An official of the excise department said that he received information about liquor bottles in the mart.

"We have raided accordingly and seized five bottles of liquor. We have detained the manager of the Mega Mart for questioning and are also scanning the CCTV footage to find out whether any officials are involved or if someone deliberately placed the liquor bottles to defame the outlet," the official said.
