The crackdown on organized crime began with the arrest of the mother-in-law.

Chapter 498 Buckingham Entertainment Club

Linzhou City, as the political, economic, and cultural center of the entire Linzhou Province, can be described as highly developed.

When it comes to the nightlife of the entire province, Linzhou City is undoubtedly number one.

Buckingham Entertainment Club is the top-tier entertainment venue in Linzhou City.

"Director Qin, the owner of this Buckingham restaurant is named Wang Qiqiang. He started from scratch 10 years ago, selling fish at a vegetable market, and worked his way up to where he is today."

In Conference Room 3 of the Municipal Bureau, Qin Chuan was listening to a report on the specific situation of the Buckingham Entertainment Club.

As the executive deputy leader of the special task force for the crackdown on organized crime, Qin Chuan naturally had the final say on the group's affairs as long as Director Zhang Tianyu remained silent.

Moreover, Qin Chuan had already communicated with Zhang Tianyu, and Zhang Tianyu would fully support the work of cracking down on organized crime, allowing Qin Chuan to do whatever he wanted.

The person giving the report now is Zhang Laifu, deputy captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the High-tech Branch of Linzhou Public Security Bureau.

Zhang Laifu is 45 years old and has extensive experience in criminal investigation.

Since the Linzhou Public Security Bureau established a special task force to combat organized crime last year, Zhang Laifu has been seconded to the task force.

"Captain Zhang, isn't Buckingham Entertainment Club located in the High-tech Zone?"

Qin Chuan suddenly asked.

Qin Chuan had already looked at the relevant information about Buckingham Entertainment Club last night.

Qin Chuan has been at the Linzhou Public Security Bureau for a week now, and during that time he has reviewed some information related to criminal cases.

To be honest, one thing Qin Chuan hadn't expected was that the Linzhou Public Security Bureau had a rather large backlog of cases.

Of course, there were no major criminal cases, but the cumulative number of minor criminal cases was quite large, such as robbery, intentional injury, and even illegal detention.

Some of the cases involved have been dropped, while others have left the perpetrators still at large.

In the entire province, the Linzhou Public Security Bureau is the strongest, with the most complete staff and the best equipment.

Qin Chuan found it somewhat unbelievable that they couldn't even handle these small cases.

So why were these cases left unsolved? Why weren't the suspects caught and the cases closed? Qin Chuan felt there must be something going on.

Of course, the situation regarding these cases cannot be resolved overnight, and some things may be resolved incidentally in the process of advancing the special campaign against organized crime.

Another aspect is that Qin Chuan is particularly concerned about some cases, which are basically leads in Qin Chuan's hands.

Take, for example, the Buckingham case that he's been eyeing.

Qin Chuan targeted Buckingham Club because a girl had committed suicide by jumping off a building there a year and a half ago.

One of the staff members at an entertainment club, a waiter, committed suicide by jumping off a building, and the case was simply dropped.

what's the situation?

Zhang Laifu looked at Qin Chuan and nodded.

“Wang Qiqiang used to sell fish at a vegetable market in the High-tech Zone. He started to make his fortune 10 years ago.”

Zhang Laifu was clearly quite aware of Wang Qiqiang's situation.

“I was in charge of this case last year. During the investigation, I discovered some suspicious issues. For example, when the girl jumped to her death, some people said they saw her, but the eyewitness accounts of how and where she jumped were all different.”

Zhang Laifu continued, "Later, while we were handling this case, the deputy district head of the High-tech Zone who was in charge of our work came to our area to conduct research and supervise the case."

"At the time, people said the case was being handled too slowly, and that it was obvious that a suicide case didn't need to be investigated as a criminal case. Later, our branch chief asked me to transfer the case directly, and it was closed a few days later."

After saying that, Zhang Laifu sighed.
