The Prosecutor General’s Office of Wenzhou in Mainland China has approved an arrest warrant for the Suncity Group boss Alvin [Chau Cheok Wa] on alleged cross-border gambling activities
the Chinese city has probed a case concerning a cross-border gambling crime syndicate since July 2020, and has recently found Chau headed the syndicate that “causes severe damages to the social order of the country”.
authorities of Wenzhou urged Chau and his comrades in the crime syndicate, including a person named Zhang Ningning, should turn themselves in as soon as possible for “lenient punishment” as they were already suspects for the crime of “establishing casino” in the mainland, the report said.
It was estimated that the crime syndicate, comprising 199 shareholder-level representatives and more than 12,000 agents for gambling promotion in the mainland, has developed a network of over 80,000 Mainland Chinese gamblers, the report added.
