They had collected IMFL bottles from the agriculture land owned by Vijay Parmar and were on their way to Gandhinagar to deliver to a bootlegger. Information is that Rohitsinh and Vijay smuggle liquor from Rajasthan and stored it at the farm of Vijay. From here, they used to deliver whenever a demand was raised by bootleggers, said the officer.
