A 38-year-old suspected smuggler was arrested from Delhi's Singhu Border with Haryana and 35 boxes of illicit liquor was seized from him, police said on Wednesday.
The accused was identified as Sameen, a resident of Uttar Pradesh's Shamli district, they said.
The boxes containing a total of 1,680 quarters of illicit liquor were seized from him along with the car used in the transportation, said Deputy Commissioner of Police (PCR) Sharat Kumar Sinha.
