Eleven individuals, including the former leader of GVC's successor Entain, are facing charges as part of a dive into financial misconduct.
In a significant development, the UK Crown Prosecution Service has announced charges against 11 individuals, including former GVC Chairman Lee Feldman, for conspiracy to defraud and conspiracy to bribe between 2011 and 2018. The charges are related to activities within the iGaming industry and sports betting.
The investigation by HM Revenue and Customs in the UK is linked to the company now known as Entain, which was under scrutiny for providing gambling services in Turkey during the same period. Kenny Alexander, former CEO of GVC Holdings, is among those charged, along with Richard Cooper, Robert Dowling, Raymond Smart, Richard Raubitschek-Smith, and James Humberstone.
Lee Feldman's charges are said to be related to the same activities as those against Kenny Alexander. However, there is no publicly available information about charges against eight other individuals involved in the case, their names, or the period of the alleged criminal acts.
Apart from Feldman, the only individual named in the search results is Hannah Gannagé-Stewart, but no direct connection to Kenny Alexander or the charges has been stated. It is important to note that the individual charged in a separate case involving a 28-year-old man accused of murdering an 81-year-old woman in February 2025 is not related to the GVC case.
The alleged activities occurred between 2011 and 2018 and are believed to be connected to the iGaming industry. The specific company involved in the alleged activities is not specified in the provided information, but it has been previously mentioned as Entain.
The charges were announced by the UK Crown Prosecution Service on August 28, marking a significant milestone in the ongoing investigation. The case serves as a reminder of the importance of transparency and integrity in the iGaming industry.
As the investigation continues, more details are expected to emerge, shedding light on the intricacies of the case and the role of the individuals involved. The public will be kept informed as more information becomes available.
