The Chhattisgarh ACB/EOW has recently seized a half-burnt cache of fake holograms from the premises of liquor scam accused Anwar Dhebar, the elder brother of Raipur’s Congress mayor Aijaz Dhebar, and arrested 3 persons in this connection.
He stated that, Anurag Dwivedi, Amit Singh and Deepak Duari burnt some duplicate holograms in 2022 on the instructions of Anwar Dhebar and one more person, Arvind Singh, amid fears of a raid on the premises by the ED, which is probing the alleged liquor scam that took place between 2019 & 2022 under the previous Congress government in the state.
The state Anti-Corruption Bureau/Economic Offences Wing has named several Congress leaders and firms in it’s FIR registered in January this year under the IPC and Prevention of Corruption Act on the basis of a report by the ED.
The fake holograms were allegedly made in a firm in Noida,UP.
Incidentally, the UP police registered a case there against 3 Chhattisgarh officials, including 2 IAS officers, and Anwar Dhebar in July last year on the complaint of a Raipur-based deputy director of the ED.
Anwar Dhebar and one more person got arrested by UP police last month and are in jail there at present.
