"Normally, an officer on duty does not drink. But, if he wants to have a peg and he gets it, I find nothing wrong in it," according state Home Minister Tako Dabi.

"But, yes, any kind of ill behaviour will be wrong," he said during an interaction with reporters.

"Look at us, how much we drink. It gives us energy," he said.
