St. Petersburg police conducted a large-scale raid on the establishments of one of the largest chains of bars with cheap drinks in the city. Employees checked 15 points in nine districts of the Northern capital and seized from circulation more than 125 liters of “scorched” alcohol. This is reported by the press service of the GU MIA of Russia in St. Petersburg and Leningrad region.

We are talking about a network of bars with low prices "Contact Bar". The reason for the raid was numerous incidents in the establishments of the network. Since January 1, police have counted 771 clashes: noise, conflicts, fights, robberies, beatings and much more. After so many appeals, the authorities decided to find out whether the bar complies with the requirements of the law.

The inspections took place in the Admiralty, Vyborg, Kalinin, Kirov, Nevsky, Petrograd, Central and Frunzensky districts. The police spoke to 317 employees and visitors, 70 of whom were foreigners. More than 125 liters of alcohol and alcohol-containing products were seized from illegal trafficking. Experts determine the origin of this incomprehensible alcohol.

18 people were taken to the territorial police departments, and 11 administrative offenses were revealed, mainly in terms of violation of migration laws.
