ED summons former Minister Ambati Rambabu in liquor transport scam case

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has summoned former Minister and senior YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leader Ambati Rambabu in connection with a ₹250-crore liquor transport scam case. The ED issued a notice on Friday, compelling Mr. Rambabu to appear before the investigation officers on September 24. Allegations suggest that the former Minister had a close relationship with certain YSRCP leaders who secured a contract to transport liquor from depots to shops.

These YSRCP leaders are accused of causing significant financial losses to the government during the previous administration's term. The ED requested Mr. Rambabu to present details of his bank transactions over the past few years, along with other relevant documents, as part of the investigation.
