PHUKET: A raid on a gambling den yesterday (Oct 25) by no less than 15 officers of the Kathu Police accompanied by Royal Thai Army soldiers from the 25th Military Circle, the division stationed in Phuket, resulted in just one arrest – that of a 72-year-old man.

 

The raid was carried out on a building located in Division 3 at the rear of the Phuket Villa Kathu housing estate, located on Phra Phuket Kaew Rd, yesterday evening (Oct 25).

 

The raid was organised after officers were informed of gambling at the site, explained Kathu Police Chief Jakkawat Thaweekulsawad.
