Gambling addict on hunger strike to close betting shops

Neuroliberation campaign | 06.11.2012 15:00 | Culture | Health | Social Struggles | South Coast | World

Chingiz Kozhogulov is hunger striking outside parliament to raise awareness of the destructive nature of betting shops. He wants them closed!!!! Please support him!!



Chingiz Kozhogulov, 32 who lives in Tower Hamlets has been addicted to gambling since 2004 when a friend of his introduced him to fixed odds betting terminals.

"I lost trust from my friends, wife even my kids. I will not stop my hunger strike until shut down betting shops or at list remove FOBT machines. " Says Chingiz.

He says it is his only option now , when speaking to him he told us if he was going to die from gambling addiction, he may aswell do some good.

He plans to go on hunger strike until betting shops are closed down.

Since the gambling act 2005 came into place in 2007, corporate gambling industry giants such as Ladbrokes, Coral , William Hill and Betfred have launched an all out assault on the UK's general public.

There are more gambling addicts and betting shops on our high streets than ever before. This is contributing to part of a mass depression, with higher rates of crime, poverty, family breakdowns and mental health issues , causing our communities to become very dark places.

Please support him , he is outside of parliament doing a very brave thing.
