Adam Michael Green, 41, of Newcastle, allegedly placed 1,170 bets on rigged international table tennis tournament matches over a seven-month period. He was arrested in December. The police brief of evidence against him stretched to 6,500 pages. Magistrate Caleb Franklin put the case off until June 24 to give both parties enough time to determine what should happen next. Green was excused from Friday's brief hearing. No pleas have been entered at this stage. Green is charged with one count of using corrupt information to bet on an event, one of knowingly dealing with proceeds of crime with intent to conceal and two counts of providing the corrupt info to two other people.
