Guna's Dharanavda police seized 62 litres of raw liquor and arrested wanted offender Abhishek Pardhi, who had a Rs 1.20 lakh reward on his head.
The Dharanavda police station in Guna district, Madhya Pradesh, reported the capture of Abhishek Pardhi, a notorious criminal who had a bounty of Rs 1.20 lakh on his head. Officers intercepted the suspect while he was riding a motorcycle loaded with 62 litres of raw, unlicensed liquor, a clear indication of his involvement in illicit alcohol trafficking.
According to the police, Pardhi was attempting to transport the contraband when a routine check led to a swift raid. The seized liquor, described as "kacchi sharaab," is illegal for consumption and often linked to health hazards and unregulated markets.
The operation underscores the ongoing efforts of Madhya Pradesh law enforcement to curb the illegal liquor trade, which has been a persistent problem in several parts of the state. Authorities have not disclosed any further arrests or the intended destination of the seized alcohol.
Pardhi's apprehension is expected to deter similar smuggling activities, and the reward money will be released to the informant who provided the tip-off, as per standard procedure.
The police continue to monitor the region for any related criminal activity and have urged the public to report suspicious movements of liquor or other contraband.
