Ulysses Flevotomos allowed back at Dollhouse after ban for alleged sex and cocaine
A former Kings Cross strip club owner will be allowed to return to his venue after he was banned for allegedly allowing sex and cocaine.
A former Kings Cross strip club boss who was banned from his own venue for allegedly allowing sex acts and cocaine use will be allowed back in the venue as a patron.
Owner of Dollhouse Strip Club Ulysses Flevotomos was banned from ever holding a liquor license, banned from his venue and fined $10,000 in March for allegedly allowing frequent cocaine use and sex between strippers and patrons.
NSW independent Liquor and Gaming Authority (ILGR) called Mr Flevotomos’ offending one of the worst cases of noncompliance they had ever dealt with.
However, a decision handed down by the New South Wales Civil and Administrative Tribunal found that the former strip club owner would be permitted to attend the venue as a patron until a final decision is made on August 2.
The decision was based on an appeal made by Mr Flevotomos’ legal team that stated his absence, even on a social level, could sink the business given he has been the company’s director since 1982.
Evidence submitted by the venue’s biggest spender, mattress mogul George Koutalas, said he would not feel comfortable spending his tens of thousands in the venue each year if Mr Flevotomos was not there in some capacity.
ILGR noted it was concerned that Mr Flevotomos being allowed back on the premises would impact business operations since his 84-year-old mother is the sole shareholder.
An investigation into the venue in 2017 found CCTV footage of naked or near naked strippers and patrons engaging in sexual activity including oral sex, fondling and kissing and numerous instances of strippers and patrons snorting cocaine.
Two undercover officers were also offered sex by the strippers, who told them: “If you tip extra you can do anything, touch me anywhere, whatever you want baby”.
The decision to ban Mr Flevotomos was passed down on March 25, which was then appealed.
He did not appeal his liquor license life ban or the $10,000 fine.
The Daily Telegraph contacted Mr Flevotomos who said he hoped to visit the venue soon but could not comment any further for legal reasons.
