The control of PDRM

Becoming corporate mafia necessitated Rashpal through Ranjeet establishing a certain level of control within the police force. We are all familiar with the understaffed nature of the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM), particularly within the Commercial Crime Division (CCD). Moreover, the CCD lacks experienced and skilled personnel capable of effectively resolving cases. Even without undue influence, numerous CCD cases remain unresolved, often receiving the stamp of "No Further Action" (NFA). Seizing this opportunity, they (Rashpal and Ranjeet) cultivated relationships with high-ranking PDRM officers, primarily within the Brickfields station and at Bukit Aman. Some of these connections were forged through Punjabi ex-policemen who frequented the same Sentul Sikh temple. Ranjeet even enlisted Jesspal, the son of former policeman Manjeet, as his business partner in a number of ventures including KOUP. Beyond his role in enticing investors into Ranjeet's corporate scams, Jesspal provided access to his father's former acquaintances within the PDRM. Interestingly, Ranjeet even became a member of a chapter of Persatuan Bekas Polis, affording him even more connections within the PDRM. On the other hand, Rashpal deliberately maintained a distance from direct involvement with the police, occasionally joining social gatherings attended by former Inspector Generals of Police such as TS Khalid Abu Bakar and TS Ismail Omar. Rashpal always maintained an arms-length relationship with the police to ensure that the syndicate operated by him and Ranjeet remained inconspicuous. In fact, the duo never appeared together in public, seeking to avoid any suspicion, save for chance encounters on remote occasions. It was vital for Rashpal and Ranjeet to remain unconnected, allowing their scheme and collusion to persist unnoticed. Ranjeet had also provided high paying jobs to former high ranking police officers and even gifted luxury cars in exchange for favours. 

 

In dealings with lower-ranking police officers, Ranjeet maintained a deliberate distance. He enlisted the assistance of an individual named Dato Sri Ali Renggan (DSAR) as an intermediary. DSAR, an Indian Hindu convert, is a convicted criminal with a history of committing various minor offenses and evading consequences through bribing corrupt policemen. Ranjeet was introduced to DSAR by one of these policemen, subsequently making him a business partner. DSAR's role involved managing matters related to lower-level police officials and assisting with minor cases required by Rashpal. It is worth noting that DSAR's claimed Dato Sri title was later revealed to be fraudulent. He travels in a luxurious Mercedes Benz S-Class with fully tinted windows and an unauthorized yellow number plate. Interestingly, Ranjeet himself obtained a similar fake datukship through DSAR, allegedly from the purported Kedah palace. On one occasion, Ranjeet allegedly boasted to another doctor who was demanding payment from him, claiming to pay a monthly sum of RM100k to maintain influence over the police, warning the doctor to be cautious in his words and actions. Furthermore, Ranjeet allegedly utilized constables from the Brickfields police station to extract payments from borrowers associated with Asoke and G&P companies, resorting to literal extortion tactics. Several borrowers experienced the severe consequences of non-compliance with loan repayments to Ranjeet. 

Moreover, Ranjeet consistently managed to obstruct any action resulting from police reports filed against him, largely due to his influence over the police team stationed in Brickfields. Consequently, it is advised against making any police reports against Ranjeet, as they are likely to be labeled "No Further Action" (NFA), potentially leading to unnecessary harassment from the police. One individual, Subramaniam, who had a business dispute with Ranjeet even faced threats of false report charges when attempting to take action against Ranjeet through police reports.
