Justice Minister Michael Keenan says AUSTRAC will investigate allegations that casino operator Crown Resorts has breached anti-money laundering laws. However, law enforcement officials have expressed concern that any case against Crown could be jeopardised after independent MP Andrew Wilkie raised the allegations in parliament. Amongst other things, he said former Crown employees had claimed that the company’s casino in Melbourne has evaded financial transaction laws and modified its poker machines to ensure lower payouts.
