3 held for supplying liquor

Two Nigerian nationals have been arrested for allegedly supplying beer in Delhi, police said on Friday.

A raid was conducted at a house in Mohan Garden following a tip-off that illicit liquor, along with food, was being served from a kitchen in the premises.

Police found 11 beer bottles and three quarter bottles. The two -- Michloho Kwunonso Onyeaka, 30, and Chilee Evans Inbamara, 22 -- could not produce any document regarding their stay in India, an official said.

A case has been registered under relevant sections and they were arrested. A case under Section 188 of the Indian Penal Code was also registered against the house owner for renting out his premises without proper verification, police said.

 

In other incident, a 20-year-old man in south Delhi's Neb Sarai area was arrested for allegedly supplying liquor from Haryana, officials said.

Acting on a tip-off, the suspect, identified as Rohit, was arrested on Thursday. Four cartons of illicit liquor were recovered from his possession, the police added.
