It was her father, and she began to tell her father ~ speaking in French = that it wasn't a real burglary: she and her boyfriend had hidden the things, broken the window, and made up the whole story in order to get money from the insurance company. What the woman didn’t know is that Officer Meharu speaks seven languages: Engish, Punjabi, Hindi, Urdu, Arabic, Gujarati- and French.
