The strip club where the British dancer died had a ‘culture of staff abuse on holidays’ (photos)

But the owner of the club where the “exotic dancer” lost his life defended the practices of his business in order to maintain the license of alcoholic beverages.

In the investigation of the Australian Casino and Gambling Control Commission it was said that the environment had a culture of consumption of beverages and drugs by the staff on holidays.

“We had no rules forbidding staff or executives from coming to the club on their holidays,” said owner Salvatore Aparo, adding that he allowed his subordinates to manage the business while he took care of other commitments.

But the British passenger Tierney, was found in the private room 30 hours after she lost consciousness until she was picked up by ambulance staff.

The room where she lost her life was the only one not monitored by security cameras and police said the death scene had been cleared before they arrived.

Aparo told the commission that he met all the conditions for holding his liquor license and that he was disconnected from running the bar as he allowed others to manage it.

He said he only visited the club a few times a week as he also ran a construction business, and the issue of the dancer’s death had damaged his reputation.

He said he accepted some of the responsibility for the staff’s free leisure policies, but no more writes the local daily Herald Sun..

When asked about the room where Miss Tierney was found dead, Aparo said it was his private room and that at the time it was managed by the club’s management.

He added that the club is now better managed after the installation of new systems.

In an investigation conducted in Stockport, Britain in 2018 on the case, the relatives of Ms. Tierney accused that those present at the club when she died were shown to be “inhuman”.
