[Chhattisgarh Liquor Scam] “Statements Under Section 50 of PML Act, 2002 Can Be Used to Initiate Criminal Cases”: HC Denies Relief to Ex-IAS Anil Tuteja

The Allahabad High Court denied former IAS officer Anil Tuteja relief concerning the Chhattisgarh liquor scam, ruling the Uttar Pradesh FIR valid despite the Supreme Court quashing a related money laundering case. The court emphasized that ED witness statements can support ongoing criminal proceedings against Tuteja and others accused of involvement in a Rs. 2,000 crore syndicate.
