The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has intensified its probe into the Andhra Pradesh liquor scam, bringing more senior YCP leaders under scrutiny. After issuing a notice to former Rajya Sabha MP Vijay Sai Reddy, the agency has now summoned sitting MP Mithun Reddy for questioning.
Mithun Reddy is scheduled to appear before ED officials on January 23, following Vijay Sai Reddy’s questioning on January 22. The back-to-back summons have grabbed political attention, as both leaders are believed to have played significant roles in the previous government’s liquor policy decisions.
Investigators allege that the liquor policy framed and implemented during the YS Jagan government was heavily influenced by a small group of political leaders. While Vijay Sai Reddy is named as an accused, he was not arrested due to his cooperation with the state-appointed Special Investigation Team (SIT). Mithun Reddy, on the other hand, was identified as a key accused and was arrested after his legal relief attempts failed, though he later secured bail from the ACB court.
The ED’s investigation into Mithun Reddy focuses on alleged financial dealings related to the liquor policy, participation in high-level meetings, and actions that purportedly caused losses to the state exchequer. The agency is now probing potential money laundering angles, including how funds were collected, routed, and allegedly passed on to higher levels.
With two influential leaders being questioned in quick succession, political circles suggest that the liquor scam investigation has entered a decisive phase, signaling that the ED probe is far from over.
