Tasmac staffer held for illegal sale of liquor

Coimbatore: A 28-year-old man was arrested on Sunday morning for selling liquor to public at a Tasmac bar at Amarjothi Garden in Tirupur.
The 15 Velampalayam police identified the accused as K Veerapandi, a native of Pudukkottai. He was a salesman with the Tasmac bar.
Pointing out that none of the shops were allowed to open on Sunday owing to complete lockdown, a police officer said Veerapandi had stored liquor bottles in the bar, which he opened for public, flouting the norms.
Police have seized 38 bottles of liquor from the bar and registered a case against Veerapandi under the Tamil Nadu Prohibition Act. TNN
