The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation has ordered Resorts World Manila (RWM) to indefinitely stop all its gaming operations in the wake of last week’s casino rampage that left 37 people, including the gunman, dead.
PAGCOR chairman has warned during Wednesday’s congressional investigation into the RWM attack that the state regulator will slap casino operator Travellers International Hotel Group, Inc. with “punitive measures” for its failure to comply with the state regulator’s security protocol.
In a statement issued by PAGCOR on Friday, PAGCOR has ordered RWM to “must cease and desist all gaming operations while investigation on its liability regarding the June 2 incident is on-going.”
PAGCOR warned that RWM will face additional sanctions if it will not comply with the state regulator’s order.
