Uppala, January 31: The police seized 216 litres of Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL) and 175 litres of spirit from a car in Uppala, a town near the Karnataka border.
Acting on a tip-off, a police team led by Manjeshwaram Additional Sub-Inspector Chandrasekharan recovered the spirit, filled in five plastic cans of 35-litre capacity each and 1,200 bottles of 180 ml capacity packed in 25 cases, the police said. However, no one was arrested in connection with the seizure.
The police said they had received many complaints that spirit, a major raw material for manufacturing illicit liquor, smuggled from Karnataka was being sold to customers in the Kasargod district after adding colour to it.
