Glasgow drug death hotel porter says he was told not to evict suspected dealers

A former hotel porter at a notorious drug deaths hotel claims he tried to evict drug dealers but was stopped by bosses.

Peter Dobbins has spoken out about his former employers at the Queens Park Hotel, saying he set out to drive out two dealers from the hotel after a woman suffered a fatal overdose. He says he was ordered by a manager to “let sleeping dogs lie” because police hadn’t charged anyone, reports the Daily Record.

Dobbins believes that bosses of the hotel in Glasgow, who own three other similar properties, should have done more to stop the flow of street Valium and the rising tide of deaths.
