A mini-bus driver caught driving in an inebriated condition the previous day was sentenced to a day’s jail term by a local court here on Tuesday.
The driver, Kittu Reddy (28), was flagged down at Punjagutta junction as the police noticed his vehicle moving in a zigzag manner on Monday night.
A breath analyser test showed that the driver had a 208 mg blood alcohol content for 100 ml of blood, while the permitted limit was 30 mg BAC, said Inspector G. Ranaveer Reddy.
