liquor bottles seized in raids.

According to news report the goats of cattle-rearer, Ramesh Patni, fell unconscious after they consumed liquor, bottles of which were destroyed in an open farm on Tuesday last by police.

Kheralu police, sub-divisional magistrate and other high-ranking officials were present there to monitor the disposal procedure but some amount of liquor must have accumulated in small puddles across the farm.
The police had crushed the liquor-bottles by using a road-roller and disposed them.

Patni said the goats consumed the liquor after finding it “tasty” and then fainted. He said he was bemused on finding his some goats “tipsy”. The goats regained some consciousness after 12-14 hours of the incident,
