In Cape Town, a dangerous secret lurks: bootleg brandy, made with toxic chemicals, is poisoning people. A police roadblock uncovered a hidden factory where industrial alcohol, meant for cleaning, was turned into fake brandy. This deadly drink, containing methanol, causes blindness and death, yet it’s sold cheaply, luring in vulnerable drinkers. Authorities are fighting an uphill battle against these cunning criminals, who constantly find new ways to make and distribute their dangerous concoctions.
