Foreign liquor worth ₹2.98 crore seized from Tharad's Khoda checkpost

Police have seized a large consignment of foreign liquor worth ₹2.98 crore from the Khoda checkpost located in Tharad, Banaskantha district. According to a report by Sandesh, this action was taken during intensive vehicle checking conducted by the police late last night. Police were surprised while searching a suspicious Punjab-passing trailer container passing through the Rajasthan and Gujarat border. A total of 60,444 bottles of Indian-made foreign liquor, hidden very cleverly in this container, were found.

Apart from this consignment of liquor, the police have seized seizure material worth more than ₹3.28 crore, including the trailer container. Two persons, including the driver of the trailer involved in this serious crime, have been arrested from the spot. Currently, the police are conducting intensive interrogation of both the accused. At the local level, this action is being viewed as the biggest liquor seizure incident in the history of the Vav-Tharad area. The police have foiled this high-profile method adopted by bootleggers to escape the police's gaze. Following this successful operation, the work of the police is being praised.
