Constitutional Court rules gambling restrictions in Daugavpils compatible with Satversme

Latvia's Constitutional Court, which assesses whether legal provisions comply with the country's constitution (the Satversme), has found that restrictions on organising gambling in the Daugavpils administrative territory are compatible with it. Court chair Irēna Kucina announced the decision at a press conference on Friday.

As a result, the restrictions on gambling in Daugavpils that were reviewed remain in force, since the court did not find them to contradict the constitution.

The source gives no further details about the content of the restrictions, who brought the case, or the court's reasoning.
