Novo Sabor in Station Road, Harlesden, was issued a closure order on March 15 after a police raid the previous day revealed 40 phones - most of which are believed to be stolen - hidden in an oven.
I am pleased we were able to work together with internal and external partners to disrupt this activity, arrest offenders, as well as using powers to close the premises for three months.
There were reports of unauthorised people inside the cafe, though no date was given. Police say that when officers tried to force entry, those inside fled to a rooftop.
This cafe was attracting anti-social behaviour and criminality to Harlesden town centre, causing misery to the local community.
