Maison Estelle, a celebrity-frequented private members' club, has temporarily shut down following an investigation into allegations of threatening behavior and potential weapon use. The Metropolitan Police requested a review of the club's alcohol license after an incident on September 19, prompting Westminster City Council to suspend the license for public safety reasons.
The club did not contest the suspension and is cooperating with authorities as they assess the situation. A full hearing regarding the license will occur within 28 days, while the club emphasizes the safety of its members and staff.
As the investigation unfolds, watch for updates on the club's license hearing and any changes to its operational policies. The outcome could set a precedent for other private venues regarding safety measures and compliance with local regulations.
