Raipur. ED is continuously taking action in the case of alleged liquor scam of Rs 2000 crore in Chhattisgarh. Four accused related to the liquor scam are in jail under judicial custody. At the same time, ED is interrogating an accused by taking him in remand. Meanwhile, Commissioner of Chhattisgarh Excise Department ISS Niranjan Das has filed an anticipatory bail petition in Raipur District Court on Monday. There will be a hearing on this on 16 June.
The Enforcement Directorate had sent summons to IAS Niranjan Das on May 19 for questioning in the Chhattisgarh liquor scam case. As Excise Commissioner, ED has doubts about the role of Niranjan Das, which it wants to clear. Despite this, IAS Niranjan Das did not participate in the inquiry. It is being speculated that seeing himself trapped, a petition has been filed for anticipatory bail on his behalf.
