In April, officials raided the Tasmac headquarters and some liquor factories after a major scam was suspected in the Tasmac Corporation. Authorities said the fraud was around Rs. 1,000 crore.
As part of the investigation, the homes and offices of film producer Aakash Baskaran and businessman Vikram Ravindran were searched. Later, Vikram’s properties were sealed.
Aakash and Vikram then filed a case in the Madras High Court asking for the enforcement officials actions to be stopped and the seal on their properties to be removed.
During the hearing, the court ordered Aakash to return certain documents and paused further actions temporarily. The case was heard again on August 6th, but the Enforcement Directorate asked for more time as their reply was not ready.
The judges were unhappy since they had already given extra time twice. They fined the agency Rs. 30,000 total and asked them to pay it to the Chief Justice’s relief fund. The next hearing is on the 20th.
