A city centre nightclub where a 14-year-old boy is alleged to have raped a woman just days after another serious attack was reported has been shut down.
Bloom, in Manchester’s Gay Village, has had its licence revoked after a town hall committee heard ‘shocking’ evidence from GMP including details of 38 violent or sexual offences at the venue this year.
The club’s licence was suspended at the beginning of the month, when police ordered a summary review following the alleged rape in the venue’s toilets on June 29.
