The presumption under section 19 was properly engaged and was not rebutted on the evidence; the magistrate did not err in law on burden of proof; the CCTV footage together with possession of a key, involvement in the tenancy and committee status permitted the irresistible inference that the appellant operated the premises as a gambling establishment; the conviction and the sentence of three months' imprisonment are upheld.
