A North Tyneside corner shop has been ordered to close for three months after the tenants were caught selling illicit cigarettes.
The tenants of the Madina Mini Market, High Street East, Wallsend, were also found selling hand rolling tobacco products on three separate occasions.
On June 2, the council was granted a three-month closure order by North Tyneside Magistrates’ Court requiring the premises to close with immediate effect.
