Eastern Cape Gambling Board destroys confiscated illegal gambling machines
The Eastern Cape Gambling Board said it destroyed confiscated illegal gambling machines seized in locations including Gqeberha and the former Transkei region. The board said the machines could not be registered, tested or certified by an approved South African laboratory and warned property owners who host illegal gambling that they may face legal consequences.
The action signals enforcement risks for operators and property owners involved in unlicensed gambling in the Eastern Cape.
