Oak Inn appeal decision to revoke their licence
The Oak Inn have appealed against their licence being revoked.
It was revoked last month (November) after West Midlands Police (WMP) demanded the late night establishment be reviewed.
Cops called for intervention from the council after they revealed officers were called to the pub 25 times in a matter of months, culminating in an alleged rape on the premises in September.
And today, Coventry City Council have announced an appeal has been filed on behalf of the pub in the hope the decision will be reconsidered.
A council spokesperson said: “We can confirm that an appeal has been filed on behalf of The Oak Inn at Coventry Magistrates Court.
“The Court will set a date for the appeal to be heard in the coming weeks.”
