Irkutsk FAS finds 1win ad in Instagram blogger's video violated Russian law
The regulator did not issue an order because the video was no longer being distributed, according to the iGamingNews Telegram channel.
Russia's Federal Antimonopoly Service office in the Irkutsk region found an advertisement for gambling operator 1win in an Instagram blogger's video violated advertising law on 11 November, the iGamingNews Telegram channel reported.
The video appeared on the Instagram profile of blogger Nikita Minchenko, known as 1nikmin, in June. According to the channel, the regulator's decision said a smartphone screen displaying the 1win logo appeared at the 47th second.
The regional FAS office said the advertisement breached two provisions of Russia's advertising law, the channel reported. It said the ad appeared outside the platforms permitted for gambling advertisements and on a service blocked in Russia.
The office did not issue an order because the video was no longer being distributed, according to the Telegram channel.
The materials were referred for the initiation of an administrative case under Article 14.3 of Russia's administrative code, the channel reported.
