Islington Council is attempting to prosecute the operators of a gay sex cinema. Fantasy Video at 279 City Road, Finsbury, had its licence revoked last October following an undercover investigation by a council snitch who reported sexual activity
taking place. Neighbours also complained of hearing sexual films through the walls. But, according to neighbours, the business is still operating. Cllr Paul Convery, executive member for censorship, said a prosecution case was underway and two
other types of enforcement have also started in a bid to shut the premises down once and for all. He said: The prosecution is being prepared. It's a complex case which both the operator of the premises and the
freeholder are not co-operating with. We are also preparing an injunction and taking action under the Crime and Anti-Social Behaviour Act. We are appealing to neighbours and the public to come forward which will strengthen the case.
He said he expected the prosecution to take about two months.
