The police questioned a 27-year-old woman who admitted making moonshine ‘just for herself once or twice a month’. Every time she used 3 sacks of flour (about 150 kg). If her words is anything to go by, it turns out that the hostess and her husband had to drink about 10 liters a day….

The woman hid a makeshift distilling shop with 13 metal containers in the vault of over 30 square meters. Law enforcement officers had to dismantle it with the help of trucks.

As it is her first charge with illegal circulation of alcoholic beverages, the shiner may faces a fine of up to 30 basic units.
