Billionaire Who Blew Millions Gambling Blames the Devil: Won’t Pay Casino
A billionaire who gambled away £2million at London’s Ritz Casino is now refusing to pay his debt, claiming the devil made him do it.
The 52-year-old business mogul Safa Abdulla Al Geabury made that claim to a psychiatrist and it was presented to the High Court.
The frenzied gambling spree occurred in February of last year. Mr. Al Geabury claims the urge to gamble was as if he had been possessed and that the casino should have stopped him instead of continuing to offer a £5million credit line.
Al Geabury confirmed to the Court that he is worth approximately £1billion through his collection of Islamic artwork and diamonds.
Now Al Geabury suggests he is trying to make ends meet and was forced to sell his Rolls Royce and no longer dealt in gems.
