Over eight lakh litres of seized liquor and 40,233 impounded vehicles were lying in police stations across the national capital, the Delhi Police told the Supreme Court Wednesday.
In an affidavit filed before a bench of Justices Madan B Lokur and Deepak Gupta, the police said a policy has been formulated to de-congest police stations by removing or disposing of impounded materials lying there.
The police has said that a "policy has been formulated with the object to decongest police stations by way of removal/disposal of seized/impounded material/vehicles and to ensure that such materials do not create impediment in the smooth flow of traffic and do not become breeding grounds for disease carrying vectors."
