Corfu and Alexandroupoli casinos to shut down

The suspension of the operation of the casinos in Alexandroupoli and Corfu is near certain now, after the seizure of the assets of their owner Konstantinos Piladakis by the Anti-Money Laundering Authority. 

Regarding the Rio casino near Patra, which also belongs to the businessman, it has been closed since September 2023, following the rejection of the restructuring plan.

According to the seizure order, issued by the authority under the chairmanship of Haralambos Vourliotis, the entrepreneur allegedly concealed the identity of the beneficial owner of the companies Invictus and Glafka Capital, thereby misleading credit institutions and nonperforming loan management company Sunrise II NPL Finance.
