GAMBLING IN AFGHANISTAN

Afghanistan’s stance when it comes to all forms of gambling is that they are strictly illegal. This is assumed to include online gambling. The story here isn’t so much what players can do to try to gamble here, as that’s not a practical option at this point. Instead, the focus is more on what opportunities for online gambling access will open up for players over the next few years.  국산야동

There are very few opportunities for the licensing process for any type of online gambling in the next decade. The first thing that will need to happen for this to become a possibility is for more people to have the ability to get online, and there are some conflicts in place that are further preventing that from happening. If that happens, which is unlikely in itself, then there will be a dramatic change in how their government is run.

Gambling has been a popular form of entertainment for a long time in Afghanistan. Afghans like to gamble in ways that may not be common for other countries, such as in casinos or poker. In fact, casinos have been banned since the emergence of Sharia law which considers it to be from Satan. The Taliban banned gambling and casinos in 1996 when it came to power and incorporated this ban into the new Afghan legal system

Since there are no licensing processes in place, there are also no player protections. Players can gamble online at their own risk if they have access to the Internet, but this is not recommended because the penalties for doing so are relatively unreasonable to crime.
