Also, the Command Anti-Smuggling Crack Team during one of its operations intercepted 40 drums of industrial alcohol known as ethanol.
The item, Maiwada said was strictly stamped by NAFDAC for industrial use, stressing that investigation revealed that some unscrupulous elements engaged in the distribution of the product to Idiroko community, who ignorantly dilute it with water and take it as an alcoholic drink.
