The gambling capital accumulated more than 400000 yuan. The circumstances are serious. Their acts have constituted the crime of opening a casino and should be punished. In view of the fact that the defendant Zhang has the plot of voluntary surrender, the defendant Dong is an accomplice, and can truthfully confess his crime after arriving at the case and during the court trial, and has a good attitude of pleading guilty, both defendants shall be given mitigated punishment according to law. Finally, the court made the above judgment. After the sentence was pronounced, the two defendants appealed against it.
