RAIPUR: The Enforcement Directorate, which is investigating the multi-crore "liquor scam" in Chhattisgarh, revealed on Sunday that it has unearthed corruption and money laundering amounting to more than Rs 2,000 crore by a syndicate that controlled and manipulated the entire chain of the liquor trade in the state.
ED claimed that the syndicate levied a commission per case of bottles, manufactured and supplied unaccounted country-made liquor, besides fixing an annual commission for obtaining distillery licenses, and distillers paid bribes as per the percentage of market share allotted to them.
