HONG KONG, Nov 27 ― Wenzhou, a city in eastern China, has issued an arrest warrant for Macau junket mogul Alvin Chau, accusing him of operating gambling activities in mainland China.

An investigation found that Chau formed a junket agent network in the mainland to help citizens engage in offshore as well as cross-border gambling activities, the Wenzhou City Public Security Bureau said yesterday. GGRAsia, a news outlet on the Asia casino industry, quoted a Suncity spokesperson as saying by email early today that the company had contacted Chau and had not received a response.

The Wenzhou authority said that as of July 2020, the “crime syndicate” led by Chau had 199 shareholder-level agents, more than 12,000 gambling agents and over 80,000 punter members.
