A casino has been fined £650,000 after a gambler killed himself after losing £25,000 in a single night on roulette and crack cocaine slot machines.
An investigation by the Gambling Commission into the death of Huseyin Yaman found that Aspers Casino had failed in its social responsibility to properly monitor the businessman during a night of heavy gambling.
The Turkish family man, 37, was found hanged at his home in Hackney, North London, after losing the five figure some in just a few hours playing one of the controversial machines and a gaming table at Aspers Casino at the Westfield Shopping Centre in Stratford, east London, in November 2018.
