Crown Resorts director Andrew Demetriou denies "turning blind eye" to money laundering risks but concedes cultural issues at casino giant

Former AFL boss Andrew Demetriou has rejected allegations at the Crown casino licence inquiry that the company board "turned a blind eye" to money laundering risks. 

The former AFL boss Andrew Demetriou, who joined the Crown board five years ago, has conceded that Crown had a "failure of culture" where the top levels of the company were shielded from bad news about potential exposure to organised crime. 

Mr Demetriou is the latest Crown director to say he was "in the dark" about the arrests of staff in China four years ago. 

ABC's Peter Ryan is covering the NSW gaming inquiry and speaks with Thomas Oriti on ABC NewsRadio.
