The parliament in Australia is considering investigating Crown Resorts Ltd following reports of their casino operation being used by Asian criminal gangs to launder money.
The reports allege that there are links between the casinos attracting high-rolling gamblers from China and junket operators with links to drug trafficker gangs in Asia, two ministers in Australia tried to speed up the immigration clearance for high rollers at Crown properties who came from overseas. The main sources of these allegations have been kept anonymous, but they have been identified as law enforcement officials.
Chinese officials have taken action against Crown Resorts Ltd before on the grounds of illegal promotion of gambling. This is allegedly taking place mainly in the company’s Melbourne casinos.
This saw 19 former and current employees convicted of such charges in 2017. At the time, Crown Resorts denied being aware of their staff being exposed to potential convictions in the country.
Finally, there was a 3.2% drop in the share price of Crown Resorts.
