Illicit liquor valued at R10 million was seized by police during a raid on a Douglas house in the Northern Cape on Friday 9 April.
The imported alcohol came through the borders of South Africa illegally, explained police spokesperson Colonel Mashay Gamieldien.
A 50-year-old man was arrested and charged with possession of illicit alcohol.
He was further charged for attempting to bribe a police official after he allegedly offered the police R170 000 to turn a blind eye.
After the cash was counted, it was seized as evidence, said Gamieldien.
