POLICE SEIZE 27 ILLEGAL GAMING MACHINES IN BELFAST RAIDS

Gaming machines seizedDETECTIVES have seized 27 gaming machines and £2,000 cash have been seized in police raids on 10 properties.

Seven people were handed police cautions as a result of the searches and three files are being prepared by prosecutors.

PSNI Sergeant Michael Barton said: “Members of the community raised very valid concerns around what they believed to be illegal gaming machines operating in a number of business premises.

“It is an offence to supply gaming machines without a certificate and supplying gaming machines to prohibited premises is also against the law.

“This particular police investigation is ongoing and further premises searches may take place in the coming weeks.

“Police will also be conducting ongoing checks of business premises across Belfast.”
