Hisbah destroyed 2 million bottles of wine in Kano
Hisbah Commission of Kano State on Wednesday led the crackdown of more than two million bottles of wine that it seized across the state.
The project was carried out in the town of Hawan Kwalabawa in Dawakin Tofa local government in the state, under the leadership of the Commander-in-Chief, Sheikh Muhammad Sani Ibn Sina.
Giving details to Focus News Hausa source, Aminiya about the operation, the Commander-in-Chief of Hisbah said that the alcohol that was destroyed was seized on the main roads of the state and some drinking places.
"Most of the alcohol that we destroyed, we seized it on the main roads of the state when its owners were trying to bring it into the state.
"What we are doing is that we cut off the wine on the way to import it into the state, that is, we do not let it enter the town, let alone distribute it in the places of sale," he said.
The Commander-in-Chief stated that "We are carrying out this work by following the court's decision." The fact that we have our own law that allows us to seize intoxicants across Kano State. The law prohibits the importation of alcohol, its distribution, business, and consumption throughout Kano State. In short, it is forbidden to abuse alcohol in any way in Kano State," said Ibn Sina.
He also said that everything they do to spoil the wine is done according to the law.
"If we catch such items, we take them to court. She will also find the owners, then we will ask for her permission to allow us to destroy the beer. If we get the court's permission, we will take the goods and smash them and burn them," he said.
