It is to be mentioned that a luxury vehicle was also seized along with the truck.
Earlier on April 7, the police raided the house of one Dhiren Boro in Assam Modertoli, Doboka, and seized a huge quantity of spurious liquor.
The value of the seized liquor was said to be lakhs of rupees.
The police received a tip-off about the illegal liquor racket being run by Boro in his house. Acting swiftly, a team of police officers raided the house and found a large quantity of spurious liquor being stored there.
However, Boro and his family members managed to flee from the spot on the pretext of police arriving. The police then launched a manhunt to nab the accused and his accomplices.
