After this, a big racket was revealed on searching.
Both the passengers sitting in the B-3 coach of the AC bogie had a backpack and a trolley bag. Both were filled with a lot of stuff. Seeing the RPF team, both started behaving strangely. This also made the RPF jawans suspicious. They asked both of them to open their bags and show it. At first, both of them hesitated, but when they were made strict, they opened the chain of the bag. As soon as the bags were opened, the RPF jawans were stunned. Both the bags were filled with liquor bottles. Taking immediate action, the RPF took both of them into custody and also confiscated the consignment of liquor.
