After reading the file for more than half an hour, poworth slammed the file in his hand on the table. Most of the investigations on the possible criminal acts of the fellow villagers'' Association have no substantive evidence, and many are speculative.
Even if a few have determined that they have some evidence, it is far from enough to pull someone down, and more importantly, some of the characters on these files have become government officials.
For example, Alfonso, who lists a separate file, describes him as a criminal organization leader who is used to murder, but in fact, these clues often come from some folk gossip, that is, rumors.
There is not much evidence available, which can only prove that some people have indeed disappeared, and Alfonso may have a certain relationship with the disappearance of these people, but there is no deeper content.
This is very troublesome, especially Alfonso has taken office as mayor. It is said that the support rate is ridiculously high, so it is even more impossible to continue to investigate these things through official means.
After thinking about it, Bowers decided to use some inappropriate methods to catch Turing''s small handle - private investigation.
In fact, after the new party came to power, in order to put an end to terrorist politics, it has written into the charter the prohibition of any form and sense of surveillance, investigation and filing of cases against serving officials. If a serving official does have sufficient evidence to prove that he is suspected of certain criminal activities, he also needs to submit sufficient evidence chain to the imperial Supreme Court, and then launch impeachment against this official, Only after the hearing and impeachment are completed and the officials are removed from office can the case be filed for investigation.
At first, many people thought that this was a bill passed by the new party to protect and protect their own people. In fact, after so many years of implementation and proof, this bill has no selfishness and no problems.
It has a very important contribution to stabilizing the political situation and stabilizing the society.
Therefore, private investigation is determined as illegal. Illegal is not illegal, but these acts are inappropriate, not protected by law and not recognized by justice.
Even if Bowers has some key evidence, it is not enough to become important evidence in court and affect the direction of the final trial.
Bowers also knows this, but he still wants to do so. These investigations that can not become evidence can play an important role in other places, such as public opinion.
When all the public opinion is attacking Dooling, he will soon have to resign and step down because of public opinion. At that time, it will be more justifiable to file a case for investigation. Boworth scored 99 points for his plan.
No full score is to make himself less proud. Suddenly his head doesn''t hurt and his mood becomes better.
On the other hand, poworth''s phone did not interfere with Turin''s mood at all. For Turin, this guy will be eliminated by the times sooner or later, and poworth may disappear on the political stage without his hands.
Now the General Chamber of Commerce in ambillo is very flustered. The main reason is that the retreat of the imperial central bank has left them where they are, especially the business owners of leather goods factories haven''t slept all night after they know the news.
For him and many enterprises like him, the simplest way to avoid tax is to arrange an illegal middleman, and then the middleman buys leather from the leather merchant at the market price and sells it to himself at several times the price.
The finished products made of raw materials obtained through high prices are consistent with the market price, which will inevitably lead to losses. The full deficit on the statements makes them almost don''t need to pay any taxes.
Then, the middleman finds a sum of money from the outside to enter the corporate account of the leather factory by means of fund-raising and investment, and the money becomes an additional amount that does not need to pay tax. Then, in the statement of the chamber of Commerce, although there are many deficits, it can still make a lot of "investment" every year.
This income will soon be distributed according to the composition structure of enterprise shareholders, and finally flow into some people''s pockets, while others flow into some anonymous accounts, completing the whole process of tax evasion.
This is the customary operation of many small and medium-sized manufacturers. They have escaped a large number of taxes that need to be paid illegally and unreasonably. Even if there are problems in the normal inventory, the most critical link of middlemen can disappear quickly and end up in nothing.
However, the concession of the bank will make the cash flow of the leather factory transparent, and it is easy to grasp many problems according to the flow of funds.
Even if they do their homework well at the bank, they will eventually reveal their secrets.
They are not gangs and are used to trading in cash. Moreover, after Dooling proposed the "bill" system to the Ministry of Finance and Lani three years ago, especially in enterprises, a large amount of funds must be traded by bank transfer.
This makes the middleman''s account can''t be really hidden. As long as you look carefully, you can certainly find clues.
Unless they employ a large-scale money laundering organization poker covering the whole world to launder money, they can''t hide anything, regardless of whether the handling fees of money laundering will make them lose money. Only Mr. Jack and Dooling of the Empire are good friends.
This is a dead end situation.
So someone needs to sacrifice.
It was the luxurious room again. The doors and windows were still closed. People from the General Assembly looked at the business owners of the leather factory expressionless. Others and some entrepreneurs looked very embarrassed.
"Now the best solution is for you to plead guilty..." the lawyer of the chamber of Commerce looked at the documents in his hand and continued, "Ambillo was not our main battlefield before, so there may be some problems in the construction here. The management and operation are too rough. You are still operating in the way you did 15 years ago, which just gives Turin an opportunity."
He put his papers on the table next to him and looked up at the entrepreneurs in the room, "In addition to the leather goods factory, we will not discuss it for the time being. You will immediately disclose the real financial report to the tax bureau, then pay all taxes, and take the initiative to pay the fine to avoid further expansion of the problem. When necessary, we can find opportunities for you to set up a new company in other places."
"As for you...", the lawyer frowned. "The newly passed tax law may make you face sentences ranging from six months to three years. You don''t need to worry about anything."
"We will arrange your life inside. After you come out, the sacrifice made as a secret will always give you satisfactory compensation."
"I need to tell you that whether you are suspected of committing a crime or breaking the law, the chamber of commerce is unaware of it. All this is your spontaneous behavior and has nothing to do with the chamber of Commerce, okay?"
The lawyer had an annoying smile on his face, "then I will expose some of your violations on behalf of the General Chamber of Commerce of ambillo. This is not to persecute you, but to protect you."
"As we said at the beginning, we let you avoid more severe punishment to the greatest extent. Temporary failure can exchange for a more reliable friendship of the chamber of Commerce. In fact, you earn money."
"From now on, you can''t directly contact me or any senior management of the chamber of Commerce. You can convey your opinions and ideas by contacting the law firm provided by us, and we will feed back the information in this way."
"If there is no objection, we will proceed as planned."
Because the special profession of lawyer involves many private secrets, and those who can afford a barrister are often celebrities and dignitaries in the society, in order to protect their privacy, the communication between them and lawyers will be strictly kept confidential and a legally effective confidentiality agreement will be signed.
Even judges cannot force them to provide the information they know, which constructs a stable and safe communication channel between some individuals who are not suitable for public contact.
After looking at it, everyone had no objection. The lawyer put away his smile and asked people to open the door, "very good, gentlemen, I still need to deal with some things at the chamber of Commerce. If you have any questions, remember to tell you the contact information."
He put on his gloves and hat, smiled and nodded, "well... Good night, gentlemen, I wish you a good dream!"
