Train thuggery

Reported on June 6, 2011 from Patna , Bihar  ι Report #8378

I was coming back from Nepal with a bottle of Whisky to sell as I was a budget student traveler at the time.

In the afternoon I was on the train going south towards Delhi when cops came and said that Bihar was a dry state and I would have to get down at the next station.


My friend said that was code for "Give me some cash and we will walk."

It was my first time in India and now its 34 years later. Ha ha time flies.

It seems innocuous now but I was a bit scared at the time because I had hears horror stories about jails in India.
