Batic - 34 - Der Prügelknabe

Resumen

It should be so nice: Munich Chief Inspector Ivo Batic has applied for leave. His cousin Branka with her husband Darko and their 15-year-old daughter Malina come to visit from a small town near Mitrovica. The women want to go shopping, Ivo Batic will show them Munich. The body of the Kosovo Albanian Maruf Selmani is found in the undergrowth on the banks of the Isar. Selmani was tortured before his death. Batic is affected by Selmani's death, he feels called upon to solve the case because of his background and his knowledge. At police headquarters, Chief Inspector Wolfgang Hackl from Nuremberg reported to Carlo Menzinger that he was about to start work. He takes over the vacation replacement for Batic. The Franconian chief inspector is extremely precise in the investigations that follow and strains the nerves of the two inspectors to the breaking point. In addition, Chief Inspector Franz Leitmayr has to put the brakes on his colleague Batic, who, despite his vacation, is getting into an ongoing interrogation with the car dealerFritzi Wagner. Wagner is said to have connections with arms deliveries to the UCK. A fight ensues. Batic, his relative Darko - like him a police officer - want to help. Wagner is injured in the argument and Leitmayr is caught between the fronts. He resents Batic's constant meddling from vacation. And Batic finds himself sidelined by his fellow homicide detectives for the first time. It gets worse: Batic wants to apologize to the car dealer for his rough gait. He finds himself in a fateful situation, at the end of which he ends up in the line of fire of police investigations as a murder suspect. Leitmayr and Batic are seriously at odds, but Carlo Menzinger has identified the culprit: Franconian Hackl is not the clean man he claims to be, his biography contains inconsistencies. The crisis came to a head when those involved realized that tranquil Munich was by no means spared the effects of the war in the Balkans.
