A Big Fish Caught In AP Liquor Scam?

The Special Investigation Team, SIT that was commissioned to investigate the Andhra Pradesh liquor scam that was done during the previous YS Jagan government is carrying on with the investigation effectively. After having recently arrested Raj Kasireddy, a close associate of Jagan, the SIT has caught another big fish in this case. 

This time, it is Govindappa Balaji who is the director of Bharathi Cements and is believed to be a close associate of YS Bharathi. He reportedly had a crucial role to play in the money laundering activities that happened through the course of the liquor scam. 

Govindappa was arrested by SIT Police in Mysore, Karnataka. The police are currently preparing the transit order to bring him back to Andhra Pradesh, where he would be investigated further with regard to details and facts pertaining to this case.

This hypo position individual had recently approached the Andhra Pradesh High Court for anticipatory bail in the liquor case, but got rejected. He then approached the Supreme Court as well, but again, the Apex court also refused to give any such order.
