The wife of the foreign minister of Oman is SUING a high-class London casino for losing money at its GAMBLING tables. Nora Al-Daher RACKED UP about -$3.5-million loss in the casino of one of London's most exclusive hotels, The Ritz. She blew the cash in just a few hours and then BLAMED staff at the hotel for not stopping her. The 50-year-old multi-millionaire INSISTED it was the casino's fault that she lost as they knew she had a gambling problem. That’s what she told the judge at the High Court in London: "I needed someone that night to tell me to stop playing and bring me to my senses. If I had been told to stop, of course I would have done so immediately, but no one ever told me to stop or to think about my gambling."
Her ATTORNEY told the court that casino staff URGED her to lose money,he said: "Staff positively encouraged her when she was losing, saying, 'Anything for you, Princess Nora. We trust you. No problem. Relax. Don't worry....The next time you will get your money back'."
