In Irkutsk police continue to detect violations of alcohol sales rules, one kiosk on Lermontov Street was caught selling alcohol after midnight, and on Chkalov Street drinks were sold at a banned time and without required documents. Since the start of the year more than 120 tons of alcohol containing products have been seized from illegal sales. Police remind about the current restrictions and ask to report violations by the listed phone numbers.

One such pavilion was identified by employees of the Department for Economic Security and Anti-Corruption on Lermontov Street. Officers witnessed how, after midnight, a whole line of people wanting to buy alcoholic beverages formed at a store at the “Chaika” public transport stop. An administrative report has been drawn up against the saleswoman, who violated the law prohibiting the sale of alcohol at night.
The next violators were found by police on Chkalov Street.
