Private-Hire Driver stripped of licence after alleged sex assault A PRIVATE hire driver in Southampton has had his licence removed after an alleged serious sex assault. Licensing chiefs revoked his licence after Ali Najafi, of Fullerton Place, Portswood, was arrested over the alleged assault on a vulnerable female passenger. Mr Najafi, 27, was suspended and later had his licence revoked when licensing officers considered the evidence and ruled he was not a “fit and proper” person. An appeal to the magistrates court was rejected by District Judge Lorraine Morgan who upheld the city council’s decision. The Crown Prosecution Service decided not to bring separate criminal charges as the complainant was a vulnerable adult. It is understood the alleged assault took place in a private hire car that was not fitted with a CCTV camera. Mr Najafi had held his licence since September 2008. He was unavailable for comment. source: http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/9192965 ... x_assault/ |

would that not be more reason to press for a criminal charge? |
