A "volatile" casino in a popular Glasgow venue has been transformed into a nightclub, after it emerged the company was fined almost £70,000 by a gambling watchdog over money laundering concerns.
The Corinthian Club on Ingram Street – owned by the Scotsman Group, formerly G1 Group – is launching a new nightclub in place of the casino on Saturday.
A lawyer for the Scotsman Group said the casino operation had been “volatile” or “challenging”. Corinthian Clubs Ltd, which owns casinos in Glasgow and Edinburgh, was warned and fined £68,517 by the Gambling Commission in August last year.
