Groucho Club in Soho closed after crime reports and license breach
The Groucho Club in Soho has been closed following reports of serious crime and a breach of its operating license. The Metropolitan Police applied to Westminster City Council for the suspension, which will last up to 28 days. A licensing hearing determined that the club failed to uphold conditions aimed at preventing crime. The decision comes amid an ongoing police investigation into the reported incident. The closure has surprised many in the entertainment industry, as the club has been a popular venue for high-profile members since its opening in 1985. The Groucho Club has not commented on the situation.
