Feb 9 (Reuters) - Blackstone-owned Crown Resorts has cleared its CEO after investigating an allegation that the company chief had overruled the Australian casino operator's security officers over banning intoxicated customers.

Crown Resorts had begun an internal probe into Chief Executive Ciaran Carruthers in December 2023 when it was claimed that the CEO had allowed patrons back into the Melbourne casino after they had been removed by security. (Reporting by Rishav Chatterjee in Bengaluru; Editing by Savio D'Souza)
