.

In fact, the public has little interest in the police arresting and cracking down on fraud criminal groups.

They are more interested in seeing news about certain officials or politicians being arrested.

I don't think these scams have anything to do with them.

However, this matter involves the United States, so the nature is different.

In addition, the news reports received various supports from the Indian government, so these news reports suddenly became overwhelming.

It gives people a feeling that India has cracked down on all these online fraud gangs.

In fact, it is for the United States to see.

However, this effect is definitely there.

At least during this period of time and the next period of time, these online fraud phenomena will definitely be less or temporarily stopped.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This is also the result that the Indian government wants.

Just calm down and let this matter pass. What happens in the future will be another matter.

Office of the Union Finance Minister, New Delhi.

Law Enforcement Bureau Director Bowede knocked on the door hurriedly.

"Sir, the CBI is involved in a telecommunications fraud case. We must take this matter seriously," Bowede shouted as he came in.

"Yes, they are involved." Allen said, "It's almost over. Didn't I say that before? This matter is not easy for you law enforcement bureau to follow up."

Allen understood Bowede's anxiety.

These days, the Enforcement Agency has been targeting the Central Bureau of Investigation.

For every case handled by the Central Bureau of Investigation, their Enforcement Bureau can definitely handle one or even several cases as well.

No, the Enforcement Bureau can create some false cases and wrongful convictions on its own. How many people will care? Therefore, the Enforcement Bureau cannot tolerate the Central Bureau of Investigation being the only one to take the spotlight.

Now, Bowede and his men are becoming more and more confident, and they are determined to surpass the Central Bureau of Investigation in every aspect.

Now that a telecom fraud case has suddenly occurred and their law enforcement agency is unable to intervene, Bovede is very depressed. If it was just the Mumbai police in Rawdon, it would be fine, but the problem is that the Central Bureau of Investigation also benefited.

So after getting the news, he rushed over in a hurry.

"I thought so before, but now I have a good idea," said Bowede.

"You still want to intervene?" Allen frowned. "The person the FBI wants has been arrested by Lawton and his team. How can you still intervene? I think you should stop bothering with this matter. The tax payment of companies in various states is enough to keep you busy."

The previous tax collection plan was proposed by Bowede, and his law enforcement agency has recently focused its main attention on this.

After the law enforcement agency intervened and arrested a number of uncooperative businessmen, many people felt the cold and murderous intent of the law enforcement agency this time, so they could only look for connections in various states.

The governments of those states have basically been in contact and communicating with the Ministry of Finance recently.

This made Minister Allen feel very emotional.

You know, when he went to various states to collect taxes before, those guys basically ignored him.

The situation is different now. Those guys are the ones who come to him on their own initiative.

In other words, the initiative is now in his hands.

It would be good if there is cooperation from violent law enforcement agencies.

Allen really regretted that he used the Enforcement Bureau too late. If he had used it earlier, those guys would probably have surrendered long ago.

At least he won't give me the cold shoulder like before.

For Allen, the tax issue is still something he attaches great importance to, after all, fiscal revenue needs to be increased.

Judging from the current progress, those states may not necessarily hand over all the taxes to us, but they will at least pay some.

That's a good start.

So Allen still wants Powell to continue to work on this matter.

As for the telecom fraud case, even if it was related to the United States, what did it have to do with him? "Sir, there is no conflict." Bo Wade said with a smile, "The tax case can continue, and the telecom fraud case can proceed at the same time. Sir, as far as I know, the Rawdon and Mabon police only busted four fraud groups, and the funds they confiscated totaled more than 2 billion US dollars."

"More than 2 billion, that's a lot." Allen replied without thinking, but he was stunned as soon as he said this. "What did you say, more than 2 billion?"

"It's dollars, sir," added Powell.

"Damn it, didn't the report say that a total of $500 million plus a few hundred million rupees were found?" Allen cursed.

He must have believed the amounts reported.

Needless to say, the party handling the transaction must have concealed the actual amount.

Based on what Allen knew about these things, the Mabon police and local government probably concealed at least half of the amount.

In other words, in Allen's mind, the Mabon police should have gotten about 1 billion US dollars this time.

I didn't expect that the number that Bowede said was double the number in my mind.

And this is just Bowede's guess. The exact amount may be even higher.

"The Mabang police and the government there are both very happy this time," said Bowede. "Sir, the government is in financial difficulty, so I think we can use this as an excuse to target some more fraud groups. If the Mabang police and the Central Bureau of Investigation can do it, there is no reason why our Enforcement Bureau cannot do it. There are great benefits in this, both for the Ministry of Finance and for you, sir."

Allen's heart was pounding.

In fact, when the law enforcement bureau was collecting taxes before, he was able to make a lot of benefits.

Although it is nominally for the country's finances, who would be willing to bother with these things if there is no personal benefit? And when it comes to taking advantage of these taxes or companies, one has to be more careful.

After all, these guys have a complicated network of relationships, so it's not easy to push them too hard.

When targeting those people who commit crimes, their money comes from illegal sources to begin with, so the exact amount of money they have is basically determined by the personnel handling the case.

There are far fewer concerns.

If you find 100 rupees, there is no problem in reporting 1 rupee.

As long as everything is in place, some people would even want to swallow up this 1 rupee.

With his current status, it would be no problem for him to take care of anything.

The most important thing is that these fraud groups have defrauded money from developed countries such as the United States, which is foreign currencies such as the US dollar.

The US dollar smells so good.

Many people in India want to exchange rupees into US dollars, but this exchange can only be done through various black markets and illegal money laundering to transfer the money abroad.

But the transaction fees are too high and there are risks involved.

And getting US dollars directly from these guys, is there anything better than this?

"I think you know what's going on with these guys. The government doesn't actually want to do anything to them. After all, they earn a lot of foreign exchange for the government every year." Allen took a deep breath.

"Of course, I didn't say we have to catch them all. And with so many people engaged in this industry, it's impossible to completely eradicate them." Bowede smiled, "We can also learn from Mabang and pick out some guys. There are so many gangs engaged in this industry. If we pick one or two in each state, it won't be a big problem, right?"

Allen's eyes lit up. This wasn't a big problem.
