Kenya: Detectives Probe Lottery Licensing
Nairobi — The lotteries that have been promising millions in prize money in SMS competitions are being investigated.
Detectives from the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission have launched a probe into the activities of the Betting Control and Licensing Board following complaints over the lotteries and casinos.
The detectives, who have been visiting the board's Charity Sweepstake House offices on Mama Ngina Street in Nairobi since last week, have carted away stacks of documents for forensic auditing and interrogated several officials over suspected unprocedural licensing of casinos and lotteries.
The detectives have also requested minutes of all board meetings since 2008 to verify if the licenses awarded to various casinos and lottery games were part of the agenda at these meetings.
