Supreme Court halts ED's money laundering probe against TASMAC over constitutional concerns.

The Supreme Court has stayed the Enforcement Directorate's (ED) money laundering probe against Tamil Nadu's state-run liquor retailer, TASMAC, over corruption allegations in granting wine shop licenses. The court criticized the ED for "crossing all limits" and violating federal governance principles. The Tamil Nadu government and TASMAC had filed pleas against the ED's raids, arguing they were unconstitutional. The ED's probe is now on hold pending further review by the court.
