TheReds Posted December 22, 2023 Report Share Posted December 22, 2023 How is he even allowed to run a shop? Sounds like HMRC and the law should/will be after him. I can only imagine how easily he wouldn't be able to spot just the 62,000 illegal vapes that his shop workers bought and sold without his knowledge.... Mr Jamal apologised for the breaches to the alcohol licence and the illegal disposable vapes found at the store each time and acknowledged he was responsible for what was being sold in the store, although he said that he had recently taken on a second store in Bedminster and was concentrating on that, claiming his staff had continued to buy the illegal vapes to be sold, even after he’d already been warned once this year. A police officer at the hearing told the councillors that he had already been given an official police caution for selling alcohol without any licence at all at that other store in nearby Bedminster. After the January concerns about underage drink sales, Trading Standards officers from Bristol City Council got involved, and visited the shop on April 12. Trading Standards officer Emma Hennessey told the hearing they found multiple issues. A search of the premises found a total of 62,761 illegal disposable vapes. Vapes can only be sold in this country if they contain enough vape liquid for 600 puffs - but Ashton Gate Mini Market was selling vapes that contained 9,000 puffs. Officers also found tobacco that had not been through UK Customs and Duty, and police present also found a mattress in a back room and a store worker there who turned out to be an illegal immigrant, the committee heard. The illegal tobacco and vapes were confiscated and Mr Jamal was warned, but a second visit in September again revealed more illegal vapes were being sold there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
