Mobile Gambling

Eight people have landed in trouble within the first three days of the Resorts World Sentosa casino opening. A 49-year-old Indonesian man, Paulus Djohar was jailed for four weeks after he lost S00 at the Resorts World Sentosa casino and was later caught stealing a mobile phone at Changi Airport. Two Mongolians were arrested on Monday at the casino entrance at Resorts World Sentosa for cheating by impersonation. The pair, aged 45 and 18, are released on police bail and investigations are ongoing. The younger Mongolian, who is studying in a private school here, had allegedly used the passport of the 45-year-old’s son to enter the casino as he is underage. Five other people were caught trying to enter the casino without paying the S0 levy imposed on Singaporean citizens and permanent residents to discourage lower income people from gambling. They face a fine of up to S00.
