Roulette Scam at Crown Casino
April 9th, 2009
Rapid Roulette is an evolutionary form of the table roulette. The only difference between the Rapid Roulette and the parent form of the game is that the players do not interact with one another and instead wager with the help of a touch screen at their personal terminals.
As is common with other form of gambling corruption has also entered the game of Rapid Roulette also. Deasy Widjaja, 28 of Melbourne coaxed and bribed a casino employee at Crown Casino to alter the winning number so that she could pocket booty of $66,675. The fraudster was in action between 2003 and 2004.
Deasy Widjaja pleaded not guilty on all the eight charges. Deasy Widjaja lawyer contented that since the co offender, who was an employee of crown casino was absconding and reportedly hiding at a remote location in New Zealand; his client should be charged on lesser counts instead for deception and receiving a secret commission.
