It's to risky playing in a country where gambling is restricted and illegal, because these countries have a ask force or specific police unit that haunts down gambling places and gamblers, so if you are in a country where gambling is restricted, control your urge to gamble if you cannot,  play online where the risk to get caught is much lesser than playing in a physical casinos, be discreet go around telling everyone that you like to gamble.
But it is also the chance of corrupt policemen to add income to their pocket that's why the illegal gambling activities is continue rising day after day and this is the same thing why this topic is happening .
Look there are tons of casinos that offers safeties from arrest but people still choose to play in illegal ? why?
because they felt the comfortability when they are those underground places than those who's on ;legal places.
But for me? i would rather play Online even if this legal or illegal because at least the opportunity of being arrested is lower.

There's an alternative to continue if you can't stop the urgency of gambling.

Playing online is one of the best option though the fan sn't the same playing alongside of fellow gamblers but much better than risking
yourself being exposed, aside from those task force that will chase you the pandemic also adds the threat playing with bounch of people
around.

IMO you'll never know what these people are thinking when you never step on their shoe and why they gamble since it's illegal and forbidden according to their religion. Maybe some people have a change of hearts or something it's just that they find gambling as a way to enjoy.

If Christians/Catholic have their own 10 commandments but people still fail to follow it then it's still the same as the other religions but I wonder if gambling is mentioned in the bible and quran. Maybe there's a huge debate going on in here and I know what are the aftereffects of being in gambling for too long that's why the government really set a precautionary measures to avoid their people of being addicted to it.
You got some point because even if we do say that its dumb to play while its restricted but we dont know on what are the feelings and mindset of those people whom do commit such violation.

Its neither they are really just seeking out for some fun that they havent experienced it way before thats why even they do know its risky but still theyve decided to proceed amidst of the risk
that they can possibly encounter later on but thinking off sensibly then its just nonsense for us on not to recognize it earlier.If you do know that it can give you possible problems
later on then its better to stop while its still early.

on the other hand it is easy to hide yourself when gambling online and they can access block sites using tricks unless if those people dont have an idea on how online gambling work because they are loyal to classic gambling

Thye will have a hard time tracking because you can always use a VPN to hide your identity online, even if they blocked gambling sites, and they need a court order because they can barge into your room, there's too many risks playing in physical casinos, the operators need to find a well-hidden location and they need lookout and they have to pay corrupt officials to protect them.
And they're still not sure about the physical casino because someone might sing a song to the authorities.

It's all about the money and if the price is right, there will be some folks that's also inside the hidden location that can be paid just to say something that they shouldn't say about the operations.

And that will lead all of them into another raid.

I don't blame those gamblers that were arrested by the Rapid Action Battalion squad at least they are over the 18years because the world is currently in economic sh*t and many people will try different means to find their ends and gambling is different from stealing.

I think the best thing the Bangladesh government can do now is to legalized gambling which will generate more income for the country rather than ban every form of gambling.
The major problem here is the religious state of the country, over 90% of the population in Bangladesh are Islamic, and this religion prohibits any forms of gambling. In addition, the politics, laws, and religion are interconnected there. For instance, there are numerous refers to Islam even in the constitution.
It understanding that most of the people in Bangladesh are Muslim but I believe there's no religion that supported gambling correct me if I am wrong and in a situation when people will still gamble if their religion or country rules is against it, it good to just legalize it to make money through it and include some restrictions laws.


On the other hand, I think we live at a time when freedom must be a priority, therefore, all the restrictions should be kept to a minimum. And what of those 10% of the population, which aren't Islamic? It seems unfair for them to suffer the consequences of the ban as well. But that's a very difficult issue and not something that can be easily changed.
That's the point their government shouldn't create a certain rule and regulation footing their self-understanding while others are hurt.

You see - in fact, the differences between legal and illegal casinos are quite insignificant. If we are talking about the harm from them, then there are no differences at all - both legal and illegal casinos are equally dangerous for players who cannot cope with addiction.
I think it is necessary to competently separate these issues - harm and taxation, as the government is trying to get into this area under the guise of slogans about harm, although it is only interested in taxes.
Yes, I agree that both legal and illegal casinos are dangerous for players who can not manage their emotion and money. The difference between both casinos is legal casino can operate freely without worry about the rules from the government. In contrast, the illegal casino operates in the underground and not many people knowing the places and the owner have support from the corrupt officers.

The government wants the taxation from all business, including the illegal casino, because they know the income from the illegal casino might be bigger than the legal casino. After all, that will include many illegal things, and that can be money launder. If the government can ask them to join with the government, sooner the government can get bigger taxation from the casino.

More illegal casinos operate in that country or other countries because people want to make money fast without trying hard. Those young generation does not realize the danger of playing gambling with a card game. They think that playing gambling can give them a chance to make money fast, but they are wrong because they will lose their money at any second and hard to recover the losses.

It is a lesson for us, especially if we have children who grow up to always take care of them and watch out for their environment, not to make a wrong way with their friends.

What do you think about legal casinos? Is there any other motivation? If not, why are you so negative about illegal casinos? I think that this kind of thing happens if the state abuses control and taxes, so people prefer to do without it. The best way to fight illegal casinos is through transparent rules for legal casinos and low taxes.
The legal casino is not a problem, especially if in that country gambling is allowed, so people can play gambling without worry being chase by the officers. The motivation is still the same: making money fast, but the difference is people do not have to worry about anything unless they think about how they do not lose too much money. I am not so negative about illegal casinos because we can not deny illegal casinos in many countries. Even if the state is not abusing control and taxes, the illegal casino can still exist underground and operate without government regulations. It happens in many countries, so the illegal casino attracts many people to try to make money.

18 years of age doesnt really have an issue since this had been the common legal age for someone to deal off with things and also cant be considered a minor.
The issue here is about making out illegal gambling places and activities in spite of the total ban or prohibition.Its just expected that government would
take up actions into those someone who do make out violations and for those who had committed such violation will surely be experiencing those
consequences.Why would really tend to get involved in things that are prohibited? When addiction strikes you then its really that to resist.

Exactly.

18 years old is not young anymore but they are young adult which has the rights to play gambling but still playing in a illegal casino or a place conducting gambling without any permit from the Government is still prohibited. Maybe they are not fond on playing online gambling that's why they do physical illegal gambling instead. How unfortunate of them because they got caught.

Another reason could be is that maybe they were just trying to make money to feed their families and themselves but sadly it turned out on an ugly way.

That's the risk gamblers have to take if they are in a location where gambling is prohibited, authorities in these countries are good at tracking these gamblers, some of the agencies are even well funded to go after these gamblers and gambling locations, these are the kind of places or countries where illegal gambling and corruption are rampant, there's always money to be made in gambling and the operators knows this, for every country where gambling is illegal expect underground gambling to exist.

It is the country with the highest density of people living in the City. Main reason for the corruption is the crowd and the lack of opportunity. When there is need, but unable to get fulfilled. This is where people get into corruption, and it is the government's responsibility to take active measures than just making bans.
This is the truth behind that news. Bangladesh already ranked many times for corruption. A huge number of people involved with corruption directly or indirectly. So, there has a huge possibility of money laundering issue. That's why, gambling and Cryptocurrency both are illegal here in Bangladesh. Maybe it will take time until corruption gets reduced a lot.

Acting on a tip-off

Probably a rival operation I'd guess, what better way to take out the competition make the cops look good and get some praise and kept busy filling out forms while you liberate the former customers in your now thriving establishment.   Its all nonsense because the demand is the cause not the providers especially.

With so many online gambling options through crypto currency nowadays I don't know why people keep risking themselves in land based casinos at countries where gambling is forbidden. Anyone can have a smartphone nowadays and internet connection isn't hard to have access too. That is all gamblers need to bet safely with crypto currency and to avoid shameful situations like the one mentioned on this report.
Traditional gambling can’t be totally replace by online casinos and if you gamble even thru online if gambling is still illegal in your country then you’re still not safe to gamble. Not everyone will play online even if they have means to do so, gamblers will still go to casinos.

I don’t know if gambling is illegal in Bangladesh but having an 18+ is not an issue since its already the legal age, its just that the authority caught them and they have to face the consequences.
That’s illegal for sure and unfortunately they didn’t succeed on playing secretly and the authority just made in time to arrest those individuals. I know gambling is fun but I wont take any unnecessary action just to play and violate the law whether you’re 18 or not, there’s no exception. I don’t think online gambling is also available in Bangladesh, they have a strong law against gambling.

These kinds of raids are not new in Bangladesh. They are a Muslim country and that's one of the reasons why gambling is prohibited there. But still, lots of people there doing gambling.

Those mini-casinos are running illegally so they are being taken down by RAB since then. That activity can't be stopped and as reported, there are lots of illegal casinos operating behind the shadow there.

Despite being a gambling-prohibited country, why there are lots of mini-casinos operating there? It's impossible that no corruption involved here or under the table negotiations.

Simply because people can't be stopped from gambling. Even during the first wave of the lockdown period where curfew and social gathering are prohibited there is still news where people are secretly gathering to gamble. Underground casinos are famous as well not just because it brings a lot of profit but also a lot of people patronize them. Some people are willing to take the risk even if it is prohibited just to satisfy their gambling cravings.

Because simply there are people whom do really like to play in physical casinos rather than on playing online, lets say that they arent aware but its impossible that they dont
know that online casino exist but they do still choose on having that personal hand on hand experience rather than on just pressing your own phone.
So i cant really blame off those people who wanted to play physically rather than digitally but of course if they do know that it is prohibited
then it would be better if they do try to avoid it as much as possible if they dont like further problems.
As they like physical casinos they will have to take the risks, occasionally being arrested, paying fines, suffering punishments, embarrassing themselves towards their communities, friends and families. Of course there is nothing wrong about gambling, but as that is how things works on that country, people should choose the less harmful way to keep practicing this hobby without too many negative consequences.
At least for me that wouldn't be a hard choice to pick between physical and crypto casinos.

I don’t know if gambling is illegal in Bangladesh but having an 18+ is not an issue since its already the legal age, its just that the authority caught them and they have to face the consequences.
As far as I know it's illegal with exception of horse racing and lottery.
