In recent months, junket operations have been under fire as controversy swells surrounding their practices and alleged links between some junket businesses and illegal activity. In November trading in junket operator SunCity’s shares was suspended following the arrest of company chairman Alvin Chau.
He was arrested along with ten others under suspicion of facilitating an illegal syndicate that allegedly recruited Chinese residents to gamble illegally in Macau. The money was then laundered through junket accounts.
The group faces charges of money laundering, criminal syndicate involvement and illegal gambling.
Chau resigned days after his arrest.
