Casino Canberra is rumoured to be changing hands following a request to take it off the Australian Securities Exchange.
Aquis Entertainment Limited, which owns the casino, has requested trading be halted until July 4 with more information expected in the coming days.
It comes after the Hong Kong-based owners of the casino announced in May a plan to sell the business for $52 million to Sydney pubs and hotels company Oscars Group.
Aquis said Oscars Group would gain all of the shares in the casino's holding company for $52 million on a debt and cash free basis.
Oscars Group owns hotels in Sydney, Newcastle, Wollongong and Brisbane, along with pubs across Sydney. The group was founded in 1986.
More to come.
