Libya is a conservative country, where spirits are not allowed to be made, imported or sold in the market, yet some people make beverages in their houses or small clandestine shops and sell it to others.
In March 2013, over 70 people died out of 1000 registered alcohol poisoning cases in that year across Libyan hospitals.
