Berlin authorities seize more than 70 suspected illegal gambling machines
Berlin authorities seized more than 70 suspected illegal gambling machines during a coordinated operation, reportedly. Berlin Justice Senator Felor Badenberg said tackling organised crime and illegal gambling was a high priority, while experts cited divided responsibilities among agencies as an obstacle to investigations. The report said the Berlin state criminal police agency recovered about €500,000 in cash from machines annually.
The seizure highlights enforcement activity, while divided agency responsibilities may impede investigations into illegal gambling.
