TEL AVIV, Israel, November 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Naphtali Goldman (34) the sole owner of the Lucky 18 Group (http://www.lucky18casino.com ) has been exonerated of any wrongdoing by local authorities with regard to claims that he hosted and processed payment for the Lucky 18 casino in Israel.

Lucky 18 casino founded 2 years ago and a leader in the online gaming market was found to have all relevant licenses' to operate a legal and transparent online casino; after an exhaustive investigation, Lucky 18 casino has been found to run a bona fide legitimate operation as is required by law.

With tens of thousands of satisfied players, Lucky 18 casino has returned to full operational capacity.

Mr. Goldman and others were interrogated by Israeli authorities 2 months ago on claims of hosting an online casino platform within an Israeli jurisdiction.

All claims have since been found to be unsubstantiated and the owner of the Lucky 18 group fully exonerated.

Mr. Goldman stated:

"Our company has always been fully licensed, transparent and fair; our platform has never been hosted in Israel. The ethos of our company has always been to provide a fair and technologically advanced secure gaming environment and because of this, we are leaders in the online gaming field."

Judge Esther Nachliel - Khayat at the Rishon Leziyon Magistrates Court strongly doubted whether Goldman had broken any laws; she asked the interrogating authority:

"Tedi Sagi (The owner of Playtech - floated on the London Stock Exchange) was my neighbor. I am somewhat familiar with the subject. What is the difference between him and Mr. Goldman before me?"

The interrogating authority failed to demonstrate that any wrongdoing or bad practice had taken place.

Lawyers for Mr. Goldman stated that:

"Due to the lack of understanding about the online gaming industry, authorities acted irresponsibly opening the doorway to a substantial civil lawsuit."

A statement issued by the Lucky 18 Group management today stated:

"The interrogation of Mr. Goldman however encumbercent had no adverse effect whatsoever on the operation of the casino; Players continue to patronize our site because of our transparent operation, fair gaming and unrivalled customer support.

The management would like to thank affiliates and players for their continued support during this testing period."
