VICTORMACE will become famous soon enough
Bars or clubs are under absolutely no obligation to show any footage caught on camera to anybody even the police unless the police have a warrant to view the footage. Remember CCTV works two ways and only to the bars advantage, the bar can use it to prosecute violent offenders damaging their business and reputation which is a valid point or when something happens like the theft of a coat or handbag and I dont mean in any way to belittle anyones loses but its not a huge crime by any means the bar will simply refuse to allow the footage to be seen or will erase the said footage as this minor crime will draw too much police attention to the bar.In all the years I've looked after bars and clubs I've never heard of anyone sueing a bar for loss handbag, coat or mobile phone. Sorry but thats the way it is.
