Port Blair, Apr 06: Just five days before the Elections, A & N Police has seized 616 bottles in a raid at School Line Basti.
According to report on 5th April 2014, a raiding team comprising staff of Special Branch Crime Investigation Department and and Central Crime Station jointly conducted a raid at School Line, Ranchi Basti and detected 616 bottles of IMFL.
In this connection one K.Jay Kumar S/o Late Karupaiah (30) yrs Pan Shopkeeper R/o School Line, Ranchi Basti has been arrested under Excise Regulation. According to report these bottles were kept for April 10, the election day, which will be Dry Day, however, no link with any political party has been found yet.
Such large quantity of liquor, however, raises many questions.
This is one of the largest haul of IMFL seized by CCS on collaboration of SB (CID) staff this year. Police will continue to fight against this menace to eradicate the illegal trade of illicit liquor and IMFL.
“The members of the general public are requested to inform about any credible information pertaining to iilegal sale or possession of liquor/ganja or any other illegal activity on the following telephone Numbers – 233307, 9531856175, 242198, 9434289985, 9531856155 and 100. The identity of the informer will be kept secret,” a release from CID said here today.
