Ben Jager

Senior inspector Benjamin ''Ben'' Jäger, played by Tom Helmut Beck, the sixth colleague of Semir Gerkhan, arrives in the pilot episode of the 14th season "On your own", after he had been transferred for some misconduct made by his fellow colleagues. He comes from a rich family of important business in the very first episode. He tries to hide his origin, which would be shameful if it was revealed. In fact, in many episodes, his colleague blames him and also gets around, for example: in the episode ''Bodyguard'', Semir, when addressed, saying "I will not be raised with a lot of money like you", alluding to his turkish ancestry. It has a rival relationship with his father Konrad Jäger, as it is clear from the episode "Family affairs", Konrad's son would have liked to take the reigns of his thriving business, but he had preferred to join the police. He even tried to bribe Ben, to make it fail the exam. In the same episode his sister, Juliana, appeared. Ben is a very lively and likeable young man, he likes and listens to rock music, particularly bands like ''Nickelback'' and rides a high-power motorcycle. Although, being very messy, he is a good policeman. Ben is very smart, rational, athletic and can empathize well to the people he sought, this attitude can be useful in the case when he must predict the moves of the criminal, he's kind of a womanizer similar to André, showing off and being impressive. Initially, he did not expect much from his career, but after finding that it is not a job so boring, but full of action and excitement, he decided to stay in the forces. He also shows to be a good parent, as he has been shown taking care of Semir's daughter Aida Gerkhan. Ben leaves the forces and Germany altogether after making the hardest decision in his life, in the episode ''Executive decision'', Semir was forced to kill him in order to save his family, but he used this as a deception to fool the gangsters, he faked his death because the pistol Semir used on him was a blank-firing replica of the service pistol he used. After this nerve-racking moment he left so that something like this never again happens. He migrated to the United states, by starting a new career in Los Angeles, California as a musician, performing with his band the ''Backseats'', He made a brief appearance in the episode ''Happy birthday'', to celebrate Semir's 53rd birthday.
