Cybercrime police swept through 12 key locations to dismantle the prominent online gambling network GALAXY959, seizing an array of luxury vehicles and various incriminating materials. This high-stakes operation that circulated billions of baht took place at 6.30am today.

 

Captain Worawat Watnakornbancha, the chief of the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB), accompanied by Captain Piroj Sukruaythanachot, and Captain Amnat Traipoj, led the operation.

 

They conducted searches at 12 locations across five provinces including eight points in Bangkok, and one each in Samut Prakan, Sa Kaeo, Samut Sakhon, and Ayutthaya to gather evidence against the online betting network, GALAXY959, and to pursue and arrest 13 suspects according to the warrants.

 

One noteworthy location was a home within The Plant Estique Pattanakarn 38 in the Suan Luang district of Bangkok.

Just imagine how much tax the government could earn from legal casinos. But they will never happen as the 'untouchables' who own the illegal ones won't allow it. Instead, about every five years a committee is set up to pretend to examine the feasibility of allowing casinos to open, usually in Pattaya, and then it all goes quiet again.
