LITTLE SHOP OF HOOKERS Boss in plea for ‘sex and drugs romp’
A CORNER shop boss racked up lines of “cocaine” on his fridge freezer and begged a hooker to come to the store for a drug-fuelled romp.
Jaspreet Dulai put eight lines of a suspicious-looking white powder on the unit at Dulai’s News and Booze in Durham during opening hours.
The Daily Star Sunday can reveal that Dulai then texted an escort while the shop was open and invited her to the convenience store for drugs and sex.
He brazenly offered her £100 and shockingly boasted he didn’t care if any children or customers came into the store.
One shocked punter who witnessed the bizarre behaviour said: “He racked up a load of lines on top of the freezer and was offering it to people.
“It was the middle of the day and customers were coming in and out of the ISOBEL DICKINSON Chief Reporter shop. But he didn’t care at all and just kept saying he wasn’t bothered. It was incredibly arrogant and dangerous behaviour.
“To have drugs out like that in a shop with children around is outrageous.
“I dread to think what could have happened if something had been left out. Someone could have got hold of it.”
The corner shop is open every day from 6.30am to 10pm.
But Jaspreet – known as Jazzy to his customers – was obviously looking to spice up a quiet day at work when he texted the escort just after 4pm on a Sunday.
He said: “Cum to mine. Shop. Cum now. U comeing? I got drugs. Line ready for you.” He then sent a string of messages begging her to visit his store – and said he would pay her for sex.
After she asked: “Are you going to pay me to escort?” to which he replied “Yes, how much?” When she told him £100 an hour he said: “Yeah cum now.”
She asked: “What if kids come in the shop again” to which he replied, “So f***.”
The store was once previously praised by police for refusing to sell booze to under-age teens.
When confronted by the Daily Star Sunday about the drug and escort allegations Jaspreet shook his head and said: “I don’t think there’s been any prostitutes in here and I never took cocaine as well.”
When asked if he had placed lines of cocaine on a frozen food cabinet in the shop, owned by his father, he said: “I’m not in that business.”
