內地漢涉不法經營線上博彩被捕
本局早前接獲線報，指有人在路氹城區一娛樂場進行俗稱“電投”的不法經營線上幸運博彩活動。經調查後，於2026年7月22日晚上在該娛樂場截獲涉案內地男子，並將其帶返本局調查。
調查顯示，涉案內地男子於同日晚上，將一部流動電話藏於經改裝的衣服內，利用衣服上的穿孔對博彩過程進行拍攝，同時透過另一部連接藍牙耳機的流動電話，通知一名客人觀看直播賭博。因娛樂場內環境嘈雜，該男子未能清晰聽取指示進行投注，遂停止直播，隨即被本局人員截查。
經博彩罪案調查處人員調查，涉案男子為獲取贏錢後的打賞，自行墊資5萬港元作為賭本，替客人進行不法直播投注，但因未完成投注而未獲報酬。本局人員在其身上搜獲一件改裝服飾、兩部流動電話、49,500港元籌碼，以及一部藍牙接收器連耳機及電池。
本局綜合調查所得，以不法經營線上幸運博彩或線上互相博彩罪，將涉案內地男子移送檢察院偵辦。
Mainland man arrested for illicit operation of online gaming
The Judiciary Police received a tip-off earlier on, indicating that someone was engaging in the so-called “electronic betting” illegal operation of online games of fortune activities in a casino in the Cotai district. After investigation, the involved mainland man was intercepted in the said casino on the night of 22nd July 2026 and was brought back to the Judiciary Police for investigation.
Investigation revealed that the involved mainland man had concealed a mobile phone in the modified outfit on the night of that day, secretly shooting the gaming process through the pinhole on the outfit, while notifying a patron to watch the live streaming of the gambling through another mobile phone connected to Bluetooth earphone. As the environment in the casino was noisy and the man was unable to clearly hear the instructions to place bets, he stopped the live streaming and was immediately stopped and questioned by personnel of the Judiciary Police.
Investigation by personnel of the Gaming-related Crimes Division revealed that the involved man had advanced gambling funds of HKD 50,000 to conduct illegal live-streamed betting for the patron, in order to gain tips from the patron in winning games. However, he failed to gain any reward as the betting was not completed. Personnel of the Judiciary Police found a modified outfit, two mobile phones, HKD 49,500 of casino chips, and a Bluetooth receiver with earphones and battery on him.
The Judiciary Police integrated the investigative findings and transferred the involved mainland man to the Public Prosecutions Office for the offence of illegal operation of online games of fortune or online mutual gaming.
