The police seized around 600 litres of spurious liquor from the accused, the official said.

He said both the accused were making spurious liquor from spirit.

This illegally made liquor was being filled in bottles of popular brands and sold in Indore city and surrounding areas by putting fake labels on them, the official said.

The police seized around 600 litres of spurious liquor, a large number of empty bottles, their caps and other equipment from the possession of the accused, he said.

However, a similar case took place two years ago in which six people died of consuming spurious liquor.
