Likewise, the confiscation of the machines was carried out in game rooms, warehouses and areas located in different regions of our country, such as: Loreto, Pasco, Cajamarca, Junín and Lima; counting on the support and articulated work of the Public Ministry and the National Police of Peru.

The confiscation of slot machines and the closure of premises are determined in article 11 of Law No. 28945, which empowers the General Directorate of Casino Games and Slot Machines of the Mincetur to close those rooms that do not have authorization from the sector, proceeding to the seizure of the machines for their subsequent destruction.

Therefore, according to the Penal Code, those who participate in this illegal activity will be subject to imprisonment for not less than one nor more than four years, among other administrative sanctions.
