The Telangana government has taken a key decision in the ongoing investigation into the promotion of betting apps. The state has ordered the transfer of all betting-related cases registered in Hyderabad and Cyberabad to the Crime Investigation Department (CID) for further scrutiny. This move comes amid increasing concerns over the involvement of celebrities in illegal betting activities.
A total of 25 celebrities have been named in the cases filed in Punjagutta and Miyapur police stations. These individuals are under investigation for allegedly promoting betting apps, which have gained significant traction in recent months, leading to widespread concerns over gambling-related activities.
The CID has now been tasked with conducting a detailed probe into the matter, focusing on the promotion and operation of these betting apps, as well as the role of the celebrities involved. The government's decision to shift the investigations to a specialized agency is seen as an effort to ensure a thorough and impartial inquiry into the case.
