Fake liquor production gang busted in E. China

Xinhua, September 28, 2015 Adjust font size:

Police in east China's Anhui Province said they have busted a large fake liquor production gang and destroyed 14 of its production sites.

Police also seized over 30,000 bottles of liquor falsely packaged under famous domestic brands and 8.5 tonnes of substandard liquor in Dangshan County, Anhui, said the Anhui Provincial Public Security Department.

All 12 members of the group, including its three leaders, have been detained. In 2013, they began purchasing inferior liquor, bottles and packaging materials from neighboring Shandong, Jiangsu and Henan provinces and sold the liquor under false brands in Anhui, Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan and Zhejiang provinces through their networks.

Police are still investigating the case. Endi
