The Madras High Court has dismissed petitions filed by the Tamil Nadu government and TASMAC challenging the Enforcement Directorate’s (ED) raids. The ED conducted the raids based on allegations of financial irregularities and overpricing of liquor bottles amounting to approximately Rs 1,000 crore. TASMAC, the state-run liquor retailing corporation, accused the ED of harassment during the raids, which the ED has refuted. The court’s ruling signifies a setback for the state government and TASMAC in their legal battle against the ED’s actions. The case highlights the ongoing legal and financial issues surrounding the liquor industry in Tamil Nadu.
