In Gosport, a 47-year-old man has been charged with breaching a partial closure order, following Magistrates granting a three-month closure of an address in Blake Court, South Street, on Wednesday 24 April.
Clint Herlihy, residing on South Street in Gosport, was arrested and charged with two counts of aiding and abetting entry to a premises in contravention of a closure order. These charges stem from alleged incidents that occurred between 28 April and 2 May.
After subsequent reports were made to the police, Herlihy was taken into custody and charged accordingly. He has been bailed and is scheduled to appear at Portsmouth Magistrates’ Court on 30 May this year.
The partial closure order, granted by Magistrates, is aimed at addressing issues and concerns related to specific premises. Such orders are issued to prevent antisocial behaviour, criminal activity, or other disturbances linked to a particular property.
Breaching a closure order is a serious offence, and individuals found guilty may face legal consequences. The enforcement of closure orders is crucial for maintaining community safety and ensuring that residents can live without fear of crime or disruption.
Authorities urge residents to report any breaches or suspicious activities related to closure orders promptly to the police. Maintaining vigilance and cooperation with law enforcement efforts can contribute to fostering safer neighbourhoods and protecting the well-being of local communities.
