A total of 75 adulterated liquor bottles worth nearly ₹1.5 lakh were seized by the State excise officials during a raid conducted at Trops Bar in Ayyappa Society in Madhapur.
Bar manager V. Satyanarayana Reddy and staff member Punith Patnaik from Kukatpally, were arrested for mixing cheap alcohol into premium bottles at the bar.
The incident came to light when the officials from the Lingampally excise station visited the premises after discovering that the bar’s licence was not renewed. Suspecting irregularities, the officials carried out a thorough inspection. The arrested individuals were found tampering with high-end liquor bottles, filling them with low-priced alternatives.
Bar licence holder Uday Kumar Reddy was also named in the case. Further investigation are under way.
