The Madras High Court has dismissed petitions filed by the Tamil Nadu government and TASMAC, challenging the Enforcement Directorate’s (ED) raids on the state-run liquor retailing corporation. The ED had conducted the raids based on allegations of financial irregularities and overpricing of liquor bottles amounting to approximately Rs 1,000 crore. TASMAC, in its plea, claimed harassment during the raids, which was refuted by the ED. The court’s decision marks a significant development in the ongoing legal battle between the state government and the ED over the controversial raids.
