Some unidentified persons broke into a liquor shop at Roshnara Road in north Delhi and decamped with liquor bottles. The incident occurred on the intervening night of Saturday-Sunday, barely 25 meters away from the police picket in the area.
According to a senior police official, during patrolling on Saturday morning, police found that the shutter of a wine shop at the Roshnara Road in north Delhi was broken.
“The shutter of the wine shop had been forcibly pulled up and some liquor bottles and crates were stolen. A case under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) has been registered at the Sabzi Mandi police station,” said the senior police official.
The Crime graph of National Capital in last 15 days has shown a 42 per cent downfall. “It seems that miscreants or addicts are taking advantage of such situation and just to fulfill their addiction needs now they are breaking into liquor shops,” said Aditya Okhade, a resident.
The liquor shops are closed in city after the lockdown was imposed across the country in wake of coronavirus outbreak.
