The law in few words was stupid written in an attempt to regulate all gambling activities which are not monitoring by the state. It was about computer games and the prohibition it was supposed to cover only all kind of slots.

Personally I heard of it from friends not living here when they sent me icq messages with the article from cnet. It was really hard to believe that this could happen because it requires a remarkable degree of stupidity to succeed something like that and having in mind it's a period closes to elections I was near sure nobody would do such a huge mistake. I was wrong.

Two days ago a court considered the law unconstitutional and turned it to inactive. Every citizen has the right to turn any law that he considers against constitutional to a court and within a day or two the court can turn the law to inactive.
