Another major raid in Dhaka exposed Fakirerpool Young Men’s Club as an illegal casino site. Authorities discovered slot machines, betting materials, and financial records pointing to an extensive gambling operation.
The club, traditionally known for its community activities, had secretly been converted into a profit-making gambling venue. Political connections reportedly shielded it from scrutiny for a long time.
The incident raised national concerns about the use of sports and cultural organizations as fronts for illegal gambling, prompting further investigations into similar institutions.
