Sportbook Raided

SrMuny · Oct 13, 2003

Cant confirm, bgut seems as if one of the BOOKS in the FREEZONE by the AIRPORT was raided today by Local and US officals.

Anyone else here anything?

Why the name FREEZONE Sr Muny?

Thanks

They don't have to pay tax, General hence the name free zone.

YUP, so BOOKS choose one of the FREEZONES there in Costa Rica, gives them a HUGE TAX break on computors and other office stuff.

I know SBG is in a freezone, not sure wich other books.

Makes pretty good sense men. Thanks

lesson for the day

No not really. A lot chosse to be closer to the CAPITAL City of San Jose or San Pedro, more convienent. Most FREE ZONE are outside the CITY.

lander · Oct 13, 2003

are freezones like Indian reservations?

PariActionOffice · Oct 13, 2003

The free trade zone by the airport is a different free trade zone. SBG and one small book are there...

Chadster · Oct 13, 2003

Thanks for the clarification.

PariActionOffice · Oct 13, 2003

OK, what I am hearing now is that the BOOK in question, is some OBSCURE BOOK operating out of a rented HOUSE in HEREDIA..

Was contacted by one of the clerks who is now looking for work.

My guess is now of us play there. Havent heard the name of as yet. Will keep you posted.

Sr. Muny:

1. Are you sure US authorities along with the locals?

2. Was this an incident related to either immigration or not paying required CR govt fees?
