The Enforcement Directorate on Friday conducted fresh searches in Tamil Nadu in connection with the TASMAC-linked money-laundering case, officials said.

About 10 locations linked to TASMAC officials and agents are being raided under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), they said.

TASMAC is a state government body that has monopoly over liquor trade in the state.

The federal probe agency had conducted the first set of raids in this case in March.

It had then said that alleged irregularities in the operations of TASMAC were found including "manipulation" in the tender processes and "unaccounted" cash transactions of Rs 1,000 crore through distillery companies.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
