Kazakhstan.- Kazakh authorities have extradited a suspect accused of running an illegal online casino that allegedly processed more than KZT3.1bn (US$6.2m) in player funds. Rantik Bakhtiyar Ogly was arrested in Georgia after being placed on an international wanted list in August 2025.
According to investigators, the scheme operated through bingo37.pro platform, which allegedly offered access to more than 1,000 titles, including keno and digital casino products. Authorities said the platform was promoted through Telegram and WhatsApp using advertisements and bonus offers designed to attract players.
The Financial Monitoring Agency in Mangystau reported that the operation used third-party bank accounts to obscure financial flows. Citizens of Georgia and Tajikistan were reportedly recruited to travel to Kazakhstan, open bank accounts and register phone numbers, which were then handed to the organiser.
Authorities described the structure as a coordinated system intended to handle large volumes of player payments while concealing the origin of funds.
