Most of the ploticians are either closely related to criminals or are criminals themselves...I read a very insightful aritcle a few months ago in a library, I dont remember the name of the magazine :( ...I'll go to the library soon and try to post it on here..
I'll tell you whatever little I remember and hopefully, I'll make some sense
I read a point which said that the criminals usually are rich, and the political parties find them to be very helpful in campaigning, etc etc..they are helpful in terms of funding hence, the criminals join the parties. And also, it's a very well known fact that criminals, goondas, mafia leaders have a mind-blowing influence over anyone they want 😃 ..so, the political leaders choose such criminals so that they can rise to power. Powerful criminals have a powerful influence over anyone, and that's the MAJOR reason for the existence of criminals in politics.
If you think about it, if a political party has a powerful criminal, it is protected from opposition party and other rivals and keeps rivals at bay.
There are politicians that employ criminals as their bodyguard, security officers etc. The mafia is in close connection with the politicians too. And, as the politicians are under the threat of mafia...they are bound to practise illegal things themselves even if they dont employ a criminal, it's a complicated organisation..and most of the people involved in politics arent all goody-goody.
The judiciary is also influenced by the mafia...it's all highly inter-linked, and therefore everyone's shutting their mouth on Sajjan Kumar.
If you have watched or read novels like Bourne Identity(all the three parts), Godfather etc., you'll know how the governement, criminals and mafia work. Especially in Bourne Identity/Supremacy/Ultimatum we can see criminals who work for the govt. whilst recieving protection under them.
Sorry if I couldnt make myself clear :(
