(UK).- A Saudi heiress has been ordered by a High Court judge to pay 'everything she owes' to the Ritz Casino following claims that the venue had encouraged her to keep spending despite suffering from 'gambling addiction'.
Judge Anthony Seys Llewellyn threw out the case saying that Noora Abdullah Mahawish Al-Daher, who he labelled as ‘unimaginably rich’, must pay the full costs to the Piccadilly casino, where she said staff had taken advantage of her condition. He said the loss was no catastrophe for the Arab politician’s wife, who two months after her losses in London lost another US$ 5 in Las Vegas. ‘Mrs Al-Daher is a person of wealth unimaginable to the ordinary person and, I suspect, to many of moderate or substantial wealth,’ the judge said. ‘The enormous sums she gambled and the enormous losses she sustained were within her means."
