Banglamung- In a pre-dawn operation, Nongprue law enforcement officials descended upon an illicit dice gambling establishment nestled within the heart of a forest in Chonburi Province near Pattaya. The targeted raid resulted in the apprehension of 15 suspects, who were allegedly engaged in unlawful gambling activities.

At precisely 1:06 a.m. this morning, a joint task force led by Mr. Weekit Manarojkit, the Banglamung District Chief, and Pol. Col. Thawee Kutthaeng, Superintendent of Nong Prue Police Station, executed the operation.

 

Accompanied by administrative personnel from the Banglamung District Nong Prue Police Investigation Team, they swiftly infiltrated the casino located at a cassava farm within Soi Thung Klong in the Nong Prue Subdistrict.

They may well raid my phone next when it's found I play cribb every night 🤔

Such high rollers WOW 2,820 baht, locals having a bit of fun in the woods.

And the government want us to believe that legalising casinos will stop illegal gambling.

1.06 AM is not "pre-dawn"

"descended upon" - just like Holy Spirit did in Bible?

ROFL

I can't believe they found a gambling spot hidden in a forest. It’s crazy what people will do to keep things under wraps. I've never been involved in anything like that, but it's good to see the authorities doing their job. If you ever feel like rolling the dice yourself (legally, of course), you can always use websites like https://dice.onl/ to roll the dice online. Stay safe out there!

Gambling takes place every where , even in our sleepy little village.

The only reason there are no raids is permission is asked for and given at a price by the senior police officer of that jurisdiction.
