Passengers aboard the Lucknow Junction–Barauni Express (15204) were shocked when a low AC complaint led to a bizarre discovery—316 whisky bottles hidden in an AC-2 tier duct. The stash, worth nearly 57 litres, included Officer’s Choice and After Dark Blue whisky, allegedly smuggled by coach attendant Ashish Kumar to Bihar, where liquor is banned. The bottles, wrapped in paper, were crammed above berths 32 and 34, blocking airflow. Alerted at Burhwal Junction, GRP and RPF teams seized the “treasure” at Basti station, a moment captured in viral videos. Ashish, from Khagaria, admitted to regularly hiding liquor in ducts and selling it at double price in Bihar. He was booked under Section 60 of the Excise Act and sent to jail. Bihar Cops Caught Planting Liquor to Frame Innocent Man in Muzaffarpur; Probe Ordered After Shocking Video Goes Viral.
