Senior police from Chonburi and Bang Lamung officials with a search warrant from the Pattaya court raided business premises near a school yesterday. 
 
In two separate areas they found 161slot machines.
 
Some are old and some had been moved there in recent months, said the police. 
 
There was evidence that people had been living at the premises with bedding, plates and cutlery and a motorbike.
 
The raid was made after a member of the public contacted the police with concerns about the spread of Covid-19 on the Line Official Gambling Report app.

Why does this remind me of a line from 'Tommy' by the Who?

That deaf dumb and blind kid cop sure plays a mean pinball candy crush.

I did try, I searched on Play Store for 'Line Gambling Report' - nothing. Wot a swizz.

 

Even if it was a government run app for 'gambling', that would be legal. Same as the lottery - described officially as 'not gambling, but a game of chance'.

A one armed bandit was seen running from the scene. ????

Surely bar girls could be labelled as 'Slot Machines' and are equally illegal. None of them are working at the moment, so should they be investigated as well?  ????

 

Getting a funeral raided! Easy now Colin. ????

I have to laugh when I see all the hoopla about illegal gambling and covid. What about all these shady little online gambling shops, with the opaque glazing on the front door and usually a few football club insignias on the door. There are seven on our road alone. And hundreds in the city I live in. What are they about? Talk about eyes wide shut

Even Thais are getting tired of the gambling addiction becoming a threat to lives and incomes.

It would be the regular LINE app, but a group or contact (the police) that you can send a message to.

A lot of them are in storage at the moment as well.  ????

 

All part of the plan.

 

Raids and arrests.  Showing it's out of control.  All that black money going to criminals.

 

Then sell the public on controlling gambling, putting the criminals out of work, and have the profits benefit the country.

In the absence of a police force, the public are filling the gap.

Do you really believe "rats" have suddenly decided to inform?

Not suddenly... not sure where I wrote that.

Last report relating to the shisha smoking den in soi 8 suggested foreigners were used.... but to uncover a beer bar having a closed shutters could be detected by any old street stroller.
