A PUB was back selling alcohol just 24 hours after its licence was revoked.
The Huntsmans Tavern in Shrub End Road, Colchester, was banned from selling booze after police and Colchester Council licensing officials found it had been without a designated premises supervisor (DPS) since November 2007. It was ordered to only serve soft drinks at noon on Thursday, but by Friday lunchtime pints of beer were being pulled again.
A Colchester Council spokesman confirmed that the pub's alcohol licence had been returned.
