Over 8,400 bottles of beer have been confiscated by the Kano State Hisbah Board in Dawakin Kudu and Kura local government areas of the state.
The Commander-General of the board, Harun Ibn-Sina, revealed this to newsmen in Kano on Tuesday.
He said, “the vehicle was coming from Zaria to Kano when Hisbah officials arrested the driver.
“Hisbah Board has prohibited the sale of beer in the state to avoid being intoxicated.”
However, Ibn-Sina added that once the investigation was concluded, the suspects would be charged to court.
He said the command had ordered its personnel to be vigilant and ensure no alcoholic products are imported into the state.
