A recent SIT report has revealed shocking details of an alleged liquor scam in Andhra Pradesh, implicating former Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy as the main beneficiary of kickbacks from distilleries since 2019. The report uncovered a scheme where distilleries were reportedly coerced into paying commissions to prevent disruptions in supply orders. The collected cash was then allegedly laundered through hawala networks, significantly affecting the state’s liquor industry by promoting brands associated with syndicates. This scandal has raised serious concerns about corruption and illegal practices within the state’s alcohol business.
