SunWest International, owner and operator of GrandWest Casino and Entertainment World in Cape Town, is involved in a dispute with three punters over the payment of credits totalling more than R6.24 million from a malfunctioning slot machine at the casino (a settlement agreement has been reached with a fourth punter).
The three punters - Maganathan Padayachee, Sharnetha Harilall and Sherilee Padayachee - allegedly unlawfully withdrew R2.59 million of credits in their Sun MVG (Most Valued Guest) loyalty programme cards from an automated cash machine (ACM) at the GrandWest Casino, as well as the Sibaya Casino & Entertainment Kingdom in Durban.
This emerged in a judgment in the Western Cape High Court last week to an exception application by SunWest to a counterclaim by the punters.
Acting Judge Pearl Andrews said the matter had been settled between SunWest, a subsidiary of Sun International, and the fourth punter, Nazley Padayachee.
