The FIR was filed on December 26 last year and the investigation continues against the officials, EoU officials said. The FIR was registered on the basis of the statement of Scorpio owner, Sushil Kumar Singh,, who said that his vehicle was seized by police on December 25, 2020 after they found five bottles of foreign liquor in it. Sunil was forwarded to jail. After being granted bail, he filed a petition before the Special Excise Court (Muzaffarpur) for his vehicle to be released. The court ordered the SHO to release the vehicle on January 11, 2023, but the vehicle was not released.
