The Main Department for Combating Cybercrime of the MIA continues operations against individuals organizing illegal online betting and casino games within the country.
“Elchi” reports that this was stated by the MIA.
As a continuation of the operational measures, other members of the gang suspected of criminal collusion with Zaur and Fuad Narimanov – Orkhan Huseynov, Zaur Shirinov, and Emin Mammadov – were also arrested.
During the investigation, it was determined that the gang members laundered large sums of money obtained through the “Xbet” and “MostBet” platforms using various methods. It was established that they carried out a total of 10 million manats in illegal financial turnover through the organization of illegal betting and gambling.
In connection with the fact, a criminal case has been initiated in the Main Department under the relevant articles of the Criminal Code.
Charges have been brought against Zaur and Fuad Narimanov, as well as other suspects. By court decision, they have been remanded in custody, and other types of preventive measures have been selected.
“We once again appeal to citizens not to participate in “Xbet”, “MostBet”, and other illegal betting games offered on social networks and internet platforms. It should be taken into account that the illegal organization, management, and participation in such activities create criminal or administrative liability in accordance with the requirements of the legislation,” the MIA stated.
