Saudi Arabi Seizes 48,000 Cans Of Beer Disguised As BEBSI COLA

There’s a pretty firm law in Saudi Arabia that completely bans alcohol. Even though the law forbids it, there are a fair amount of folks who still find a way to get their hands on some booze. One guy in particular had a pretty creative plan to sneak some beers across the border.

According to the Washington Post, the smuggler was caught with 48,000 cans of Heineken disguised as Pepsi. The cans were carried in a truck which was stopped for a standard starch and inspection. It quickly became obvious that there were simply stickers over the beers.

This incident was one of the many attempts at smuggling beer into the country, according to customs officers. The penalty for smuggling alcohol can be as severe as a prison sentence.
