A bar manager at a top London boozer has been jailed for supplying drinkers with drugs using a drinks menu.
Justyna Gorska, 34, was jailed for 28 months after being caught using the ruse to supply customers with cocaine whenever they ordered a specific drink from the menu.
Gorska, 34, of Vauxhall, south London, admitted supplying cocaine and was sentenced at the Old Bailey on Thursday.
The court heard how, between June 20 and August 16, Gorska exploited her position as assistant general manager of Dion Bar in Paternoster House, near St Paul’s Churchyard, in central London, to supply customers with cocaine on six separate occasions.
Detective Constable Brendan Kennedy from the City of London Police said: “We know the vast majority of licensed premises within the Square Mile are owned and operated by fully law-abiding staff and management who have close relationships with our City of London Police licensing team.
“Gorska however clearly believed that the rules did not apply to her, and her sentence is proof that our dedicated Major Crime Team will identify any such offenders and we will use a range of tactics to stop them and bring them to justice.
“The sale and supply of illegal drugs will not be tolerated anywhere within the City, including within pubs and bars, and the City of London Police will seek to prosecute anybody involved in this criminality.”
During one night Gorska supplied two wraps of cocaine to buyers, charging them $66 per wrap, as she served them drinks.
She explained that she would bring them a menu and they were instructed to place their money inside the menu.
She then removed the menu and returned with the wraps, which were later found to be cocaine.
The same ‘menu’ tactic was employed by Gorska again on five more occasions throughout the summer.
When Gorska was arrested officers found her to have a single wrap of cocaine concealed in her bra which she voluntarily handed over.
She admitted the offences and acknowledged that what she had done was wrong — but denied being a drug dealer, stating only that the drugs were supplied to her by a friend.
