Australian casino operator Crown Resorts is in the news this week following revelations that a Chinese high roller suspected of money laundering had turned over A$855m (US $640.7m) at Crown casinos.

Chinese-Australian VIP Dan Bai Shun Jin is currently under investigation by the Australian Federal Police (AFP) and the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) after an AFP agent found vast discrepancies between Jin’s known income and his profligate gambling activity.

Jim, who had multiple real estate properties around the globe seized in 2013, claims to earn an annual salary of $300k in China but has so far produced no documents to support this claim.

This week, Jin’s wife lost a bid to convince the Victorian Supreme Court to lift a restraining order on a $2.7m home in Fremont, California based on the Court agreeing with the AFP that the home was likely purchased with laundered money.
