A problem gambler who asked to be banned from Melbourne’s Crown casino is suing the gaming giant for almost $4.6 million he lost after staff admitted they acted irresponsibly by repeatedly luring him back to the roulette table.
Ahmed Hasna – who says he gambled at the Southbank casino almost every second day between 1993 and 2019, sometimes for 26 hours straight – filed a suit in the Federal Court on Monday alleging Crown knew, or should have known, he had a gambling addiction.
