Japanese authorities raided the headquarters of a gaming arcade operator on Thursday as part of a bribery investigation centred on a governing party politician, local media reported, widening a scandal that could undermine government efforts to develop casinos. The Tokyo-based firm was under investigation for possible ties to politician Tsukasa Akimoto, who was arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of accepting bribes when he oversaw the government's policy on casino development, broadcaster NHK said. Following Akimoto's high-profile arrest, Japanese media reported that prosecutors have been expanding their investigation into whether he accepted cash and gifts from 500.com, an online gambling operator based in China interested in developing a casino in Japan. Prosecutors have arrested three other people suspected of bribery and raided the offices of two other ruling Liberal Democratic Party politicians in connection with the case, media reported. While Japan's top government spokesman insisted that Akimoto's arrest would not delay its plans to develop three casino resorts, the investigation will likely raise questions about the bidding process. Analysts say Akimoto's arrest may add to the negative images that many Japanese people have of casinos, and also weigh on Abe, who is fighting allegations of using party funds to entertain supporters, lowering his public approval rating.
