Food and beverage are also quite high,&quot; said Golez, who is representing the camp of Kazuo Okada.Okada was removed as chairman in 2017 but a Supreme Court status quo ante order mandated the hotel casino to revert to the status quo prior to his removal.Golez clarified that following the order, Okada&#x27;s camp took over the management of the establishment and that it was not a violent takeover.&quot;There was no violent takeover on May 31 rather there was a violent defiance of the Supreme Court order,&quot; he said.
