According to the police officials, following a tip-off, they intercepted a truck carrying smuggled liquor here. Police said the seized liquor is worth Rs.375,000.
"The accused were taking the smuggled liquor to different towns of Haryana. They have been identified as Krishna Kumar, a resident of Rohtak district, and Sunil Kumar, a resident of Sonepat district. Their interrogation is on," a police official said here Tuesday.
