Customs officials were expecting a consignment of soft drinks when the truck attempted to cross the Al Batha border.

A man then takes out what gives off an impression of being a can of Pepsi, with a blue wrapper and a red and white logo.
Be that as it may, he quickly acknowledges something isn't right and with a little hassle, slices off the wrapper to uncover a green can of Heineken.

The Director General of Customs speaking after the incident highlighted on the extent that the dealers would go through and that they were repeatedly experimenting with imaginative approaches to get liquor across the Saudi borders.
Abdulrahman Al-Mahna told the Saudi Gazette: 'a truck carrying what first seemed to be normal cans of the soft drink Pepsi was stopped’. 'After the standard process of searching the products, it became clear that the alcoholic beers were covered with Pepsi's sticker logos.'
According to news site alarabiya.net, the suspect was caught and apprehended.
The possession of liquor is banned in Saudi Arabia and dealers can be sent to jail in the event that they caught, found guilty and charged.
