Nightclub Owner's Son Charged With His Murder

Written By Unknown on Minggu, 14 Desember 2014 | 23.39

The son of a Mayfair nightclub owner has been charged with his father's murder after he was found stabbed in London's West End.

The body of David West, 70, who ran the HeyJo club, was discovered at a residential address - thought to be his home - in Ormond Yard, behind Jermyn Street, near Piccadilly, on Friday evening.

A post-mortem examination revealed the cause of death as a single stab wound.

His son, also called David West, 44, is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Monday.

Mr West Senior, who started out selling flowers and groceries from a Romford market stall, made his fortune selling cheap alcohol and cigarettes first from a double-decker bus in Calais, and then a warehouse called Eastenders.

The successful entrepreneur and self-syled lord also owned the Abracadabra restaurant in Jermyn Street, which specialises in Russian cuisine, and ran a "penthouse-style" guest house.

He is said to have bought the title of "Lord of the Manor of Hollesley" on eBay.

In 2007, Mr West hired Cherie Blair, the barrister and wife of former prime minister Tony Blair, to challenge the smoking ban.

Friends have paid tribute to him on Facebook.

Mickey Helliet said he was "absolutely gutted" at the death of his "longstanding friend".

He said: "Life is precious and can be snatched away at any moment. I normally go to see Dave and have a couple of drinks with him in one of his clubs at Christmas.

"I loved going to his clubs. Really going to miss him, a real character. RIP."

Jelena Gauthier said she was "in utter disbelief".

She wrote: "RIP David West you were always such a gracious host, flamboyant man and a playful soul you will be missed by many."
