A Hindustan petroleum oil tanker, carrying alcohol, was seized in Bihar's Muzaffarpur.
An oil tanker was found carrying liquor in Bihar, officials said on Wednesday. About 200 beer crates were found in the Hindustan petroleum tanker and brought to the excise police station. The Nagaland-registered tanker was seized from Muzaffarpur while the smugglers fled.
Officials said the excise department had received a tip about the liquor consignment, after which they formed a team to arrest the smugglers. The officials set up a road blockade, seeing which the smugglers turned the tanker towards a national highway.
“After being chased, the driver and the liquor trader left the tanker on the national highway and fled,” said Vijay Shekhar Dubey, Assistant Excise Commissioner.
