The Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Mr. Raghav Magunta, the son of Mr. Magunta Srinivasulu Reddy, in the Delhi Liquor Policy Scam. It is to be noted, Mr. Srinivasulu is the Member of Parliament (MP) of the ruling Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP.)
According to sources, on the evening of the 10th of February, Saturday, the ED arrested Mr. Raghav Magunta under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA.)
Mr. Raghav Magunta is expected to be produced before a local court, where the ED would seek his custody for further investigation into the matter.
Notably, this is the ninth arrest made by the ED in the Delhi Liquor Policy Scam. The Delhi Liquor Policy Scam named top politicians, businessmen and retailers from the southern states as accused. The ED and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) started the Delhi Excise Policy money laundering probe in 2022, naming Mr. Manish Sisodia, the Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi and top leaders of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Government as prime accused.
The matter is still under investigation.
