An off licence in Darvel, East Ayrshire has had it’s drinks license revoked after the powers that be discovered that the premises had been repossessed. Mohammad Akram was the license holder at the shop and had repeatedly failed to pay the £176 yearly cost for the right to sell alcohol.
It wasn’t until Mr Akram let it slip that he’d been repossessed that the licensing board twigged why he hadn’t been paying. Akram then confessed that the shop had been repossessed by lenders but claimed he was going to fight to get it back through the courts. But because he was no longer the legal owner of the store, the licensing board had no choice but to revoke his right to sell liquor. The End.
