A group of 16 persons, including six women, were arrested on Sunday night for allegedly partying and consuming liquor in a public place at Talegaon-Shivar near Igatpuri in Nashik district.

According to officials from Igatpuri police station, the incident took place last night in the open area of a local hotel.
