London’s renowned nightclub Heaven has been shut down following a reported rape incident linked to a security guard. The Metropolitan Police requested the suspension of the club’s license, which Westminster Council approved for 28 days to ensure public safety. The alleged assault occurred on November 1, and a security staff member has been arrested and charged. A council spokesperson emphasized the venue’s cultural significance but stressed the importance of preventing serious crime. A complete licensing hearing is scheduled for December to review new evidence amidst the ongoing police investigation.
