ESSEX POLICE have called for a review of the Bar Monico’s Liquor Licence after it was found to be in serious breach of new mandatory conditions that came into force on 6th April and 1st October 2010.
Despite the conditions being explained to Mr Derek Gray and Mr Reece Turner, the licensees, it is alleged that, during its Howl Or Scream Halloween event, alcohol was poured directly into the mouths of under-18s by staff – and a male exposed his penis to female customers.
Essex Police have said that their intelligence ‘backs up serious concerns that alcohol is being obtained by persons aged under 18 in the bar – even though the premises has a Challenge 21 Policy.’
The premises are also reported to have had several incidents and crimes take place there, since the beginning of 2010, which cause the police concern. In particular assaults associated with the premises and its customers.
