Mainland man arrested for illegal 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 at the baccarat gaming tables in a casino in the NAPE district. After investigation, an involved mainland man was intercepted in the said casino in the wee hours of 30th July 2026 and was brought back to the Judiciary Police for follow-up.
Investigation revealed that in the wee hours of the same day, the involved mainland man was wearing a modified outfit in the course of gambling at the said casino and filmed the situation of the gaming table with the mobile phone concealed in the inner pocket of the outfit, while wearing a wireless earphone to talk with someone and place bets per the instruction of patrons. He was found to have placed bets of around HKD 170,000 in total during the illicit live streaming and gained a profit of no less than HKD 1,600.
Personnel of the Gaming-related Crimes Division of the Judiciary Police found a modified outfit, two mobile phones, a wireless earphone, casino chips of HKD 98,000, HKD 10,000 in cash and a membership card on the involved man.
Based on investigative findings, the Judiciary Police 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.
