AN 84-YEAR-OLD woman was charged in court on Wednesday with six
counts of allowing three shophouses in Geylang as a common gaming
house.
Mun Yoke Keng allegedly permitted two premises at Lorong 17,
Geylang and another at Lorong 8 to be used as a common gaming house
between December last year and July this year.
A police statement said illegal jackpot machines and improvised
computers used for on-line casino gaming were found at the
units.
Her lawyer asked for the case to be adjourned for him to make
representations.
She will appear in court on Nov 12.
If convicted, Mun faces a fine of up to $50,000 and a jail term
of up to three years on each charge.
