Security Industry Authority | The SIA has prosecuted Abdoulie Maner after he was discovered to be working as a door supervisor at a venue in Cardiff while his SIA licence was suspended.
At Cardiff Magistrates’ Court, Mr. Maner pleaded guilty to an offence under Section 3 of the Private Security Industry Act 2001 (PSIA) for working as a door supervisor without a valid SIA licence. At the same time, he also pleaded guilty to an offence under Section 9 of the PSIA for breaching his licence conditions by failing to return his suspended SIA licence to the SIA.
Mr. Maner was ordered to pay a fine of £80 for each offence, a victim surcharge of £64 and prosecution costs of £150, totalling £374.
In April 2025, Mr. Maner had his door supervisor licence suspended and, as per the conditions of the licence, was asked to return it by the SIA. He failed to comply with this request.
He was then found to have been using the suspended unreturned licence to work as a door supervisor at a venue in Cardiff in November 2025, resulting in the SIA bringing this prosecution.
