Kuwait Busts Asian-Run Booze Factory In Abandoned House

Published

on

KUWAIT CITY, July 13: The Ministry of Interior announced that the Public Security Sector successfully uncovered an illegal alcohol manufacturing operation inside an abandoned residence in the Sabah Al-Salem area.

According to an official statement, authorities received reports indicating that Asian nationals were frequently visiting an abandoned house, raising suspicions of illicit activity. In response, security patrols were promptly deployed to the area to conduct surveillance and monitor the situation closely.

During the surveillance, officers observed a bus driven by an Asian national exiting the premises. The vehicle aroused further suspicion due to its connection with the house under watch. Upon stopping the bus, security personnel immediately detected a strong foul odor coming from inside. A search of the vehicle led to the discovery of approximately 1,160 plastic bottles, all suspected to be filled with alcoholic substances prepared for illegal distribution. The suspect was immediately detained for further investigation.

Officers then accompanied the suspect back to the abandoned house, where they made a significant discovery—a fully equipped underground alcohol manufacturing facility. Inside, authorities found:

  • Three large-scale distillation units
  • 210 barrels believed to contain locally distilled alcohol
  • 20 empty barrels presumably intended for future use

The Ministry confirmed that the suspect, along with all seized materials, was handed over to the relevant legal authorities. Investigations are ongoing, and appropriate legal action will be taken under Kuwaiti law.

Authorities reaffirmed their commitment to combating illegal alcohol production and distribution, urging the public to report any suspicious activity that may threaten public safety or violate the law.
