Details Emerge in Sydney Casino’s Rigged Roulette Plot

The crisis at a top casino in Australia is growing after police in Sydney charged an employee with planning to rig games.

A pair of local men have been charged with the plot to rig roulette games at the Star casino.

One of the men, a 23-year-old, worked at the Sydney casino, while his 22-year-old accomplice helped to put the plan in action.

It is alleged that the pair contrived to move roulette bets at the Star casino in Sydney after the result of the wheel spin had already been confirmed.

Organised crime squad detectives looking into fraudulent activity at casinos across New South Wales estimate that the pair stole $25,000 as a result of the scheme.

They will appear in court in November having been charged with facilitating conduct that corrupted the betting outcome of the event.

How the Investigation Took Shape

News that an employee at Sydney’s Star casino deepens the site’s woes with the future of the venue thrust further into doubt.

Although the Star Sydney is said to have alerted local police over the roulette rigging scandal, trust in the casino is set to take a hit as a result.

Detectives from the State Crime Command’s Organised Crime Squad’s Casino and Racing Unit were working on Strike Force Antree and more charges could follow after an appeal.

“Investigations under Strike Force Antree continue. Anyone with information that may assist investigators is urged to contact Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or https://nsw.crimestoppers.com.au. Information is treated in strict confidence. The public is reminded not to report information via NSW Police social media pages.”Police Statement

Star’s Future Is Doubtful

The Star’s Sydney licence was previously suspended by the New South Wales casino regulator due to anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism failings.

An inquiry then found Star Entertainment, which runs the Sydney casino along with similar sites in Brisbane and Gold Coast, unsuitable to regain the casino licence.

Further breaches were outlined by a report produced by the New South Wales Independent Casino Commission (NICC).

New breaches relate to “a cash fraud against Star, a failure to run source of wealth checks on hundreds of members flagged as high risk, and fraudulent guest welfare entries that put already vulnerable customers at higher risk of harm,” the NICC said in a statement

For its part, Star issued a statement that said it is currently “considering the matters raised in the notice” and will respond to the regulator later in the month.

However, the news that a Star employee has been charged with rigging roulette games deepens the problems at the popular casino.
