Crown Casino linked to Asian gangs

Casino and hotel operator Crown Resorts reportedly joined forces with Chinese gang-backed tour operators to attract China's rich and powerful. The explosive claims are revealed in an investigation by The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald and 60 Minutes. It may also have exploited weaknesses in visa processes, to fly high rollers into Australia, without proper checking procedures. The Asian crime syndicate known as ‘The Company’ allegedly laundered money using Crown linked bank accounts. It's claimed Crown also paid the syndicate to generate turnover in some casinos. Crown is part-owned by one of Australia's richest men James Packer.
