In the United Kingdom and the Gambling Commission regulator has announced that it has taken additional action against nine individuals from Caesars Entertainment UK Limited after last year fining the casino operator a record-setting £13 million ($18.1 million).
The watchdog used an official press release to detail that the London-headquartered firm, which is the local subsidiary of American casino giant Caesars Entertainment Incorporated, was hit with the stiff financial penalty in May after it was adjudged to have violated a number of rules regarding money laundering, social responsibility and customer interaction protocols.
