(The Sun UK) LOTTERY officials are facing calls for a cheating probe after 433 punters all won the jackpot with the same numbers.

The winners are in line to split the £3.5million top prize – but politicians say they fear “foul play” and demanded an inquiry.

On Monday, the government-run Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office posted photos of dozens of winners queuing to register their claims.

It said a total of 433 tickets matched all six numbers — 9, 18, 27, 36, 45 and 54 — in the 6/55 Grand Lotto Draw on Saturday.

The winning numbers are all multiples of nine.
