Star Casino manager 'disappeared' after allegedly transferring $13m into his account, inquiry told

 A key figure in Star Casino's international VIP team is accused of misappropriating more than $13 million in gambling money before "disappearing" in 2020, an inquiry has heard.

The senior manager, who worked with Chinese high rollers, allegedly transferred a $13.3 million payment from a junket operator into his own account, rather than the Star's.

Another senior figure in the same VIP division, Marcus Lim, was accused of accepting kickbacks that funded his lifestyle, making corrupt payments and associating with "illegal, undesirable elements".

An investigation into Mr Lim, who was the president of international VIP sales, began in 2019 but wasn't finalised by the time he was made redundant in 2020.
