A gang that produced spurious liquor and distributed it as premium liquor brands with original holograms procured from Haryana was busted in Ghaziabad on Friday.Police said the gang used a mix of cheap spirit and chemicals and added dollops of caramel to give the liquor colour. They recycled bottles of the original brands as well as the labels and, as a mark of authenticity, pasted original three-dimensional holograms on the bottles they distributed.A joint raid conducted by the police and the Ghaziabad excise department unearthed the racket operating from a small factory in Bamhetta near Hapur Bypass road. All the components were made in-house and the end product looked exactly like the original.
