Chapter 508: Impossible
Zach immediately collected some files and made a few pointers. He then opened his desktop and started typing something after opening a file. By the time the officer came back with the appointment of the President and Election Commission head, he was done typing and taking out a printout.
Once again he checked all his papers and files before leaving. Once he was satisfied with what he had in his hands he smirked and went ahead with the officer of the military intelligence services to meet the President.
Zach eventually met both of the dignitaries and gave them a complete account of the situation regarding the violence that occurred during the voting. He had also mentioned that Bill Grey was the one behind the booth capturing to gain votes and win the elections with unscrupulous methods.
"Sir, I am here not only for this small incident but because we need to disqualify Mr. Bill Grey from the elections and hold the elections again or accept the second highest voted member as the winner. This can be duly decided by the election commission.
You can see a few evidence here which clearly shows that Bill Grey has not only been involved in illegal dealings with the mafia, but also in money laundering and many other very serious crimes. If he wins this election he will pose a serious threat to the country's security and integrity, hence we must stop this from happening at any cost.
Sir President, I am here to get your permission for his arrest and also to request you to cancel his eligibility for contesting the elections permanently and ask the election commission to release that order." Zach submitted everything in front of the President and the Head of the Election Commission and asked for their signatures on the arrest warrants he brought with him. They readily agreed to his request after seeing the kind of threat posed by such a person winning the elections.
After receiving the required permissions and issuing the arrest warrants Zach called the base and asked for two groups of soldiers to be ready and prepared for action to leave with him. As soon as he reached there all the soldiers were ready with their protective gears and weapons to fulfill every order Zach gave.
Zach had done a thorough background check on Bill Grey and did not want to take any risk as he was not aware how many of his men would be deployed around his place. Zach along with his entire team reached the mansion of Bill Grey. They stopped at the main gate and commanded the guards to open the gate. The guards were stupefied when they saw the huge commotion and they were intimidated seeing the soldiers carrying weapons ready for any encounter.
The guard immediately called inside and told the situation to Bill Grey who was still half asleep. He partially understood what the guard said and took it as if the military was there for his protection and protocol as he would be the most probable winner.
Bill was so deeply drowned in his thoughts of victory that he unconsciously started to believe only what he wished to. He smiled triumphantly and told the guard to allow them all to enter the premises.
"B……but si……sir… it looks like they are here for some mission. They all are heavily equipped with weapons and large in numbers." The guard whispered on the phone.
"What? Why are they carrying weapons?" He was not able to understand. He knew he had to let them in so he asked the guard to allow them and started making a few calls to confirm if the situation was still in his favour and whether or not he had been exposed by anyone. Once he got the replies in his favour he relaxed and got ready. He even woke up Gracy and asked her to come down in a while.
"Our golden period is going to start from now on darling! You can do whatever you want once I am sworn in as the President. Now come down soon and don't miss this opportunity of catching the first glimpse of guard of honour of the next President of this country." He said to Gracy and went down hurriedly……
….
In the living room Zach was standing with a dozen soldiers behind him and waiting for him. Bill Grey walked down the stairs with his chin up, pride so clearly emitted from his aura that Zach could not help but smirk a little and shook his head. He understood that the agencies had been very discreet and Bill was not even aware of what was coming up next for him.
Bill Reached down and instead of greeting Zach he showed his haughtiness and pride as he went and sat down on the sofa with his legs crossed. He then looked up and fixed his eyes on Zach and spoke in a domineering tone.
"Good morning Field Marshal Zach Zacharias! Long time no see, how have you been? It appears that your father-in-law is not going to win this election and you have finally realized to whom you must pay your respects to,?that's why you are here so early in the morning. Am I right?"
"Good morning Mr. Bill Grey. I am not here to pay you an informal visit but my purpose this visit today is completely official. I am here on behalf of the office of the President and the intelligence agencies of both police and the military to safely move you from this place to the……"
Before Zach could say what he wanted to Bill interrupted and said, "Ohh! Have the rules of the country changed in the last few weeks that you are here as my guard of honour? Am I eligible to shift to the official President's manor even before I take the post of the President officially?"
Zach chuckled and walked closer to Bill, taking out the copy of his arrest warrant from his pocket. He opened the paper and flashed it in front of his eyes and taunted, "You are under arrest, Mr. Bill Grey, under the charges of committing treason and inciting violence in the country."
Bill Grey was left stunned when he heard Zach. He was frozen for a long time before?uttering a word, "Impossible."
