Preston takeaway where staff worked 12 hours for £10 for 'exploitative' boss, report claims
A Preston takeaway which was ordered to stop late night trading over crime concerns was previously fined £10,000 for exploiting staff through modern slavery, according to a Home Office report.
Preston City Council must now decide on what long-term action to take to deal with the issues at the shop. A meeting due to be held on Monday was adjourned to allow Mr Almashhadani's representative to attend in person. However, documents submitted to the sub-committee have been published and detail the allegations placed against the business and its owner.
On that occasion, the licence holder was said to be "highly combative and refused to engage" and matters escalated when they returned six weeks later. According to a report by PC Stephen Connolly, the licensing officer for Lancashire Constabulary: "Lancashire Constabulary received a report from a High Court Enforcement Agent who had attended the premises.
After this incident, police requested a closure order which was granted by magistrates following the Christmas and New Year break. When the licensing review was launched, the Home Office offered its own report which detailed their dealing with the business and its owner. "A licence owner should comply with responsible authorities and the terms and conditions of the licence. In this case, the disruption of Rugda Almashhadani, the director and manager, caused goes against the role as a license holder, obstructing officers whilst conducting their duties as per the Licensing Act 2003. i.e. It is an offence to intentionally obstruct the entry of an authorised person to investigate unauthorised use of premises for licensable activity.
