Retired Chhattisgarh IAS officer Anil Tuteja has been arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with a ₹2,000 crore alleged liquor scam. Tuteja, detained along with his son Yash Tuteja, was taken into custody under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) after a fresh case was filed. The ED’s action follows the Supreme Court’s quashing of its earlier FIR, prompting a new investigation. The scam allegedly involved illegal collection from liquor sales and implicated several individuals, including former excise minister Kawasi Lakhma and senior IAS officers.
