Reborn as a Police Officer in India

Chapter 246 Kill the Director and Replace Him

If we talk about the police equipment configuration mentioned above, the public may not be familiar with it.

Well, everyone has heard about the construction of the monitoring system.

Some time ago, Mumbai Police Commissioner Shiva Nandan kept talking about this project. Every time he was interviewed by reporters, he would mention it and said that he had been negotiating with the state Ministry of Home Affairs, hoping that the government would support the advancement of this project.

But the state Ministry of Home Affairs is unwilling to provide any funds for this project.

The state home department has been dragging its feet on the grounds that funds are tight and the project requires huge capital investment.

Therefore, the state Ministry of Home Affairs was suddenly pushed to the forefront.

With Roton's example, everyone can see the benefits of the monitoring system.

It was precisely because of the inaction of the state Ministry of Home Affairs that the serial bombings occurred and caused huge casualties.

Next, some well-informed media got the news from somewhere, and some enthusiastic insiders magically appeared and provided data. It was said that the state Ministry of Home Affairs had recently spent hundreds of millions of rupees to replace a batch of office supplies, such as tables, chairs, pens, paper, etc.

These are nothing. When something is old, it is normal to replace it with a new one.

No matter how hard or tiring it is, it cannot be too hard. The officials are tired after all.

But the problem is that these items are extremely expensive. The same office pen on the market may cost tens of rupees, but the purchase price of the state government is hundreds of rupees.

In short, the prices of various things are several times lower than the market price, while the prices of more things are increased by ten or twenty times.

It's so blatant.

This is infuriating.

Didn’t you say you have no money?

There is no money to allocate to the police to build a surveillance system.

Why are you so willing to spend money on these insignificant things?
It seems that the state Ministry of Home Affairs is not short of money at all, but is just unwilling to allocate the money.

In this comparison, the state home department has an additional responsibility.

When people see this news, their first thought is that all the money was embezzled by those bastards in the state Ministry of Interior, so there is no money to allocate to the police.

Therefore, the occurrence of the terrorist attack and the resulting heavy casualties cannot really be blamed on the police. What fault could the police have done?

Without money and equipment, anyone would be at a loss.

Aris's good mood did not last long.

He did not expect that the public opinion against the state Ministry of Home Affairs would be so fierce.

This is not a good thing. You don't need to look to know that this is aimed at Harari.

No matter what, Harari, the state interior minister, will be the first to bear the brunt.

If anything happens to Harari, he will be embarrassed.

Especially since his son's problem has not been resolved yet.

If Harari pulls it, it will be very difficult to solve it by oneself.

He couldn't even completely solve the problem of his own son. The impact of the Guludi incident was still too great.

Now everyone's attention is attracted by the terrorist attacks, and they are not so concerned about Guludi's affairs.

But this doesn't mean that everyone has forgotten.

Once the terrorist attack here is resolved, the matter of Guludi will definitely be brought up again.

He was very anxious, and it was very important to him whether Harari could resolve this crisis.

But before he could receive good news from Harari, he encountered a huge crisis.

I don’t know which bastard spread the rumor that there was indeed a huge conspiracy behind Mali Trivedi’s car accident, and that someone wanted to murder Mali.

The director died, and someone wanted to replace him.

The news quickly spread among some newspapers, and then many newspapers began to reprint it.

Anyone want to replace Mali?
Isn't this a very obvious hint?
Isn't it referring to him?

Because he was the deputy director at that time and now he is the director, which is completely consistent.

When will I kill Mali?
And I have no reason at all.

It was clear that Mali was about to be promoted at that time, and those well-informed people within the police force knew it.

Even if he did nothing, as long as he waited patiently, after three to five months, when Mali left, he would be able to take over the position of director smoothly.

At this time, if you take the risk of making such a big noise, wouldn't you be asking for trouble?

So the top government officials did not believe this rumor.

But they don't believe it, but the people do.

Even though some people think this matter is a bit strange, they are still willing to believe that there is an inside story, which fits their speculation that a district director was involved in a car accident.

How can such a car accident be just a simple car accident?
It is normal to have all kinds of conspiracies from the inside.

Since this news broke, there are obviously follow-ups.

Soon, someone published some stories about the online shoppers in the newspaper.

For example, the online shopping addicts have actually colluded with Fox and others for a long time and have done many illegal things.

So, everyone immediately thought of the murder of Gollum.

The police investigation concluded that the act was carried out by members of the "Cao Shou Gang" (a shopping gang), and confirmed that this incident had nothing to do with Fox and his team.

If people had not been clear about the relationship between online shopping addicts and Fox before, they might have been able to accept it.

Maybe it really doesn't matter.

But the relationship between the two that has been revealed now is simply too close.

Fox and others once cooperated with the online shopping addicts to steal some stolen goods seized by the police, especially nearly one ton of giant macaques, out of the warehouse.

The stolen goods are sold through online shoppers.

There are many people involved in this, such as the Inspector General of Police of the North Central District, Shishji Tomar.

The case of Xishiji caused quite a stir at the time.

The big one was eaten by a mouse. This is the golden sentence said by Xishiji.

In the end, it was discovered that all these were eaten by Xishiji, which made people want to beat Xishiji's skin.

Before, everyone thought that this was really done by Xishiji. As an inspector general, his status and position were high enough.

It is normal to collude with online shoppers.

There are many news reports about the police colluding with local gangs in various ways, so it is not surprising.

With Xishiji as the Inspector General and the online shopping addicts, a lot of things can be done.

I didn’t expect that there would be such revelations now. It seems that Xishiji, who is already the big boss behind the scenes in everyone’s mind, is still just a scapegoat.

Now everyone knows who is really behind this, aren't they Fox, Lello and others?
They relied on their father's power to do all kinds of evil things.

So at this time, they no longer believed the police at all about the truth of the Guludi case, especially since the conclusion given by the police was obviously a lie in their eyes.

The people became even more angry. In their opinion, the police and related forces were making fun of them.

They have become more radical, and if we fail to give them a satisfactory answer, the consequences will be serious.

The public had already concluded that Fox and his gang had ordered the "Shopping Gang" members to kill Guludi and silence him. The police's previous conclusion, clearly influenced by the forces behind Fox, had used the "Shopping Gang" members as scapegoats.

Everyone was already unhappy about this matter, and now with these revelations, they feel like they have evidence.

Now they are asking the police to investigate Foss and others. If they don't, this matter will not be over.

The son hired someone to kill someone to silence him and steal other people's wealth.

I hired someone to kill my boss in order to seize his position.

Doesn’t this all fit in?

As expected of father and son, their working styles are so similar.

There may be logical problems in these things, but the public is still very consistent in their attitude towards this matter.

This was enough for them to conclude that Fox and Aris were guilty.

If it was said that it was just Aris who asked the online shopping addicts to kill Mali, some senior officials in the government would definitely not believe it.

But now, with Fox's close relationship with online shoppers, many high-ranking officials in the government have also become shaken.

In their opinion, it is possible that Aris could use the power of the gang to get rid of his boss and then take over as soon as possible.

They are not unaware of the relationship between Aris and Harari.

They also know that Harari wants to reach out to the police so that he can have greater influence on them.

As for the government, they certainly agree with Harari's approach.

But that doesn't mean they agree with Aris using murdering his boss to get to the top.

If this precedent is set, the people below will follow suit, and maybe they will kill one of them and try to replace him.

It can be said that this matter concerns their safety and interests and must be taken seriously.

Aris couldn't bear the pressure anymore, so he ran to Harari's residence.

"Did you do it?" Harari asked with a grim face.

"Mr. Minister, how could I be so stupid as to do such a thing?" Aris was so upset that he wanted to cry.

Are you a fool?

This kind of desperate thing is usually the last resort when there is no other choice.

I haven't reached that point at all, what's the point?

Harari thought so too, but the recent public opinion about Aris was so explosive that even his thoughts were affected.

He was able to react and realize that Aris couldn't have done it.

But what about the people?

They are not as rational as I am.

Besides, many people don’t have any thoughts of their own, they just join in the fun and stir up trouble.

"What should I do?" Aris asked anxiously.

If this matter is not handled properly, the consequences will be serious.

He might even lose his position as director.

He doesn't want to lose these.

Harari is very upset because too many things have gone wrong recently.

He himself is caught in the whirlpool of public opinion.

There are calls for him to resign one after another.

Fortunately, the Chief Minister has not yet expressed his stance and still supports me.

After all, he did this in order to suppress the power of the police and allow the government to have greater influence over the police.

But who could have imagined the serial bombings?
And that damn surveillance system.

This was definitely beyond everyone's expectations, and he naturally would not have thought of it.

It has only been a few years since the 08 terrorist attacks, so how come another terrorist attack of such a large scale happened?

Regardless of whether it was due to carelessness, Harari felt that he was very unlucky.

If this hadn't happened, the police would never have shown their teeth to us.

Now the police have almost absolved themselves of any responsibility and put all the blame on themselves. This is really outrageous.

As for the Ministry of the Interior's high-priced purchases, he certainly knew about it.

This has been done before, not just him, but also his predecessors and predecessors. Who doesn't want to make money from the government?
Government procurement is the best opportunity to make money and get kickbacks.

As the minister, he naturally reaps the lion's share of the benefits.

In the past, this would have been nothing.

It's just the wrong timing. I'm just unlucky to have encountered something like this. Now, any small matter will be carefully scrutinized by the media and the public with a magnifying glass.

Small things will become big things.

"Let your son bear the guilt." Harari said after thinking for a while.

"Ah?" Aris's cheeks trembled. "How can this be? Mali's car accident has nothing to do with me."

I didn't do such a thing at all, so why should I ask my son to confess?

"What's the point of telling me?" Harari glanced at him and said calmly, "I believe you, but the people outside don't. Given the current situation, no matter how you explain, it won't convince them or satisfy them. You can only sacrifice your own family for the sake of justice. This may ease their anger and suppress this matter. Otherwise, you'll have no need to be a police officer. You can make your own choice. Besides, I didn't ask your son to directly admit to hiring a killer. You can just say you had no knowledge of it. It was your son who took the initiative to hire someone to scare Mali. Who knew that the online shopping addict missed the target and accidentally caused a serious car accident..."

Aris felt a chill in his heart.

Even so, it was his own son who was sacrificed in the end.

This is his own son, not Harari's son, so he doesn't feel sorry for him.

Ares really wanted to say, why not let your son take the blame?
But he certainly couldn't say that, because he still had to rely on Harari.

Aris's heart was pounding.

He understood that Harari's method was indeed a reliable method at present.

This matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise those people will continue to make trouble, and the impact will definitely become bigger and bigger, and I will not be able to hold on to my position as director.

If this matter had been resolved earlier, he might have been able to keep his identity as a police officer.

That is, all this was done by his son, he was unaware of it and put the blame on his son.

As for the position of director, there is basically no possibility for me to hold it again.

I must give up this position.

However, as long as he can keep his current police rank, I believe he will still have a chance to regain a powerful position after Harari passes this test.

If this matter cannot be resolved as soon as possible, it will not be as simple as removing the position of a director, and the police rank will probably be demoted.

As for if his son is really arrested, even if he goes to jail, as long as he is safe, there are plenty of ways to get him out.

At most he would just have to stay in jail for a while. With his connections, he wouldn't encounter any problems in jail and might even live a good life. It was no big deal.

The most important thing now is to calm the people's emotions. As long as their emotions are stable, this matter will soon be forgotten.
