Authorities worked together with the Dutch Gambling Authority (KSA) during the search.<\/p>\n<p>During the search, investigators found people participating in illegal poker games and seized poker cards, poker equipment, narcotics, and two guns. <\/p>\n<p>Investigators also took possession of electronic devices, including mobile phones and hard drives.<\/p>\n<p>Police officials stated that the inquiry into the detained individuals is still in progress and the ownership of the firearms is currently undetermined.<\/p>\n<p>The KSA provided assistance to the police during the search and is putting together a report on the case.<\/p>\n<p>The KSA stated, &#8220;Unlawful gambling creates unfair competition for businesses that possess licenses and must comply with various regulations, such as preventing customer gambling addiction.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This illicit gambling activity and the presence of drugs in a commercial zone is a violation of public order.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Moreover, illicit gambling spots are hotbeds for criminal activity, offering chances for money laundering.

However, in recent months, law enforcement has carried out similar raids on multiple locations based on reports of unlawful activity.<\/p>\n<p>Casino News reported that earlier this year, police busted two illicit poker tournaments.<\/p>\n<p>In January, four suspects were apprehended in Valkenswaard for orchestrating illegal operations.

The government intends to conduct an appraisal of all state-owned assets every seven years. This year&#8217;s primary focus is on the current condition of the NLO and Dutch casinos.<\/p>\n<p>The report states that the lottery company is &#8220;financially and structurally prepared for privatization.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sign up for the iGaming newsletter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Law enforcement officers in the Netherlands carried out a search warrant at a site in the Amsterdam Western Docklands, taking into custody 11 individuals believed to be involved in illicit betting operations.
