AP Liquor Scam: Properties of Accused To Be Attached

Those accused in the ₹3,200 crore AP liquor scam received a major setback on Friday. The Vijayawada ACB Court approved the attachment of their properties after hearing a petition filed by the SIT.

Earlier, the Court had returned the petition, but the SIT submitted it again with supporting evidence. After review, the Court gave its approval and also released GO 111 and GO 126 related to the case.

The SIT has so far arrested 16 people and filed cases against 48 in total. Among them, Chevireddy Bhaskar Reddy and Raj Kasireddy remain in remand, while Mithun Reddy and a few others are currently out on bail.

Those in custody are trying hard to secure bail, but the ACB Court’s latest order has made their situation more difficult.

Investigators allege that massive kickback money from liquor deals was diverted into real estate, hospitals, and election funding — all to convert black money into white.
