Coljuegos warns campaigns lack authorisation for raffles in Colombia
Coljuegos said it had not authorised raffles or promotional games run by presidential campaigns, after a raffle at Santiago Botero’s Bogotá campaign venue distributed COP25m. The regulator said unapproved activities may face investigation and sanctions, and noted that cash prizes are prohibited except under legal exceptions that do not cover political campaigns.
Campaigns and operators need authorisation from Coljuegos before running raffles or promotional games.
