Malaysian court quashes UK casino's debt bid
A Malaysian court in Kuala Lumpur has quashed a London casino’s bid to recover a gambling debt of more than 7 million ringgit (€1.47m) racked up by a senior politician in the country’s ruling party.
Osu Sukam, a former chief minister of the timber-rich Sabah state, chalked up the debt when the Ritz Hotel Casino in London allowed him to gamble on credit.
