Today, On 1st April, During a hearing on the Tamil Nadu government’s plea against the ED’s searches at TASMAC headquarters, the Madras High Court questioned the timing of the raids. Justice S.M. Subramaniam noted that even state agencies conduct searches, but Advocate General P.S. Raman clarified that the state does not conduct late-night raids like the ED. The court raised concerns over officials being prevented from leaving the premises during the searches. The matter continues to be reviewed by the bench.
