The income tax department has seized nearly Rs 340 crore in what is being called the largest cash haul in a single operation in Odisha, from multiple factories of an Odisha-based distillery linked to Congress's Jharkhand MP Dhiraj Sahu. The cash is currently being counted by over 50 bank employees using 40 machines, and the enforcement directorate is expected to investigate the money trail and potential money laundering aspects once the counting is complete.

Massive Cash Haul Exposes Congress MP's Financial Controversy

The income-tax department's searches against an Odisha-based distillery company, owned by a Congress MP's family, have resulted in a cash seizure of Rs 351 crore, making it the "highest-ever" haul in a single action by any probe agency in India. The raids, which have been ongoing for five days, were conducted on charges of tax evasion and "off-the-book" transactions. The cash is believed to be unaccounted money earned from cash sales of country liquor. The BJP has criticized the Congress and other opposition parties, accusing them of fearing exposure of their corruption.

DEA Agents Conduct Controversial Cash Seizures at Airline Gates

DEA agents disguised as ordinary passengers are conducting searches on airline passengers at their gates, targeting minorities and seizing cash without making any arrests. Passengers are often unaware that they have the right to refuse the search, but doing so may result in detention. The government's civil asset forfeiture process requires victims to prove that the seized money was not involved in a crime in order to get it back, often through a complex and partial settlement. The agency seizing the money is allowed to keep a portion for themselves. This abusive practice has led to lawsuits and a nationwide class action. It is advised not to carry large amounts of cash at the airport, as it can be subject to confiscation.
