The Groucho Club has been forced to close as police investigate whether the venue was the scene of a serious criminal offence, with the licence suspended.
Metropolitan police applied for the suspension on the grounds that the venue breached licensing conditions and was associated with a recent serious crime.
Elli Jafari, the club's chief executive, mentioned that they took the application to review their licence seriously and apologised to members for the closure.
A council spokesperson noted the suspension was agreed with the operator and highlighted that the decision was based on associations with serious crime.
