Mobile Online Casinos a New Focus

The Tokyo police announced earlier this year plans to seriously crack down on the levels of illegal mobile and online casino gambling taking place in the country. Over the past several months the Japanese officials have taken down several high profile betting and gambling rings and this week the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department claim that they have taken down one of the largest mobile betting rings in the country.

The latest raid arrested an online casino gambling site operator who was running a mobile platform that brought in more than 130 million yen according to the Japanese police. As a part of the raids the police announced that the head of the gambling ring, Tomoyuki Miyamoto was arrested along with two other Japanese suspects who are allegedly involved in the payment processing side of the illegal gambling ring. Japan, like China, has begun to seriously come down on illegal online casinos that are defying national regulations and bans by offering this form of gambling.

A key problem facing the Japanese police right now is whether or not the customers of this illegal online casino gambling ring should also face arrest and sentences for their participation in the illegal activity. Nine customers have been implicated in the situation but there has been no word yet on potential action that may come from the police officials. More crackdowns on other suspected gambling rings are anticipated throughout the rest of the year as the Japanese police departments investigate and track the illegal gambling activity.
