Several casino executives are being investigated by the Commercial Affairs Department (CAD) for allegedly reimbursing casino levies to patrons.

This is in addition to a probe by the Casino Regulatory Authority (CRA) into the incidents at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) which allegedly took place last year, reported The Straits Times.

RWS had allegedly given gifts to patrons who renewed their $2,000 annual entry levies. The gifts were intended to entice casino patrons to continue gambling at RWS.

According to an earlier story by another Singapore newspaper, hundreds of patrons had their casino entry levies reimbursed. Several senior executives were suspended by RWS because of this probe.

Singaporeans and permanent residents pay $100 a day for access to either of the two casinos here, or $2,000 for unlimited access in a year.

If found in breach, RWS could be disciplined in one or more of the following ways:

- Have its casino licence cancelled or suspended
- Be given a financial penalty of up to $1 million
- Be issued a letter of censure
- Have the terms of its licence changed

RWS was penalised before for reimbursing casino entry levies for a launch event in July 2010.
