TEN people have died from drinking poisoned home-made booze in a northern Iranian province despite a ban on alcohol consumption, the Mehr news agency reported.

The report issued today did not specify when the deaths occurred but said the incident took place in Rasht, the capital of the province of Gilan.

Quoting local police commander Bahman Ameri Mogaddam, Mehr said at least 27 people were being treated in hospital after consuming the spirits and that two were in critical condition.

Home-made spirits are largely consumed in poorer neighbourhoods but the use of industrial chemicals in their production poses serious health risks.

Good FUCKING grief.

YOU'RE.

DOING.

IT.

WRONG.
