Investigation Reveals Fake Permits, Duplicate Holograms and Hawala Links in State Liquor Scandal

According to the agencies, part-B of the charge sheet concentrates on the illegal production chain that relied on forged permits and duplicate holograms to disguise illicit liquor as legitimate stock. These falsified documents allegedly enabled the distribution of alcohol to government-run shops across Chhattisgarh. Parallel to the supply chain, investigators have uncovered a hawala and angadi network that transferred the illicit earnings across state borders and to accounts in Dubai, raising concerns about money-laundering dimensions of the case.
