Cricketer Virat Kohli-owned One 8 Commune pub and restaurant in Bengaluru has run into trouble again, after the Cubbon Park Police registered a suo-moto case for Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act (COTPA) violations. The pub has been booked under Sections 4 and 21 of COTPA for not having a designated zone within the restaurant for smoking.

Not the first violation by Virat Kohli's restaurant

One 8 Commune has faced actions in the past as well. An FIR was registered in June last year, for operating beyond the stipulated time.

The pub was found to be open until 1.30 am, beyond the permitted closing time of 1 am, the FIR alleged. The police action was based on complaints about loud music being played in the area late at night
