The supervisor of the TASMAC outlet had secured the outlet sealing the shutter using a welding machine since there was huge stocks stored.
A five-member armed gang allegedly tied up the watchman of a TASMAC outlet to a pole, broke open the lock and escaped with thousands of liquor bottles in Kalayarkoil police station limits in the early hours of May 31. Police said that following the COVID-19 lockdown, TASMAC outlets had been shut. The supervisor of the TASMAC outlet, situated on the Kollangudi Muthur Salai, had further secured the outlet by sealing the shutter using a welding machine. A watchman was also deployed since the outlet had huge stocks. Police said that the watchman, Kannan, was tied with a rope. The gang then broke open the lock and escaped with the booty in about 30 minutes, in the cover of darkness.More Related News
