US Treasury sanctions two Tamaulipas casinos; Mexican authorities pursue suspensions
The US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control designated Casino Centenario, Diamante Casino and their operator, CAMSA, blocking their assets and transactions with US persons. Mexico’s Financial Intelligence Unit said it found financial irregularities, filed criminal complaints with the Attorney General’s Office and notified the gaming authority to pursue suspensions; the source describes the alleged offences as money laundering and tax evasion.
The actions could halt casino operations and restrict the named parties’ access to US transactions.
