SHIMLA: In a major crackdown on illegal liquor activities, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has provisionally attached assets worth Rs. 9.31 Crore linked to M/s Kala Amb Distillery and Brewery Pvt. Ltd.
The seized assets include a valuable industrial plot with a factory and building worth Rs. 5.31 Crore in Solan, Himachal Pradesh, and a sprawling land measuring 22504 sq. mtr. with a factory and building valued at Rs. 4 Crore in Holongi Village, Arunachal Pradesh.
The ED's action comes in light of the alleged involvement of Dorjee Phuntso Khrime in generating proceeds of crime through the illegal supply of liquor in Bihar.
The brewery based in Kala Amb is accused of flouting regulations and engaging in the clandestine distribution of alcohol in the state.
This move underscores the authorities' commitment to curbing illicit activities within the liquor industry, sending a stern message that unlawful practices will be met with severe consequences.
The ED's provisional attachment of assets aims to strike at the heart of the alleged illegal operations exposing the Kala Amb Distillery.
