Telangana’s Excise State Task Force seized 30 bottles of liquor allegedly transported from Goa during a vehicle check in Nalgonda district. Officials detained the driver, confiscated the car and handed the case to the Nalgonda Excise Station for further action.

Telangana Excise State Task Force officials have seized 30 bottles of Goa-origin liquor allegedly being transported illegally to Nalgonda district and detained the vehicle’s driver. The operation took place during checks on the Cheruvugattu-Narketpally-Nalgonda route. The excise team acted on information about liquor being transported from Goa, according to the report.

A team led by Excise Circle Inspector Ganapathi Reddy intercepted a car on the Narketpally-Nalgonda road. Officials said they found 30 bottles of liquor from Goa inside the vehicle. The driver was identified as Yethigoni Krishna Kumar, 36, a resident of Nalgonda.

He was taken into custody after the seizure. Officials confiscated both the car and the liquor bottles. The accused, the seized liquor and the vehicle were later handed over to the Nalgonda Excise Station.

Further action in the case will be taken by the station, according to the supplied material. It does not provide details of the specific liquor brand, the intended destination beyond Nalgonda district, or the provisions under which the driver was booked. The report also does not state whether other people were suspected of being involved in the alleged transportation.

The seizure followed a vehicle-checking operation rather than a report of a sale or distribution of the liquor.
