The Enforcement Directorate has seized cash and crypto.
India.- The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has carried out raids on a Goa-based casino group and linked companies, seizing INR22m (US$247,000) in cash along with US$14,000 and other foreign currencies. It has also frozen cryptocurrencies valued at nearly INR9m (US$101,000).
The raids took place in Goa, Delhi-NCR, Mumbai and Rajkot, targeting Big Daddy Casino and its parent firms Golden Globe Hotels and Worldwide Resorts. Investigators allege that the casino exchanged poker chips for foreign currency and paid out winnings in the same manner, violating foreign exchange rules.
According to the ED, staff also promoted unlicensed gambling websites. Officials say the platforms acted as online extensions of the casino business and that cryptocurrency wallets and informal money transfer systems were used to move funds abroad, including to Dubai. Several mule accounts were identified as channels for depositing and withdrawing gambling winnings.
Authorities said the operation is one of the most significant actions in Goa’s casino sector in recent years. The investigation remains ongoing, with the ED examining links to both domestic and overseas operators.
