These allegations have drawn attention again even though Mansion Group stopped operating in October of last year.<\/p>\n<p>In October 2010, Karel Manasco started working with Mansion Group as a CFO. He was still the CFO but was elevated to CEO in 2017. However, Manasco resigned in late 2021 as a result of an internal inquiry, around two years before Mansion Group declared that it will close its flagship websites, <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/casino-news\/mansion-group-to-rebrand-casinocom-1115\/\">Casino.com<\/a> and MansionCasino.com.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Allegations and Legal Battles<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Early last month, Manasco accused the company of engaging in \u201cgrey area gaming,\u201d tax evasion, and operating in unlicensed jurisdictions. His claims, reported by The Olive Press, implicated several European countries, including Germany, Austria, Belgium, and France. Following these allegations, the Supreme Court of Gibraltar issued a \u00a35 million ($6.4 million) asset freeze order against Manasco in February 2023, requested by Mansion Group.<\/p>\n<p>Mansion Group\u2019s lawyer, interviewed by NEXT.io, \u201cvehemently denied\u201d the allegations, labeling them as \u201csensationalized, unsubstantiated and factually wrong.\u201d The lawyer refrained from further comments, citing legal actions and an \u201cinterim privacy regime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On the regulatory front, Gibraltar\u2019s gaming commissioner, Andrew Lyman, acknowledged awareness of the allegations. He noted that due to ongoing legal actions, \u201cit would be inappropriate to make any detailed comment as to any allegations which may arise therein at this time.\u201d Lyman described some claims as \u201cvery historical\u201d and pointed out that Mansion Group no longer holds a license in Gibraltar, raising questions about the regulator\u2019s jurisdiction over the defunct firm.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/7-bit-casino\/\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"7Bit Casino\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/7BitCasino.png.webp\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/7-bit-casino\/\" title=\"7Bit Casino\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">7Bit Casino<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong>177% up to 5BTC + 77 <strong>\u00a0Free Spins<\/strong>!<\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only.
