Reborn as a Police Officer in India

Chapter 562 The Chief of the Law Enforcement Bureau's Tacit Approval
Powell stared at his younger brother with some surprise.

He realized he had underestimated Pan Sida; he hadn't expected him to say something like that.

It must be said that Pan Sida's words make some sense.

The People's Party may not want to provoke Rodon now, but that doesn't mean they won't dare to touch him after winning their third victory.

Judging from the current public support, the People's Party should have little doubt about winning the next election.

He was in charge of the law enforcement bureau, and although its intelligence network was not as good as the Central Bureau of Investigation, it was still much stronger than most other departments.

With three consecutive terms in power, the People's Party's future power will be unparalleled, and no one will be able to rival them.

Although Rodon has a lot of influence now, when the time comes, if the People's Party is willing, Rodon won't get the better of them.

As Pan Sida said, it's basically impossible for Rodon, the acting director, to be promoted to the permanent position.

The People's Party will not tolerate the Central Bureau of Investigation being outside its control.

Thinking about it that way, Powell realized that he really didn't need to care too much about Rodon.

Rodton's dominance is almost gone; after the election, Rodton will no longer be a threat.

“Brother, you need to show some strength. The law enforcement agency is at its peak right now, and the Central Bureau of Investigation is still trying to make a last-ditch effort? You shouldn’t give them a chance. This time you’re not directly targeting Rodon. At worst, you can have your men target Sori. Leave this to me. If anything goes wrong, you can just pin it all on me. Sori is just a businessman. He may be rich, but so what? Arresting him shouldn’t be difficult, right? Do you think Rodon would openly support Sori? I think that’s unlikely.” Seeing that his brother was starting to waver, Pan Sida continued to persuade him.

He had given this matter considerable thought.

Pan Sida naturally understood the power and influence of the people on Rodon's side.

So, he really put a lot of thought into persuading his older brother to help deal with Sori's people, and even consulted some people before coming up with this explanation.

“Arresting Sori isn’t appropriate. Putting aside the fact that he’s one of Rodon’s men, he’s already a celebrity in society. Right now, the main task of the law enforcement bureau is to cooperate with the People’s Party to suppress political enemies. We can’t make too many enemies in other areas.” After a while, Poveyd spoke up, “However, targeting Sori is feasible, such as arresting some of Sori’s men. I will have someone cooperate with you on this matter, but don’t mess it up.”

Bowen felt that his brother's suggestion was feasible.

Since Rodton became the acting director of the CBI, the law enforcement agencies have indeed lost the edge they once had when facing the CBI.

This left the entire law enforcement bureau somewhat frustrated.

After all, the law enforcement bureau's assertiveness only lasted for a short while, and people were still somewhat dissatisfied.

Everyone in the law enforcement agency was burning with rage, eager to completely crush the Central Bureau of Investigation.

It's easy to go from simplicity to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

The days of their rampant tyranny had only lasted a few days, and people were just getting used to it when the Central Bureau of Investigation's power was consolidated with Rodton's rise to power.

This prevents their law enforcement agencies from acting as recklessly as before.

I feel so restricted and uncomfortable these days.

Not to mention his subordinates, Boveder himself had the same idea.

The fact that the Central Bureau of Investigation could still stand up to him meant that his power as the head of the law enforcement agency was being restricted.

Consider the current strength of the People's Party and its bright future.

Bowen felt that putting some pressure on Rodon's side was perfectly feasible.

He won't directly clash with Rodon, but what does it matter if he targets some of Rodon's subordinates?
If he doesn't even dare to do these things, then he might as well quit being the head of the law enforcement bureau.

It's good to let my younger brother test the waters this time.

If anything goes wrong, he can easily shift the blame, and even his younger brother won't be implicated.

After all, this time he didn't directly target Sori, but rather some of Sori's subordinates.

A few days later, Sori visited Roton in New Delhi.

Sori spends most of his time in Mumbai, India’s financial center, where he oversees a wide range of businesses, covering almost every industry.

He is a newly minted tycoon.

However, he was still very clear about his status and position, and he knew who had given him everything he had.

Sory admired Rodon to the extreme.

He's been with Rodton since the early days, when Rodton was the chief of police in Harreg.

At the time, Rodton was involved in cases concerning mines, the Chief Minister of Mabang, and others.

So, the fact that a low-level police chief could make such a big fuss made Sory think Rodon was reliable, so he has been following Rodon's instructions all these years.

Many business matters were instructed by Rodton.

Some things might seem unreasonable to Sory, especially during the Cyrus competition. If it weren't for Rodon's insistence, his side probably wouldn't have achieved what it has today.

In Sory's view, Rodon was truly an envoy sent by the gods, and whatever Rodon said must be true.

Today, Soli is a very prominent figure in India.

His entire demeanor was completely different.

However, in front of Rodon, he was still the same small businessman he used to be.

"You could have just told me over the phone, why did you have to come all this way?" Rodon asked with a smile. Seeing that Fia had personally brought him a cup of tea, Soli quickly stood up to thank her and respectfully accepted it.

"This matter is a bit complicated, and it's hard to explain over the phone, so I thought I'd come over to consult you," Sori said after sitting back down on the sofa.

"Tell me about it," Rodon said, showing some interest.

The fact that Sori came in person must mean something big.

Over the years, Sori's companies have provided a considerable amount of funding to the Maharashtra People's Party.

These are mostly the public information; Kanina and her team's biggest source of funding comes from Sori.

Of course, what Sori provided was the support of Rodon.

Although the Mabang People's Party has big stars like Itas and Lisa, who bring their own fans.

However, relying solely on fans is definitely not enough to win votes.

We need to give those supporters real benefits, such as money or goods.

These all require significant expenditures.

Without a strong economic foundation, it is impossible for a political party to grow stronger.

For example, the People's Party and the Congress Party also need financial support from various forces.

These established political parties generally have their own support bases, and some local parties, in particular, often collude with local monopolistic financial groups.

One party contributes money and the other contributes efforts.

Once the party they support comes to power, those who provided campaign funding will reap double the rewards.

"Here's the thing, there's a real estate project in New Delhi recently, and Povey's brother, Panstar..." Sori didn't beat around the bush and directly told Rodon the whole story.

"The law enforcement agency got involved?" Rodon was somewhat surprised after hearing this.

It's no secret that Sori is one of our own.

Anyone with a bit of inside information should know this.

Targeting Sori is tantamount to targeting oneself, isn't it?

It's impossible that Poveyd didn't know about this. Was his decision to do this his own idea, or was it instigated by Nirmala?

If it's Nirmala, then it means the BJP has intervened.

That Rodon really needs to take this seriously.

“It’s not clear yet whether Powell knew about this,” Sori said. “I know a bit about Panstar. Over the years, he’s been making money off his brother Powell. Many people have been ruined and destroyed by him. He’s a bastard. Panstar definitely knew about the arrest of several of my men by the law enforcement bureau. It’s basically related to him. Given his status, I think he can still get some people in the law enforcement bureau to help him.”

Rodton thought it made sense.

Panstar is Powell's younger brother, and many people in the law enforcement agency have to curry favor with him.

So it's not surprising at all that Pan Sida would seek help from the law enforcement agency if he needed anything.

However, since the law enforcement bureau dared to target their own people this time, they need to be thoroughly investigated.

“Regardless of whether this was authorized by Boved, at least one thing is certain: Boved was definitely aware of it. Pansida’s actions must have been approved by Boved,” Rodon said in a deep voice.

Even if they didn't know beforehand, after arresting someone, their subordinates would still report to Powell.

So far, the law enforcement agency hasn't sent me any information, which shows that Powell has no intention of informing me at all.

Arresting people often implies that the target is someone they are targeting.

“Actually, that’s what I think too. Although Panstar is arrogant and domineering outside, there are some things he definitely wouldn’t dare to do recklessly. Without Bowayd’s tacit approval, he probably wouldn’t dare to do it,” Sori said.

That's why Sori came to ask Rodon for instructions.

If it's just competition between shopping malls, even if the amount involved is not small, he would consider it a minor matter and would generally not come to Rodon.

Sory was well aware of the complicated history between the law enforcement agency and the CBI.

With law enforcement getting involved, especially since it might be related to the chief of law enforcement, Powell, Sori is worried that the law enforcement might be targeting Rodon.

This matter could be serious or minor, so we must be careful.

Therefore, he had to report these matters to Rodon.

This involves some struggles in the political arena and officialdom, and the outcome will have a significant impact.

It could even affect the course of his life for the rest of his days.

This was a big deal, and Sori dared not be careless at all.

"Are your men themselves problematic?" Rodon asked.

"This?" Sori gave a wry smile. "If the law enforcement agency really wanted to find fault, they could definitely find a lot of charges against me. But don't worry, I've kept in mind all the things you told me not to do, and my subordinates wouldn't dare to do them either. If anyone is caught doing anything, I won't tolerate it."
