Lottery cons exposed

The State Committee on Securities and Prosecutor’s Office said in a joint statement Monday that they had exposed organizers of an illegal lottery.

In June 2001, a group of unidentified persons, in violation of the law “On state registration” and without a required license, was selling Bonus America lottery tickets at AZM2,500 at the National Park and English service tickets at AZM5,000 at the Bina Airport and Sadarak shopping center.

The materials collected have been forwarded to the Ministry of Taxes for investigation.*
