In a significant crackdown on liquor smuggling, Chainpur police in Kaimur district arrested two women on Tuesday evening. They are accused of bringing illicit liquor from Uttar Pradesh and selling it in Bihar. A young man, identified as Krishna Bind, fled the scene, abandoning his motorcycle upon seeing the police checkpoint. Authorities are currently searching for him.

Chainpur Police Station इंचार्ज Ashok Kumar stated that vehicles were being checked near Amas village when a motorcycle carrying a young man and two women approached. The driver immediately fled after spotting the police, but the two women were apprehended. The arrested women have been identified as Dhanwati Devi and Anar Devi, residents of Sahe Bahen. Police seized 18 liters of দেশী liquor and a Hero Splendor motorcycle used in the smuggling operation.

The women have been booked under the prohibition law. Following medical examinations, they were sent to Bhabhua jail. Bihar has a strict prohibition policy, and cases of liquor being smuggled from Uttar Pradesh are common. Police are continuing their efforts to curb such illegal activities.
