If a disbeliever drinks in the lands of the Muslims, is the hadd (fixed punishment) applied to him?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a disbeliever drinks intoxicants in the lands of the Muslims, is the hadd applied to him, even though he is a disbeliever?

Answer:
If he displays it openly, he is given a discretionary punishment and prevented from doing so. But if he does not display it and drinks in his home without showing it, we do not go to search his home.
