The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has initiated a formal investigation into a liquor syndicate operating in Gurugram, Haryana. According to preliminary findings, the syndicate sold 100,000 bottles of alcohol without proper licensing, amassing roughly Rs 10 crore in illicit proceeds.
The probe, which began earlier this week, aims to trace the source of the illegal liquor, identify the individuals involved, and uncover any links to broader criminal networks. ED officials have indicated that the investigation will involve forensic analysis of financial records and surveillance footage.
Law enforcement agencies in Gurugram have cooperated with the ED, providing access to relevant data and facilitating the seizure of suspect inventory. The authorities have also warned the public against purchasing unlicensed alcohol, citing health and safety risks.
