Reborn as a Police Officer in India

Chapter 250: The State Interior Minister's Sniper
Harari was in the office listening to his secretary's report, which was not about work, but about his son's affairs.

"That's all, Mr. Minister." After the secretary finished his report, he carefully observed Harari.

He found that Harari's expression was normal and he could not tell whether he was happy or angry.

But he knew very well that the Minister must be extremely angry.

If it were me, that would definitely be the case.

This time, the police didn't give the minister any face at all.

According to the police investigation and prosecution, Lailao's crime is very serious. Under normal circumstances, he would probably be sentenced to more than ten years and would have to pay billions of rupees in compensation.

"Mr. Minister, should we talk to the police?" The secretary asked in a low voice when he saw that Harari had not said anything for a while.

After all, the relationship between the Ministry of the Interior and the police is relatively close, and some things can still be discussed. Is it necessary to be so disrespectful?

"No need," Harari finally said. "Roton's actions clearly have the tacit approval of the police brass. Going to them now won't change the outcome. Isn't that just asking for humiliation?"

"Then?" The secretary didn't know what to say.

After all, Leilao is the minister's son, he can't just do nothing.

"Let's just follow the police's lead on the Llau case for now. If we intervene, the police will find evidence against us, and the media will make a fuss about it, which will be very disadvantageous to me and the Ministry of the Interior," said Harari.

The evidence presented by the police is indeed very conclusive and it is difficult to argue with them.

He actually knew what his son had done, and it was indeed difficult to wash away the blame.

Especially when the police obviously want to target Lailao, it is difficult for us to tamper with the evidence.

All he could do was to ask his lawyer to try his best to mitigate Leilao's guilt in court.

Of course, the final operation will definitely take place in prison.

After a period of time, this kind of thing will gradually fade out of people's sight.

By then, I will have plenty of ways to get Leilao out.

It is totally unnecessary and unwise to confront the police now.

"I heard the position of Chief of the North Central District Police Department is still vacant?" asked Harari.

The secretary was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Harari to suddenly ask this.

"Yes, I heard that this position is reserved for Rawdon," the secretary said. "But judging from the current situation, there really isn't anyone who can compete with Rawdon for this position."

Luo Dun's prestige has been very high recently.

In fact, Rotun's prestige among the people has always been like this, and he is an idol admired by everyone.

Being in charge of the case this time has brought Rawdon's reputation to a new level.

At this time, who can compete with him for the position of district director?

Especially since Luoton is the deputy chief of this district police station, when the chief has problems, the promotion of the deputy chief is a routine operation in most cases.

After all, cases of parachuting in a director are rare.

"What a joke!" Harari sneered. "Roden is just a second-level superintendent. What qualifications does he have to sit on the position of district chief?"

"Mr. Minister, after this case, Rotun will definitely be promoted. This is already an open secret among the police," said the secretary.

There was no doubt in anyone's mind that there would be no problem at all in getting Rotun promoted to a higher rank afterwards.

After Rawdon became a first-class superintendent, it was only natural for him to take over as district police chief.

The top police officials had already paved the way for Roton, so these were not a problem at all.

"That was afterward. He's not even a First Superintendent yet," Harari said coldly. "With a district police chief position vacant, what are the police doing? It's not like there's no First Superintendent. There are plenty of people who could be district chiefs. Are they trying to abuse their power for personal gain or appoint people based on personal connections? Our Ministry of the Interior cannot ignore this."

The secretary was stunned.

Think about it too.

Luoton wants to be promoted to first-class superintendent, but he can only be promoted after this case is over and the higher-ups reward him based on his merits.

The case is not over yet, and Rawdon’s contribution has not been counted yet.

In this case, it is naturally impossible for Rawdon to be promoted to first-class superintendent.

Besides, there are many first-class police superintendents who are idle now and do not hold any positions with real power.

If the Minister brings this matter up, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among these first-class police superintendents.

Previously, the senior police officials had suppressed the voices of these first-level superintendents because Rotun had made great contributions to the police and they could not compete.

But now that the Minister has made this matter clear, it is obvious that he wants to support these first-level police inspectors. I believe there will always be some people who will jump out.

This is an open conspiracy, the purpose of which is to divide the police or sow discord.

Everyone may be able to see the intention of this, but when faced with the position of chief of a district police station, how many people can resist the temptation?

This location is so good. Who would want to miss it if given the chance?

"But sir, even if Rawdon doesn't become the district chief this time, he can definitely be promoted to first-class superintendent based on his merits," said the secretary.

"Did I ever say anything about blocking Rotten's promotion to First Superintendent?" Harari glanced at his secretary and said calmly, "Rotten's meritorious service earned him a promotion, and no one can stop him. But it's not so easy for a First Superintendent to hold a position of power. Perhaps Shiva and the others will find a way to compensate Rotten with an important position later, but he definitely won't be getting the position of Chief of the North Central District Police Station anytime soon."

After hearing this, the secretary finally understood.

It turns out that this is the Minister's intention, which is mainly to snipe Roton's specific position.

For example, there are only a few positions for a district police chief in Mumbai.

Those who can sit in this position usually have background and connections, otherwise they would not be able to get it at all.

Therefore, these people generally cannot be easily replaced.

At the level of Superintendent of Police (ISP), the position of District Police Chief in Maharashtra, Mumbai is definitely the best.

Others may hold leadership positions in the general bureau or special district.

But over there, none of them are the top boss.

How can it be as comfortable as that of a district police chief in a metropolitan city like Mumbai?

As long as Luoton is sniped this time, he will definitely not have the chance to become the district director in the next few years.

"I understand, Mr. Minister. I will contact the media now and hype this matter up first." The secretary said immediately.

"Go."

Harari is very satisfied with his secretary, who is reliable in his work.

I can understand many things at a glance and don’t have to worry too much.

Public opinion will rise first, and then we can put pressure on the police to decide on the district police chief first.

That kid Rotten wants this position, but as long as I'm here, he can't get it.

Although in his opinion, the instigators of the attack on him and his son were senior police officials such as Shiva.

But Rotten played a very important role in it, even a very crucial one.

For example, the monitoring system.

If it weren't for Rawdon raising donations and using these funds to build a surveillance system in the northern central district, there would have been a clear contrast between the terrorist attacks and other districts, which would have put him, the state's interior minister, in a very passive position.

Otherwise, the responsibility for this terrorist attack will definitely fall on the police. What does it have to do with the Ministry of the Interior?
Here, Rotun plays a very important role.

This is also the reason why the top police officers protect Rotun so much and give him various benefits.

For the top police officials, especially Shiva, this was a lifesaver.

Therefore, he was not lenient towards Rotun.

Of course he has to ruin this kid's good deeds.

Harari didn't care who would become the North Central District Police Chief, as long as it wasn't Rodon. Rodon was the candidate originally chosen by the police top brass, and as long as he wasn't the final choice, his sabotage would be considered a success.

The authority of the police top brass will certainly be damaged by this.

This is his revenge. Does he really think he has no way to deal with the police?
The police have been getting too complacent recently, and I have to make them realize the situation.

Even if his power is affected, he can still influence the police.

This is a warning, a warning to Roton, and even more so a warning to senior police officials such as Shiva.

Warn them not to take themselves too seriously.

He is still the state home minister.

……

"Rodun, this is a very unexpected incident, and the headquarters is in a difficult situation." Shiva looked at Rodun in front of him and sighed, "But don't worry, the position of district director is gone this time, but I will definitely give you a satisfactory position next time."

"Director, I have no objection to the arrangement from above," said Roton.

Having said that, Luoton was actually very depressed because his position as the chief of the district police station was gone.

Among the first-class superintendents of police, is there any better position than the chief superintendent of police in Mumbai district?

Maybe Shiva will make up for it later and give himself some important positions.

For example, a powerful position in the Mumbai Police Department, or being directly transferred to the General Administration, will also be some powerful department.

But these are still far behind the powerful district police chief.

In the district police station, the chief has the final say and is the top person.

In the Mumbai Police Department or in the General Administration, there are many leaders above us.

Even if you are valued by senior leaders, aren't they still your superiors?
Every time you see someone at work, you have to put on a smile or something, right?
And power will also be greatly restricted.

But for now, he had to accept this result.

The chief of the North Central District Police Station knew that he had no chance this time.

Who could have imagined that the media would be flooded with news about this director candidate all of a sudden.

A lot of doubts came.

Of course, these doubts are not mainly directed at himself, but at senior officials such as the Maharashtra Police Director General and the Mumbai Police Commissioner.

These reports said that Rawdon had indeed made great contributions, but he was only a second-level police inspector after all.

It is obviously unfair to reserve a district director position specifically for him.

They approve of Roton and are strongly opposed to the actions of the police top brass, believing that they have violated the principles of fairness and justice.

They questioned the police top brass, asking if, apart from Rawdon, all other first-class superintendents in the police force were useless?
Such questions made the senior police officers very embarrassed.

If they insisted on leaving the position of district chief to Rawdon, wouldn't it really make people think that the other first-class police superintendents were incompetent?

This will also lead to conflicts within the police force.

If they didn't give this position to Rotun, the police top brass would feel sorry for Rotun.

In short, this put a lot of pressure on the police.

Of course, the public's reaction was not unanimous, and they were not led by the media.

Most people believe that there is no problem with Rawdon being appointed as the chief of the North Central District Police Department.

Maybe there are some first-class police inspectors who are good, but they are definitely far inferior to Rawdon.

A police officer like Rawdon who is not afraid of power and is so upright should be entrusted with important tasks.

It is only natural that he should be appointed as the district director.

But this time, the people's voices did not have that much influence.

The right to speak lies in the hands of the media.

This leaves the police with no choice but to respond to the matter.

As the impact of the terrorist attack is still there, the police do not want to create any more trouble, otherwise it will be easy for the government to find an opportunity.

Both Rodon and Shiva knew that it was Harari who was behind this.

But after this incident broke out, it was indeed found that the police had some procedural errors, and they really couldn't do anything to him.

The timing is so awkward. If Luoton's case is over, the police can naturally promote Luoton to a higher rank and then appoint him as district chief.

The problem is that these cases have not been concluded yet. Such a big case cannot be concluded just like that.

Not to mention that the case has not been fully investigated yet. Even if I have completed the investigation, the case-closing procedures will take time, and it will be too late.

Harari seized the opportunity and dealt Rodon a fatal blow.

It has to be said that this was a major blow to Rawdon's police career.

It is very likely that his originally smooth promotion was greatly affected.

It didn't ruin anyone's future, but it did waste a lot of Luoton's time.

This kind of sniping is no less than killing one's parents.

Originally, Roton thought that this was basically the end of the matter regarding Harari.

We are unable to remove his position as minister, and this is the final result.

I didn't expect that he would dare to jump out and target me.

It is true that he is a second-level police inspector, but in Harari's eyes, it may not be a big deal.

Even with the identity of CBI Special Investigation Commissioner, Harari obviously does not care too much because of the power behind him.

That's why Harari dares to target me.

However, I have made note of this matter.

If I don't kill this old bastard in the future, I won't be able to swallow my anger.

"I'm sorry for putting you in such a difficult position." Shiva said.

He was still very satisfied with Rotten's answer.

Roton still put the overall situation first and didn't care about these things.

This made him feel that he owed Roton even more.

Roton made a great contribution this time. Otherwise, even if he did not resign as the director, there would be changes in the competition for the position of director of the Mabang General Administration after this terrorist attack.

Of course, Rotun also understood what was going on here. As long as Shiva was fine and he continued to move forward.

Whatever I lost this time, I can make up for in the future.

When Shiva becomes the director of the General Administration, there will be plenty of opportunities to make greater compensation for himself.

So at this time, I can't be upset about not becoming the district director.

If I really dwell on this matter, it will make things difficult for Shiva.

This is not a wise choice.

Suffering a small loss now makes Shiva feel that he owes himself, and he believes that he will get greater benefits in the future.

Many times, subordinates like us need to know how to advance and retreat.

You cannot use your achievements to make things difficult for your leader.
