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.
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.

There's just one problem why this has not been eliminated since then. Yes, they were able to spot them but after that, gamblers will still find ways to gamble. Why? It is because the sanction for gambling is a little bit less than what they must take in order to stop totally.

The problem here is that crime of illegal gambling is bailable, and the cost is very affordable to operators that’s why they can definitely go back to operate once they have been released. If Bangladesh could have this crime nonbailable, I think it would be more effective. Or else, they would just continue gambling secretly within their cells.

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.
Well that is a good thought, instead of banning them that won't help their economic growth why not they will enforce a heavy regulation on each gambling casino and accept those people that have a job will enter the casino. Legalization perhaps is a good decision for them right now instead of prohibiting gamblers or closing casinos. We can't blame the government if they already implemented such rules in their country and perhaps those who are arrested know what they do. It is their fault for not obeying their country's jurisdictions.

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.

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.

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.

Just scrolling in social media as like regular and got this news in my news feed. This is not surprising to me but as well as it is surprising too, because maximum were young generation whose age 18+. Though any type of gambling is prohibited in Bangladesh, they should be punished. Here, I will pasting the full article,

Ordinary news in my country in mid 2000s  Grin
And earlier, in 90s and early 2000s it was often that one relative killed another for money to gamble  Sad
On of my neighboors had done such terrifying thing to his wife after she forbid him to spend money on slots (in my country slots were in every bar and near every small store).

Maybe they don't have complaint thats why they didn't put an action towards it and they don't see it as a threat, if you think it already cost damage to the citizen and know people who's addicted to much on those illegal casino popping up on your country better report it on proper authority so that we can see a good action towards it. But if they will not take an action even if they receive to many complaints well there's a big problem on the government since maybe they paid to protect their illegal existince.

Trust me when I say this, it's better not to even look into such matters and not even think of involving yourself in it else you'll suffer. I said previously that when there are no specific authorities whom we need to contact in order to report, it means that such illegal things are allowed to be done in a hidden way but when a person tries to break the system by going against it and complain to some higher authorities like police or even some politicians who were already bribed by those casinos, then such authorities do bad with the innocent guy. So it's just better to close your eyes and keep quiet till it doesn't touch you, and if it does, fight against it.

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.

18 is already considered as legal age in our country so those who are arrested aren't minors anymore. It's just that they have to pay for what they did since gambling is really prohibited in their country. We have to accept the fact is considered as a crime in some Muslim countries and communities. It has been happening over the years but we can't blame gamblers who are still committing illegal gambling activities because some of them are just finding ways to gamble.

In many countries people who are 18 are not considered minor and rather the legal age is 18 for Gambling and therefore it would ofc dependent on country to country but at the same time if the law did state all the terms and conditions then the punishment should be able to handle such case in a better way so it does not get repeated, since Many times people would just lay off the leverage and even the authorities are corrupted therefore in the wake of the pandemic's severity it can be missed. I do think that people involved should be thoroughly investigated and if the Government sees that people are gambling despite it being banned they should maybe try and consider making the laws a little more flexible.

You can just assume but there's also chance that there are people around the place who can finance that illegal activities, those who are willing to take the risk knowing the amount of possibile profits once everything went out accordingly right?

Just like you said, no one knows until certain information will be able to if this news will go deeper.

Money always have the power to control greed people.
As I mentioned that Bangladesh is a developing country and corruption is the main problem here. So, there is a huge possibility to buy people with money who are government officials and I believe that they will do it if they I mean outside of people what to do business here. I think it is clear now.
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.

Because Only Youngsters can have that desperate action in doing such thing .
Quote
Members of Rapid Action Battalion have busted a mini-casino and arrested 25 people in separate drives for gambling in two areas of Ashulia in Dhaka.

Acting on a tip-off, a team of Rab-4, conducted a drive in Palashbari area and busted the casino. They also arrested three people red-handed yesterday, said a Rab press release issued today.
I'm still asking myself why does Gambling prohibited in Some countries while in Many it is allowed?

Two cases were filed against them, and all were handed to Ashulia Police Station today, Rab official Sajedul said.

Just a Heads up, They are playing just to have fun and not to violate laws the problem is the capacity and the government support for their activities.
Yes, they are young stars but the rules will be remain same for all. They should obey the government rules first as it is also a cooperation with government. They can do that things at online which can be safe rather than playing offline. Though gambling is prohibited and it is not allowed to play at online but it can reduce your harassment which you are facing now (those 25 people). You quoted that why some countries are not allowed gambling. In Bangladesh, there are many suicidal cases and so many social problems and people are not well educated. Important thing is corruption. Those can be relatable for Bangladesh issues about gambling.

I suspected this mini-casino runs illegally due to no age restrictions. Not only because of its illegal activities but due to the presence of these young players it caught some attention and especially during this pandemic situation that there are a lot of limitations and restrictions.

This casino finds guilty and they should face the consequences of their violations. This is just to show how the government are really serious busting illegal operators, not only in offline casinos but they are also working in the online casinos as well. This could serves as a warning for the others, they'll soon to catch if they will never stop and cooperate with the authorities.

I'm sure they know the risk upon joining on gambling site but they ignore it since many of them think that they can double their money more faster if they try their luck to gamble their money. The new generation of gamblers now is so aggressive maybe the pandemic contribute since it creates hope for others to earn money since they don't have any resource known to earn money by quick schemes.
I am not sure about that. Even if they knew about that, they will still play gambling on the illegal gambling place because they want to make money fast or double their money shortly. I am very worried about the new generation in this era because many can not use the chance to make their lives better instead of ruining their lives. We are still in this pandemic but that does not mean we can not change our lives, especially to earn money. I hope the other young generations will not follow their step and use their time to have a better life.

Not because they are trying to earn faster but they are preventing from taxation or they don't feel comfortable in Legal casinos.
sometimes ordinary people felt like Out of Place when going to casinos but instead they wanted to small gambling houses.
No, I do not think that is about taxation because young generations seem to want to have a fast result than to enjoy the process. So they are trying to playing gambling which can help them to make money fast. But they are wrong if they think like that because gambling can not make them rich and have money instead of losing their money fast. But gladly, they were caught by the officers, hoping they do not do the same thing again in the future.

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.
18 years old is not a children and they are at many countries are allowable to gamble.
Yes, they are not children anymore, but they still need help from an adult to guide their lives and have a better life in the future. They lack control when they gamble and they can get addicted to gambling anytime. Even if in their country, gambling is allowable, they are susceptible to lose control in gambling.

This is an effort of the government to bust illegal gambling, and it's not new, if this country's officials are not corrupt, there will be more of this news we will hear soon, but if they are corrupt thne most likely this illegal casinos are just selected to show that they are doing their job. Actually a lot of casinos now are operating illegally but they have some protection from authorities so they are so confident in continuing their operation.
It would all vary with the government itself on what type does a certain country does have and same as you mentioned that busting scenario would really be that common if the government
itself cant really be bought by any bribe but if theyre corrupt then you would expect that there would be some exclusion and still continue to make out operations.

This is fact or the reality we've been dealing off since from the start and not all government would really be that serious on stopping those crimes if they would saw that they can
really benefit from it.

What if those arrested people claims that they were simply playing cards which is not prohibited when there is no money involved?

I am sure that this will be solved when enough money settled to the authorities because corruption and bribe is everywhere so people with money can escape with no pain from such small crimes.

Bangladesh is a third world country if they are able to bribe the police they will be out in no time. The question arises as, why to take such a risk when you know gambling is illegal in that country. I am not sure what was the purpose of sharing this article when you know that those who were caught are at fault. It is these guys who are to blamed and there is nothing to be astonished off, there are many illegal activities happening in the world only a few get caught doing them.
