Two days after Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC), Kancheepuram, booked 10 police, Tasmac and PEW officials including former DSP of Mamallapuram R Subburaju, the agency’s sleuths on Saturday raided 20 houses and offices linked to the accused in different districts.
The others booked are T Kannan, former Tiruporur inspector, A Ahamed Ullah, former assistant commissioner (excise), Kancheepuram, M Balakrishnan, former assistant commissioner (excise), Kancheepuram, V A Ravichandran, DSP (PEW), Kancheepuram, M Pandi, former Kelambakkam inspector, and M Chiranjeevi, former Mamallapuram inspector.
Several officers on the list had been transferred after Tasmac agent Nellaiyappan of Tiruporur committed suicide in front of the Mamallapuram police station on May 28 after accusing them of demanding huge bribe to run bars illegally.
The house of DSP Subburaju in Palavakkam, former ADSP (Prohibition Enforcement Wing, Kancheepuram) A Manikkavelu’s official quarters in Mylapore, Madurantakam PEW inspector A Arockiaraj’s house in Chidambaram, apart from the office of former district manager (Tasmac) Iyyavu in Kancheepuram were among those raided on Saturday, said DVAC sources.
Gold, cash, fixed deposit receipts and several other crucial documents are said to have been seized. The DVAC first information report (FIR) said only five of the 106 Tasmac bars functioning in Kancheepuram district that includes several Chennai suburbs are legal.
The FIR said Chiranjeevi collected bribe from illegal bar owners between May 2018 and February 2019 and gave it to senior jurisdictional police officers. Manikkavelu recommended that inspector Chiranjeevi be given additional charge of PEW units in Kancheepuram to collect bribes for himself and others, said the FIR.
Inspector Arockiaraj, who held additional charge of PEW Mamallapuram, allegedly allowed illegal bars to sell liquor from other states, it added.
