NCD Taskforce commander

NCD Taskforce Commander, Mark Mosinakave, says despite the destructive nature of the homebrew production and sales, people are still carrying out this illegal activity.

“They think that what they are doing is good for them, but they do not realise that they are affecting the community as well as contributing to law and order issues,” he stressed.

Between 3 and 5am today, the personnel carried out the raid at the Vadavada settlement area and in the process, detained a family of six.

NCD Taskforce commander, Mark Mosinakave, outlined that the suspects were under surveillance by police who were tipped off about the illegal production they were carrying out.

The raid held six people, a husband and wife, their son and granddaughter and two other male relatives.

The raid produced 160 litres of steam stored in numerous containers as well as pre-packed 500ml containers along with 10 buckets of the illicit spirit.
