Two Bihar Railway Police Officers Arrested for Concealing Seized LiquorPreviousNext

Two Bihar Government Railway Police personnel, Havildar Narendra Kumar Singh and Home Guard Archana Kumari, were arrested for allegedly concealing 27 litres of liquor seized from the Garib Rath Express at Hajipur Junction. The seizure occurred during patrol duty, but the officers failed to report it and hid the liquor. A passenger's secret video and CCTV footage led to their arrest under the Bihar Prohibition Act. Police are investigating how the liquor was brought aboard and possible smuggling involvement.
