Italian authorities have rounded up 68 individuals to bust an illegal gambling operation that handled €4.5b in wagers. Police claim that many of the online gambling sites involved in these cases were licensed in Malta. As a response, Parliamentary Secretary Silvio Schembri said that they would soon sign an agreement with the Malta Gaming Authority detailing future cooperation against illegal gambling.
