Ladbrokes owner GVC Plc said on Tuesday that Britain’s tax regulator had widened its investigation into the gambling company’s former Turkish online business to include unidentified entities within the London-listed group.

The investigation by the HM Revenue & Customs (HRMC) began late last year and was then directed at former third-party suppliers over processing of payments at the business GVC disposed off in December 2017, the company said.

GVC Holdings Plc is a world sports betting and gaming company. The Company offer sports betting, casino, poker and bingo gaming solutions via its technology platform.
