This is coming after a week Hisbah Board seized a truck loaded with 3,600 crates of assorted beer covered with bags of chicken feeds.
The Commander General of the Board, Harun Ibn-Sina, was seen with some other members of the board uncovering the camouflage as they recovered some crates piled behind the bags of feeds.
