Unexpected inconvenience

With the poll machinery deploying squads in adequate numbers to detect violations, there seems to be one sector that is routinely under suspicion.

Squads visit the bars to prevent bulk sales, and the owners contend they are now shelling out more to grease the palms of local politicians and policemen to keep the shutters open.
