Local media GaúchaZH was in the establishment yesterday evening and found the possibility of taking bets on the slot machines.
At the moment that the media was in the house of Avenida Cavalhada, there was players in the gaming house. At the entrance, visitors could get access to employee guidance on how to use the gaming equipment.
The house opened on October 19, but with
machines operating without betting. Nine days later, Winfil started to allow
money bets on the slots.
The motive was a decision of the 3rd Public Treasury Court of Porto Alegre -
the establishment filed a preventive security order- and Judge Viviane de Faria
Miranda granted an injunction prohibiting the Military Brigade and the Civil
Police from apprehending, in the eventual operation, machines of the gaming
house. Last week, an order from the 3rd Civil Chamber of the Court overturned
the ruling.
