Chorley smoke rebel release 'imminent'
Smoke ban rebel Nick Hogan is set to be freed from prison 'imminently' after campaigners raised funds for his release.
The 43-year-old publican, whose family runs the Swan With Two Necks in Hollinshead Street, was sentenced to six months for non-payment of fines on February 26.
It relates to penalties he received for flouting the 2007 smoking ban at one of his previous pubs in Bolton.
Now, online support group has raised more than 9,000 to secure Hogan's release less than two weeks after the conviction.
Blogger Old Holborn set up an account so that people could donate money online.
He said preparations are now underway to get the publican released sometime on Wednesday, March 10.
