The licence review of an illegal electronic cigarette store in Boston, Lincolnshire, UK has been delayed due to a court delay.
The Tatry Store on West Street is set to undergo a license inspection on Monday, according to Google Street View.
During a court hearing in July, shop owner Bryar Ismael was ordered to shut down Tatry Store on West Street for three months. His license review will take place next Monday.
During March to May, a series of surprise inspections were conducted in Boston town, Lincolnshire, uncovering Bryar Ismael's illegal sale of cigarettes, resulting in a fine of £826 being levied against him.
However, a spokesperson for the city council later confirmed that the hearing did not take place as the council was still awaiting notification from the court.
They said the hearing was cancelled because the court did not contact us regarding their decision.
The hearing is only temporary, and once we make a decision, we will have 10 days to hold another hearing.
The court is being held accountable for this.
A surprise inspection of trade standards led to the seizure of a bag containing illegal cigarettes, tobacco, and electronic cigarettes.
The staff had to dismantle an entire false wall and a concealed mechanism to find the hiding place of this bag.
Goods discovered hidden behind a false wall by Lincolnshire staff. The discovery was made at a hearing in July where Bryar Ismael's defense told the court that the goods had been left by the previous tenant and that he had only purchased the store in March and did not believe the goods were illegal.
However, prosecutor Andrew Goldsborough believes that Bryar Ismael is engaged in or may be engaged in criminal activity without a lockdown order.
The review by the council will be conducted behind closed doors as it is required under the exemption report specified in the Local Government Act.
This means that the report will include information about any actions that have been taken or will be taken related to preventing, investigating, or prosecuting crimes.
