A statement from AIM listed BETonSPORTS said: “While changing flights in the USA en route from the United Kingdom to Costa Rica, David Carruthers, Chief Executive of BETonSPORTS plc was detained by US federal authorities.

It is unclear at this point if this outrage against a non-US citizen is directly relatedto recent gaming regulation and the Wire Act or if authorities are seeking to gain information against the former BETonSPORTS head man, a US citizen.
