Thai gangster-turned-actor Panya Yimumphai – famous for his role in ‘A Prayer Before Dawn’ – was arrested on gambling charges at a house in Pathum Thani, just north of Bangkok, on Monday.

 

Thailand’s Cyber Police raided the property after Panya, better known for his gang name Keng Laiprang (“Keng Camouflage”), posted a TikTok clip inviting his followers to gamble on an illegal website.


The police showed the clip to the Criminal Court which issued search warrants for three locations in Bangkok, Pathum Thani, and Chiang Mai to seize evidence related to Keng’s alleged crimes. The search operation started on Sunday.

 

Keng Laiprang was arrested under suspicion of, “directly or indirectly persuading others to gamble” in violation of Section 12 of the Gambling Act (1935).
