Gangsters 'behind match-fixing'

Match-fixing investigators in Europe believe governments in Asia are refusing to tackle betting fraud in their own countries. European police forces revealed 300 new cases of potential match-fixing in The Hague earlier this week . The games, mainly internationals played outside Europe between 2008 and 2011, are linked to another 380 cases. "It is the same crime cartel in Singapore, no doubt about it," said Friedhelm Althans of German police. The new games under question are mainly intnationals played in Africa, Asia and Central and South America, and investigators feel there is a connection to those they consider are behind attempts to rig games throughout Europe.
