‘Drunk’ Accrington shopkeeper has alcohol licence revoked

A shop owner has had his licence to sell alcohol revoked after police found him drunk at his store.

Lancashire Police found Kumrakulasingham Thevathas to be intoxicated and “incoherent”, when they attended his Sasda 24/7 premises in Whalley Road, Accrington on the night of 29 September.

During a hearing at Hyndburn Council this week, a police constable said he had “appeared under the influence of alcohol, unsteady on his feet, his speech was slurred, and officers could smell alcoholic intoxicants on his breath”.

“Officers then spoke to members of the public in the area who stated that Mr Thevathas is frequently under the influence and that this was normal behaviour for him.”
