So many illegal establishments, it's a wonder how they operate under the watchful eye of the ever present boys in brown

Note to self. Pay your bills on time and in full. 

All this fuss over forgetting to forward one brown envelope!

Business as usual, more Kazakhstani prostitutes are expected to arrive!

You miss the point. This one isn't being allowed to operate after being raided by those boys in brown. Same as all those other 'many' establishments we read of that they raid and close down. That's how we hear about them, by the police closing them. If they didn't, we'd hear nothing.

They reopen it, usually with a new name and with 'new owners'. We all know that. 

Were they doing drugs in there?
