Raipur/IBNS, March 10 -- The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Monday raided former Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel and his son Chaitanya Baghel's residences in connection with the multi-crore liquor scam, media reports said.

At least 14 locations linked to the Baghels have been raided.

The probe agency feels the beneficiaries in the scam siphoned around Rs. 2,161 crore through multiple schemes.

The scam had allegedly led to the unaccounted sale of country liquor from state-run shops leading to a massive loss to the state exchequer.

The ED claims, as per reports, the entire money was siphoned by the syndicates.
