Liquor scam accused denied bail in Rs.1660 cr money laundering case.

December 7, 2024

Case Laws     Money Laundering     HC

The High Court rejected the application for grant of regular bail filed by the applicant accused of offences u/ss 420, 467, 468, 471, 120-B IPC and Sections 7 & 12 of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 relating to a liquor scam and money laundering case. The Court observed that economic offences are grave, affecting the country's economy, involving huge loss of public funds posing a serious threat to financial health. The applicant played a pivotal role in facilitating payment of bribes to criminal syndicates involved in extorting illegal commissions and unauthorized sale of liquor causing an estimated Rs.1660 crore loss to the state exchequer. Considering the severity of offences, gravity of accusations, ongoing investigation and the Supreme Court's view on corruption being an enemy of the nation, the Court opined release on regular bail was not proper.
