Lagos State Police Command has arrested five suspects operating an illegal brewery in Ikorodu area. The illegal brewery was discovered to be producing fake malt and stout beverages. 

Police say they discovered that the illegal brewery produced malt drinks, stout and ethanol, which the suspects pump into trucks to bottle at another location. 

Police commissioner in the state, Edgal Imohimi, said the suspects would be further interrogated to know where the drinks are bottled and sold.

A similar discovery was made about a week ago in Mushin, where a man was arrested for producing fake wine and gin.
