That's a muslim's country. That must become one of the main reason gambling is prohibited there. I meant it's also happening in majority of muslim countries caused by they were seeing gambling as something that must not be used by its believers.
That makes this become a common thing. As long as people have a way to access it if they want. that's not a problem for sure.
The ban might be a political move by the ruling Awami League to attract voters. The next Presidential elections would be held in February 2022 and the party is willing to do anything possible to please the populace. And 89% of the country's population are Muslims who see gambling as a sin. Politicians always pretend that the reason for the ban is because they want to reduce the high rate of gambling addiction and money laundering.
The case of gambling addiction among underaged online casino users is a really big concern because it has increased over the last few years. But this can be controlled or reduced through different effective preventive and regulative means than the ban. Politicians who are the main money launderers know that online casinos are their least means of money laundry, hence their decision always have other undertones.
