Hundreds of illegal slot machines and other “gambling devices” are being sent to the CRUSHER.
The 320 machines — seized by cops across South Africa’s Eastern Cape province — are said to be worth £17 MILLION to the gangs running them.
Tax
“The machines would have generated around £6,500 per day,” said a spokesman for the The Eastern Cape Gambling and Betting Board.
“Assuming that they were operational since 2001, the government has already lost more than half-a-million in unpaid tax.”
The illegal slots are expected to be destroyed in the provincial capital tomorrow.
