Online Gambling Takes a Dangerous Turn, Money Laundering on the Rise

Online gambling has emerged as a new threat in Bangladesh, rapidly attracting the younger generation. Many start with small investments of five to ten thousand taka but eventually succumb to greed, losing millions. Most of these gambling sites are operated from Russia, India, Malaysia, and Indonesia, with Bangladeshi agents facilitating the process. Billions of taka are being funneled abroad through these platforms, posing a significant risk to the national economy.
