Panchkula, June 4
The Panchkula police today claimed to have arrested a Delhi resident, an accused in an illegal liquor factory case. The illegal factory was unearthed at the HSIIDC, Barwala, on May 25.
The suspect has been identified as Amit Goyal, a resident of Pitampura, North Delhi. He was produced before a court, which remanded him in judicial custody.
Earlier, the police had arrested seven suspects - Dinesh Bansal, Rahul Gupta, Sanjeev Singla, Ankit, Monty, Kamal and Ravi – in this connection.
It is pertinent to mention here that the CM Flying Squad had received a tip-off that some people were manufacturing and selling illegal liquor from a factory at Barwala. The suspects were supplying liquor on the pretext of setting up water filtration systems. A team, led by ASI Vinod Kumar, and two officials of the Excise Department raided the factory on May 25. When they entered the premises, four suspects were packing liquor bottles.
A case under the Punjab Excise Act, Haryana Excise Act and Sections 420, 308 and 120-B of the IPC had been registered against the suspects. — TNS
