Lottery officials in the communist state of Laos are manipulating winning numbers to avoid large pay-outs, sources in the country tell RFA. Drawings of the national lottery often show numbers that have already been selected on purchased tickets, or that suddenly vanish from the available selection, the sources say. The number 09, for example, disappeared from all purchased tickets on Oct. 14, shortly before the drawing, only to appear as a 5 in the actual results. The private business interests responsible for the lottery are linked to the country’s ruling elite, the sources say.
