Moment police ‘scale walls and block off toilets’ at celebrity-loved Indian restaurant after ‘single tip-off over immigration’

In an Indian restaurant loved by celebrities in Surrey, the immigrant raid, which was said to have climbed the walls and prevented access to toilets, was likened to Nazi Germany.

The police in 11 uniforms, wearing a knife vest, besieged the Mandira’s Kitchen in Surrey Hills before separating the staff after a ‘clue’ and questioning them.

There was no crime in a hour -long visit in front of the customers and no arrest was experienced.

Mandira Sakar, the owner of the company, criticized the thoughtless approach by asking an employee to verify the details of his 11 -year -old child.

They dived there and said, ‘Show your papers’. “This looks like Nazi Germany,” he said to the entrepreneur Daily Mail.

Mandira’s restaurant in Surrey Hills had previously received great praise from famous chefs Nigella Lawson and Jamie Oliver.

He also took part in the Channel 4 series Aldi’s Next Big Thing in 2022.

The reaction of Surrey police and immigration officers was stigmatized by Godaling deputy and Ash Sir Jeremy Hunt as ‘hard’.

In CCTV images, civil servants are bent under wooden bars, and others also surrounded the building.

Sir Jeremy described this as a ‘sad experience’ for the staff, and since then, Surrey Police Chief Tim de Meyer.

In CCTV images, it can be seen that the officers walk along the way to the restaurant in Silent Pool in Albury.

Then they were divided into teams; Three of them leaned under the fence of wooden bars, while others surrounded the building.

Mandira, which opened the business in 2019, did not want to speculation about who provided the ‘notice’, instead directed her anger to the police and the immigration office officers.

‘They could check all this’ [before they came]And the truth is that nobody wanted anything from us. ‘

The raid was held on September 17 in accordance with Article 179 of the 2003 Licensing Law. This gives immigration officers the authority to enter licensed buildings to determine whether any crime has been committed within the scope of the Migration Law regarding licensable activities.

However, during the raid, the Mandira in Tanzania accused the operation of being a ‘fishing trip’.

Mother said: ‘So this was a completely interventionist questioning. And after that, they couldn’t find anything, and they came to the café, we had customers, they clogged the toilets.

‘I think what’s about me is that it’s quite insignificant, but I’m very angry with it, we have a free parking place for our customers.

‘This is a paid parking, you pay in the parking lot, and not a very large amount, but if you spend some money with us, but if you spend some money with us, then you will benefit from the free parking space.

‘And these guys had arrogance to get in and take advantage of the free parking place, which I was really angry with it.

‘So they just didn’t just go inside, they scared the eyes of the staff, they used the free parking lot and then they disappeared.’

In accordance with Article 179 of the 2003 Licensing Law, the raid was held in front of the customers’ eyes on 17 September.

Business Owner Mandira Sakar (in the picture) criticized an employee with the request of his 11 -year -old child to approve of the details about his child.

The discussions arising from the visit saw that customers and local people were gathered around the Mandira for support.

Sir Keir said that the small boat crisis, which Starmer has not been able to overcome since he took office, blur the boundaries between illegal immigrants and legal economic immigrants.

‘Almost everyone is seen as an illegal immigrant rather than people who have diversified Britain, who work here and have the right to be here.

‘When you have something like this [happen]This shakes you. ”

Mandira added: ‘This political agenda is so much and as if it is almost normalized; It is absolutely no problem to enter a job in 2025, jump there, scare the staff, ask them questions and leave them.

‘I think all this is quite scary, because in 2025 British, you almost normalize something like this, which is quite surprising.’

He praised the young and various workforce about how they have described the situation as ‘very sad’.

‘What scared me was the way it was done, and the truth is that if you run a different labor force, then this is the fact that someone can come and control you almost’.

‘Because the color of your wand is brown.’

He added: ‘I think it is a shame for people who have never thought of the race like me and have never thought about the color of someone’s skin. I think the nation’s texture is starting to wear out.

‘I think that what people realize, or that the nation probably needs to realize is that we are an economic immigrant.

‘We are not illegal immigrants. I came here, I started a business, I employ sixteen people, I contribute to the local economy, I settled there a lot.

‘But what is about economic immigrants is that they can go.’

The Daily Mail asked the Surrey police what the police did to determine whether the notice was real and that it would now publish an apology.

The Police Organization did not answer any questions of this newspaper and instead: ‘Surrey Police’s unit of modern slavery and organized immigration crimes and immigration sanctions and immigration and exploitation crimes are completed under the leadership of intelligence and commercial buildings.

In accordance with Article 179 of the ‘2003 Licensing Law, a joint visit was made in a workplace in Shere Lane at 14.30 on Wednesday, September 17 at 14.30 to complete a routine undergraduate control. No crime was detected. ‘
