Chapter 74 Police Commissioner
Mali brought people over quickly, and the work on Liso's side was done.
As expected, Lisuo resisted arrest and had a gunfight with the police. His firepower was very strong, and even though the police were prepared, there were still heavy casualties. More than a dozen police officers died alone. But in the end, he was captured alive.
At Liso's villa, Mali did not find much wealth, which was only a small part compared to what Liso had plundered over the years.
So when Mali heard the report from Rotun, he was overjoyed and came here in person immediately.
When he saw the wealth here, he felt a little eye-opening.
After all these years of investigating cases, this is the first time I’ve seen so much cash piled up like a mountain.
He secretly sighed in his heart, this is Mumbai after all, there are so many rich people.
He had robbed some rich people in other places before, but in terms of their level of extravagance, they were far inferior to Li Suo.
As these gangs grow bigger, they can make money quickly, especially those like Liso, who can monopolize the drug supply in a region and make a steady stream of wealth.
Mali was very satisfied with the operation and it was a huge credit.
Not to mention the arrest of Liso himself and those related politicians, the amount of drugs alone is equivalent to the amount seized in Mumbai in the past year. It is too huge.
This is a great achievement.
"Roton, well done." Mali patted Roton on the shoulder and laughed.
He knew that Luo Dun and the others must have gained some benefits. Who wouldn't have taken what they had come first? However, he didn't pursue these matters. Everyone did the same thing.
Even if he would take a part from here, he is the highest person in charge of this operation, so of course he will benefit the most.
A large part of the wealth here will be used for various arrangements. Only when everyone benefits will the matter be settled.
Of course, he will deal with this matter later. How to distribute it will be a favor to those people. This will be very helpful for him to gain a foothold in Mumbai in the future.
It will also enable him to gain more support from others during the corresponding law enforcement process, thus reflecting his power as the district police chief.
In the next few days, the Mumbai police were very busy, and many politicians, officials, etc. were arrested one after another.
Here I would like to talk about the special features of the Mumbai Police that distinguish it from most local police forces.
That is the police commissioner system established by India in several important cities in the country.
Under normal circumstances, when the police want to arrest a suspect, they must apply for an arrest warrant from a local judge.
Only after a judge issues an arrest warrant can the police formally arrest a suspect. Otherwise, even if they catch the suspect, they will have to release him after a certain period of time.
The police commissioner system gives the police some of the powers of a judge, allowing them to arrest criminals directly without an arrest warrant signed by a judge.
This allows for the effective handling of complex cases. This system of police commissioners generally exists in a few important large cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata.
Police Commissioners will have different corresponding levels according to their police ranks. The lowest rank of Police Commissioner is Fourth-level Superintendent. Of course, it must be IPS. It is impossible for local police to have Fourth-level Superintendent.
The highest-ranking police commissioners are generally the Special Commissioner of Police and the Additional Commissioner of Police. In other words, the Commissioner of Mumbai Police is the highest-ranking police commissioner and has very great power.
It is precisely because the Mumbai Police Commissioner has such power that he can become the second-in-command of the Maharashtra police system.
The chief of the Mali district police station naturally has the authority to exercise the powers of the police commissioner and can use police force to immediately arrest Liso and some related politicians and officials without going through a judge.
If it were somewhere else, one would have to go to a judge to get an arrest warrant. Not only would the information be easily leaked in the process, but this extra step alone would take a lot of time.
Don't even mention the efficiency of the relevant departments in India, especially the judicial system, which is even more slow. A case can take more than ten or twenty years to get any result.
It is also because of this that some people who have been wrongly accused or have actually committed crimes will voluntarily confess their guilt. This is not necessarily the result of torture by the police, but because these people are really willing to confess. The reason is that the efficiency of the court is really too low.
For example, a person who breaks the law may be sentenced to three years, but the time he is detained awaiting sentencing is much longer than three years. Many are detained for five or six years without a trial.
If you really wait for the sentencing, the time spent waiting in detention will not be counted as part of the sentence, so isn't it equivalent to being detained for more than ten years?
It would be wiser to plead guilty at the outset, regardless of whether you are guilty or not, and you can be released in three years.
The police made a lot of noise, and the media certainly noticed it.
However, when these media wanted to dig up the news, All India Television had already begun reporting on the police operation in great detail, except for the content that the police requested to remain confidential temporarily.
Therefore, Fia naturally made a contribution. It can be said that it was the exclusive news of their all-Indian TV station, and the content was extremely explosive.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The Bloody Hand Gang, which was notorious and rampant for so many years, was finally defeated. The people gave great praise to the police, and the image of the police was improved to a certain extent.
Of course, it was the All India Television that set the tone for this action at the first opportunity. As the general trend has prevailed, some interested parties or backers related to the Bloody Hand Gang dare not interfere with the news media.
At this time, they could only look for connections everywhere and try to negotiate with the police, hoping to control the impact of this incident within a certain range.
A gang leader like Lisuo must have been handed over, but how many people are involved behind this person? Some can go in, some need to be cleared, that is a game among multiple parties.
Rotten personally interrogated Gert Singh. After this guy was invited back to the Spanda Police Station, he was originally just assisting in the investigation. However, with the fall of Liso, a lot of evidence of his crimes came one after another, so he was actually detained.
Gert has been relieved of all duties in the police department and is now a prisoner.
"Captain Mahesh, what else do you want? I have said everything I need to say." Gert looked dejected. It was not because of how Rotten tortured him, but because he himself had suffered a huge blow. His energy and spirit were completely gone, and even his hair had turned a lot whiter.
Gert knew very well that Rotten was not to be blamed for this matter, as Rotten was just an executor. However, when he saw Rotten, he still felt an inexplicable anger in his heart.
What was going on? Originally, this Luo Dun was just an ordinary second-level police officer, inconspicuous.
Since when, it seems like just a few months ago, this guy has been currying favor with Yada, and then experienced several good lucks later, and has been promoted step by step.
Rodon was lucky, but he was the complete opposite. He had always been unlucky until now he had nothing and went from being a law enforcer to a prisoner.
"Really? I think you still have a lot to say." Luo Dun said lightly, "For example, your backers, your leaders in the district police station, did they ask you to do something that was against the law?"
Rotten sneered in his heart. This guy Gert still held on to a glimmer of hope. He did not reveal the evidence of Inspector General Xishiji's crime. He probably wanted to wait for Xishiji to save him.
