![]() One officer inspects the bar before gathering the dolls and placing them into a clear evidence bag. CCTV shows six officers walk into the bar and question Benice at a table. On Tuesday (4/4) Essex Police raided the pub and confiscated the dolls saying they were investigating a "hate crime". She and husband Chris, 64, who is currently abroad, have displayed their collection of 15 dolls after receiving them as gifts from customers over the years. Benice Ryley, 61, was quizzed by six officers after police received an anonymous complaint about The White Hart Inn in Grays, Essex. This is the bizarre moment police stormed a couple's pub and seized their golliwog dolls - saying the toys were a suspected "hate crime". “We are confident that Boom Battle Bar will be the new go-to place for fun seekers in Southend and we can’t wait to see them open later this year.” “It has been great to deal with the Boom Battle Bar team who have shown their passion about bringing their business into Southend and who share our view on the positive impact we envisage this letting will have on the city.
