AUSTRAC claims that Star gambling venues, especially in Sydney and Queensland, were utilized for extensive money laundering activities over an extended period. This legal action comes after a protracted AUSTRAC inquiry into the casino sector, initiated by apprehensions regarding systemic weaknesses.  AUSTRAC is charging Star with neglecting to adequately evaluate the dangers of money laundering and terrorism financing, lacking sufficient supervision from its board and upper management, and failing to appropriately scrutinize high-risk patrons, some of whom had connections to organized crime. This situation underscores the crucial need for casinos to have strong mechanisms in place to prevent their enterprises from being misused by criminal elements. <\/p>\n<p>Lawbreakers are always seeking methods to manipulate the monetary framework, utilizing it to cleanse their illicit funds and inflict damage upon our society,&#8221; declared Nicole Rose, the director of AUSTRAC, Australia&#8217;s financial intelligence unit.  &#8220;Companies are frequently at the forefront, serving as the initial barrier against these unlawful deeds.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Rose proceeded to elaborate, &#8220;Our inquiry revealed some grave deficiencies.  We&#8217;re referring to inadequate oversight, shortcomings in hazard evaluation, and a lapse in executing and upholding a strong program to combat money laundering and the funding of terrorism.&#8221; She stressed, &#8220;The Star Entities neglected to adequately examine their clientele, resulting in years of extensive wrongdoing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>AUSTRAC made it clear that the choice of whether to impose a civil penalty order, and the establishment of any possible financial sanction, lies with the judicial body. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Australian transaction monitoring authority, AUSTRAC, has filed a lawsuit against Star Entertainment Group for&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":33,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.8 (Yoast SEO v22.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Star Entertainment Group Slapped with AUSTRAC Lawsuit over Money Laundering<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Yikes! \ud83d\ude32 AUSTRAC is taking Star Entertainment Group to court, alleging their casinos, especially in Sydney and Queensland, were hubs for major money laundering.
