Three New York Police Depart-ment commanders were arrestedon Monday, along with a Brooklynbusinessman, on federal corrup-tion charges linked to one of sev-eral continuing investigations intoMayor Bill de Blasio’s campaignfund-raising.
The arrests were one of themost significant roundups of po-lice supervisors in the recent his-tory of the department — a deputychief and a deputy inspector ac-cused of accepting expensive giftsfrom two politically connectedbusinessmen who prosecutorssay were seeking illicit favorsfrom the police.
In court papers unsealed onMonday, federal agents describehow the two men, who are at the
center of one of the City Hall fund-raising inquiries, showered giftson senior police officials: jewelryfor the police inspector’s wife; avideo game system for the chief’schildren; tickets to Brooklyn Netsgames; hotel rooms in Rome andChicago; even a private-jet flightto Las Vegas, with a prostitute onboard.
The police officers arrested onMonday were Deputy Chief Mi-chael J. Harrington, 50; DeputyInspector James M. Grant, 43;and Sgt. David Villanueva, 42,who was charged in a separate butrelated scheme involving gun li-censes. The businessman ar-rested was Jeremiah Reichberg,42, of Borough Park, Brooklyn.

NEW DELHI — The Indiangovernment announced sweepingchanges on Monday to throw openits economy to foreign invest-ment, providing a new path forglobal titans like Apple and Ikea tocapitalize on the country’s growth,
the fastest among the majoremerging markets.
The long-awaited rules, insti-tuted through executive order,reinforced the government’s planto develop more business-friendlypolicies as the country looks tospur job creation and maintain itsmomentum. Domestic and inter-national companies have longcomplained about the difficulty of
doing business in India, a factorthat has stymied investment andgrowth.
While the economy is still ham-pered by the country’s infrastruc-ture deficiencies and sprawlingbureaucracy, the changes repre-sent a greater shift away from thesocialist and protectionist policiesof India’s modern post-independ-

The Grieving Isn’t Over
Some details of the Orlandonightclub massacre are known tothe minute: The first reports ofgunfire came at 2:02 a.m. Thegunman made a 911 call at 2:35a.m., in which he pledged alle-giance to the Islamic State. By 5:15a.m., as hostages fled to safety, helay dead or mortally wounded in ascene of unimaginable carnage.
Many questions persist aboutthose three hours at the blood-drenched Pulse nightclub, andabout how law enforcement han-dled the crisis on June 12. Orlandopolice officials have been pep-pered with queries from the pub-lic, survivors and the news media
about whether they should haveconfronted the gunman soonerand whether any of the victimswere shot by the police.
The city’s police chief, JohnMina, and other officials have re-peatedly defended the delay instorming a bathroom where thegunman had taken hostages, andhave deflected questions aboutwhose bullets did what damage.On Monday, Chief Mina answeredin a way that left open the possibil-ity that some of the 49 people

DAHIYAT AL BARID, WestBank — At 4:15 a.m. on a dead-endstreet, a 33-year-old Palestinianman came running from theshadows between buildings with arickety wooden ladder. Heslapped it against the hulking con-crete wall and climbed up, hoist-ing himself the last six feet be-cause the ladder was too short.
The wall, which Israel beganbuilding more than a decade agoto thwart the suicide bombers ofthe second intifada, is supposed toprevent Palestinian residents ofthe occupied West Bank from en-tering into Israel outside militarycheckpoints where their paperscan be examined.
But the Palestinian manperched in a gap in the concertinawire that tops much of the snaking400-mile route of the wall. He mo-tioned to a white Daewoo sedanthat had lurched to a stop below,and one by one, four young menstepped out of the car, climbed the13-rung ladder, and slid down arope on the other side.
Within minutes, another carwas speeding the men to con-struction sites in Israel, wherethey did not have permits to work,and the man with the ladder wasleaving to look for more job seek-ers willing to pay to scale the wall.
“In the West Bank, you havehustlers,” said the man, who, likemore than two dozen otherPalestinians interviewed for thisarticle, spoke on the condition ofanonymity because he was break-ing the law. “You can either callthem hustlers, or you can callthem brokers.”
This furtive predawn crossingis part of a thriving smuggling in-dustry that allows untold num-bers of people to pass over, under,through or around what Israeliscall the security barrier — for aprice.

The future Mrs. Donald J.Trump was puzzled.
She had been summoned to alunch meeting with her husband-to-be and his lawyer to review aprenuptial agreement. It requiredthat, should the couple split, shereturn everything — cars, furs,rings — that Mr. Trump mightgive her during their marriage.
Sensing her sorrow, Mr. Trumpapologized, Ivana Trump later tes-tified in a divorce deposition. Hesaid it was his lawyer’s idea.
“It is just one of those Roy Cohnnumbers,” Mr. Trump told her.
The year was 1977, and Mr.Cohn’s reputation was well estab-lished. He had been Senator Jo-seph McCarthy’s Red-baiting con-sigliere. He had helped send theRosenbergs to the electric chairfor spying and elect Richard M.Nixon president.
Then New York’s most fearedlawyer, Mr. Cohn had a client listthat ran the gamut from the dis-reputable to the quasi-reputable:Anthony (Fat Tony) Salerno,Claus von Bulow, George Stein-brenner.
But there was one client who oc-cupied a special place in RoyCohn’s famously cold heart: Don-ald J. Trump.
For Mr. Cohn, who died of AIDSin 1986, weeks after being dis-barred for flagrant ethical vio-lations, Mr. Trump was somethingof a final project. If Fred Trumpgot his son’s career started, bring-ing him into the family business ofmiddle-class rentals in Brooklynand Queens, Mr. Cohn usheredhim across the river and into Man-hattan, introducing him to the so-cial and political elite while fero-ciously defending him against agrowing list of enemies.
Decades later, Mr. Cohn’s influ-ence on Mr. Trump is unmistak-able. Mr. Trump’s wrecking ball ofa presidential bid — the gleefulsmearing of his opponents, theembracing of bluster as brand —has been a Roy Cohn number on agrand scale. Mr. Trump’s responseto the Orlando massacre, with hisominous warnings of a terroristattack that could wipe out thecountry and his conspiratorial

Trump Fires Manager
Donald J. Trump enters the gen-eral election campaign laboringunder the worst financial and or-ganizational disadvantage of anymajor party nominee in recenthistory, placing both his candi-dacy and his party in political per-il.
Mr. Trump began June with just$1.3 million in cash on hand, a fig-ure more typical for a campaignfor the House of Representativesthan the White House. He trailedHillary Clin-ton, whoraised morethan $28 mil-lion in May, bymore than$41 million, ac-cording to re-ports filed lateMonday nightwith the Fed-eral ElectionCommission.
He has a staff of around 70 peo-ple — compared with nearly 700for Mrs. Clinton — suggestingonly the barest effort toward pre-paring to contest swing states thisfall. And he fired his campaignmanager, Corey Lewandowski, onMonday, after concerns among al-lies and donors about his ability torun a competitive race.
The Trump campaign has notaired a television advertisementsince he effectively secured thenomination in May and has notbooked any advertising for thesummer or fall. Mrs. Clinton andher allies spent nearly $26 millionon advertising in June alone, ac-cording to the Campaign MediaAnalysis Group, pummeling Mr.
