The avalanche of complaints the Commission has received, according to a statement from CCPC public relations officer Rainford Mutabi, is the cause for alarm.
According to Mr. Mutabi, certain distributors are suspected of organizing cartels with middlemen to sell alcoholic beverages for exorbitant sums.
He added, “In light of the aforementioned, the CCPC continues to review this situation and will disclose the conclusions upon conclusion.
