RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – The Consulate of Brazil in London was notified by the subprefecture of the neighborhood of Westminster, where it operates, that a strip club would open on the first floor and basement of the building of the diplomatic post.

The house will offer full nudity daily performances and be called “Sophisticats”. The information is in a diplomatic telegram from the Consulate sent to Brasilia on Wednesday (19/1).

In December, the Consulate was informed of the nightclub’s license request through a communiqué from the London Borough Council. In response, it sent a legal opinion rejecting the possibility.

The subprefecture will receive until this week contestations about the nightclub’s request. In addition to sending a letter, those against the new establishment should also be prepared to participate in a public hearing at the subprefecture.
