Gambling site operation organization discovered... Local governments notified of 665 administrative violations

The Ulsan Police Agency announced on the 16th that it arrested 10 people and booked 62 people on charges of illegal currency exchange and providing a place for gambling through a special crackdown on illegal adult PC rooms over the past two months from July to August.

The Ulsan Police Agency cracked down on and arrested 29 illegal PC rooms during this period, confiscating 215 PCs and 58 million won in cash. In addition, a decision was made to confiscate and collect 1.2 billion won in criminal proceeds.

In particular, the gambling site operation group, including the general manager, distributor, and developer, who supplied gambling sites to adult PC rooms, was caught.

The police launched a dedicated team to eradicate illegal PC rooms, detected administrative violations such as 'unregistered name change' and 'violation of facility standards' by covering the inside so that it is not visible from the outside, and notified the relevant local government of 665 cases.

To date, the local government has completed 232 administrative dispositions, including ex officio cancellation, warnings, business suspension, registration cancellation, and fines, and is in the process of disposing 194 cases.

The Ulsan Police Agency said, “Through this special crackdown, we have laid the foundation for a response that extends from crackdowns to administrative dispositions and follow-up management,” and added, “We will continue to carry out strong inspections and crackdowns in the future.”
