Bahamas judge rules gambling shops can stay open
Feb 01, 2013
NASSAU, Bahamas - A judge in The Bahamas says that underground gambling businesses on the islands can remain open pending the outcome of a legal battle. Wednesday's injunction came two days after voters rejected a referendum to legalise underground gambling operations known as "web shops", where Bahamians bet on numbers in televised US lotteries. Lawyer Wayne Munroe says he and other attorneys representing the gambling houses are challenging the constitutionality of the country's Lotteries and Gaming Act.
