The allegations of corruption coming out of the Charbonneau Commission and the ongoing work by the Hammer Squad are circling back into the Montreal police force.  

One of the force's senior officers is being assigned work unrelated to corruption cases because of his connection - by marriage - to construction firms in Laval.  His wife and her family are involved with the firms, two of which were raided earlier this month by the Hammer Squad.  That investigation centered on contracts issued by the City of Laval.
