America based German mafia, Dutch Schultz ko ab apni hi gang use chunauti dene lagi hai. Vincent naam ka aadmi, Schultz ke hi gang ka tha, jisne ab apni alag गिरोह bana li thi, taaki woh ab Schultz ko maar kar uske इलाके pe kabza jama sake. Vincent ne Schultz ke khilaaf ek gang War ko anjaam diya, jisme Vincent ne apne bhai Pete(पीट) ko kho diya. Issi gang war me ek bacche ke maare jaane ke baad se, media ne Vincent ko “mad dog” ka उपनाम de diya. February 1932, yeh woh din tha jab Vincent ek jaal me phans gaya. asal me woh ek drugstore ke phone booth ka istemaal, kisi ko call karne ke liye kar raha tha, ki tabhi gun liye gunde dukaan me ghus aate hai aur Vincent ko buri tarah se goli maar kar, uski hatya kar dete hai. हत्यारों me Schultz ka saathi Edward McCarthy(मैकार्थी) aur Weinberg(वेनबर्ग) bhai shaamil the. Iss tarah se Schultz ne apne power se, apne jyadatar dushamano ko maar giraya.
Jab Alcohol se ban(prohibition) hata, toh Schultz ki Bootlegging se jo kamayi aa rahi thi, woh achaanak band ho gayi. Jaisa ki aap jaante hai Bootlegging ka matlab hai Alcohol ki kaala bazaari, jiske dhande ne Schultz ko kaafi ameer aur powerful bana diya tha. Kyunki ab Alcohol pe se prohibition hat chuka tha, issi wajah se Schultz apne income ka dusra source khoj raha tha. Ussi beech American crime gang ka accountant “Otto”(ओटो) ne Dutch ko Harlem ke “number racket” ke baare me bataya, jise uss wakt Stephanie St. Claire naam ki ek black female mobster chala rahi thi. “Number racket” ya “number game” ek tarah se paison ki gambling ko kaha jaata hai. Harlem me uss wakt log apna paisa “numbers” yaani ki illegal gambling me lagate the, jise Stephanie pure Harlem me operate karti thi. Schultz ko bhi Otto ne yahi sujhaya ki “woh Harlem jaaye aur Number racketeering me apna haath azmaaye”. Otto ek middle age accountant aur Math genius tha, jo Schultz ko bata deta tha ki use kon sa daanv, number game me khelna hoga, jisse gambling me lagaye huye sabhi ke paise doob jaaye aur har baar game ko Schultz hi jeete. Otto kya karta tha ki Schultz ko aakhiri wakt pe apna daav badalne ke liye kehta tha, jisse koi bhi uski chaal ko samjh nahi paata tha. Otto ka calculation kaafi sateek tha. woh dimaag me hi calculation kar leta tha. Otto yeh insure karta tha ki game Schultz ke control me hi rahe, jo yeh decide karega ki kon sa number aakhir jeetega. Iss chaal se Schultz ko har mahine tax free multimillion dollars ki kamayi hone lagi. Wahi Otto ko har week 10,000 dollars diya jaata tha, jo aaj ke date me “1 crore 32 lakh” ke aas-paas hai. Itni kamayi har hafte sirf Otto ki thi. Schultz ki har mahine ki kamayi toh isse bhi kayi jyada thi. Number game ke alawa Schultz ne New York ke aas-paas ke restaurant maalikon aur workers se jabran vasuli bhi shuru kar di thi. Schultz ne Julie Martin naam ke ek bade aur khatarnaak gangster se haath mila liya. Julie aur Schultz ne milkar “waiters local” aur “cafeteria worker locals” संगठन ke netaon se saude kiye, taaki restaurant maalikon ko jabran “Metropolitan Restaurant & Cafeteria Owners Association” me shaamil kar, unse paise vasoole jaa sake. Yeh ek “employer association” tha, jise Schultz ne shuru kiya tha. Jo maalik iss association me shaamil hone se mana kar dete the, unhe aur bhi jyada paisa Schultz ko dena padta tha. Iske alawa un logon ko association ke taraf se Strike aur “Stink bomb attack”(बदबू बम हमला) ka bhi saamna karna padta tha. Iske baad Schultz ne “sweetheart contract” nikala, taaki restaurant maalik aur Schultz ke beech samjhauta ho sake. “Sweetheart contract” ka matlab hota hai ek aisa deal, jise aam taur par secretly taiyaar kiya jaata hai. Iss deal me kuch parties ko bahut faida milta hai. wahi bade paimaane pe khaaskar janta ko, nuksaan ka saamna karna padta hai. Issi deal me Schultz ke association ne restaurant maalik ko laalach diya ki agar woh uske association ko join kar lete hai, toh unhe kam paise association ko dene honge. Iske baad Schultz ka partner Martin ne restaurant maalikon se, “tribute” aur “dues” ke naam pe Schultz ke liye, hazaaron dollars vasoole. Issi ke baad jab Shultz tax trial kar raha tha, toh use shak hua ki Martin iss trial se bachne ki koshish kar raha hai. Schultz ne haal hi me hisaab ke book me dekha tha ki 70,000 dollars ki gadbadi hui hai. Iss gadbadi ko lekar Schultz ka shak Martin pe tha. March 2 1935 ke din, Schultz ne Martin ko New York ke hotel me, ek meeting ke liye bulaya. jaha pe Schultz ne Martin pe paison ki gadbadi ka aarop lagaya, jise Martin ne saaf roop se अस्वीकार kar diya. Martin ke anusaar usne koi gadbadi nahi ki thi. Uss meeting me Shultz aur Martin ke alawa, Schultz ka lawyer Dixie Davis aur Schultz ka saathi Bo Weinberg bhi maujood tha. Schultz aur Martin dono hi bahut jyada drink kar rahe the. Martin apne pe lage aaropn ko galat bata raha tha, ki tabhi Schultz Martin ke chehare pe jod ka punch maarta hai, jiske baad Martin kabool karta hai, ki ‘usne 20,000 dollars liye hai jiska woh harkdaar tha.’ Iske baad kya hua, yeh Dixie Davis ne khud bataya hai. “Dutch Schultz bahut khatarnaak tha. Who drink kar raha tha, ki tabhi usne apni gun baahar nikaal li. Schultz ne apni pistol, apne vest ke neeche pehni thi, pet ke thik saamne pant ke andar dabayi hui thi. Usne apni vest pe ek jhatka diya aur gun uski haath me aa gayi. Utni hi tezi se Shultz ne gun ko upar ki yod ghumaya aur Martin ke muh me ghusa kar trigger daba diya. Yeh kaafi asaan aur undramatic tha, bus haath ki ek halki si motion aur woh khatam. Dutch Schultz ne yeh murder itna casually kiya, jaise ki woh apne daanton ko nikaal raha ho.” Dixie Davis ne aage bataya ki jaise Martin floor pe gid gaya, waise hi Schultz ne Davis se uske saamne murder karne ke liye maafi maangi thi. Baad me jab Martin ke murder ki khabar jab Davis ne newspaper me padhi, toh woh yeh padh kar chaunk gaya ki Martin ki body ek snow bank pe padi mili, jispe chaaku ke kayi waar ke nishaan bhi the. Jab Davis ne iss baare me Schultz se sawaal kiya toh Schultz ne kaha ki “Maine uska dil kaat daala”.
Toh darshakon jaisa ki aap dekh rahe hai, Dutch Schultz ek क्रूर mafia tha. usse kisi ko bhi maarne me zara bhi wkat nahi lagta tha. Par sawaal yeh hai ki aakhir itna क्रूर mafia khud kaise Mara? Kya use kisi ne maara tha? Agar haa? Toh woh kon tha, jisne itne bade mafia ko maarne ki himmat dikhayi? Jaan’ne ke liye padhte rahiye humara yeh blog jiska naam hai Bollygrad studioz.
