Crime Police Arrest 13 in Illegal Dice Gambling Raid in Bangkok’s Suriyawong Area
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Thirteen individuals have been arrested for illegally gambling in a private building in the Suriyawong area of Bang Rak district, Bangkok. Police seized gambling equipment and cash during the raid, with all suspects now facing prosecution under gambling laws. The operation took place on 30 May at approximately 15:30, after Bang Rak police received a tip-off from an informant about an illegal gambling ring operating inside a building on Soi Surawong 5. Following this, officers from Bang Rak Police Station, along with detectives from Metropolitan Police Division 6 and the city’s broader investigative division, coordinated a raid. Led by Pol Lt Gen Siam Boonsom, Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Bureau and supported by senior officers including Pol Maj Gen Noppasin Poolsawat and Pol Maj Gen Samart Promchat, the raid was executed under the command of Pol Col Thammasak Sarabun, Superintendent of Bang Rak Police Station. Upon arriving at the scene, officers surrounded the third floor of the building in question. There, they discovered a group of people actively engaged in a game of Hi-Lo, wagering for money without a legal permit. Police immediately moved in, announced their identity, and arrested all participants on site. Seized at the scene were one complete set of Hi-Lo equipment and cash totalling only 520 baht, consisting of five 100-baht banknotes and one 20-baht banknote. All 13 suspects admitted to participating in the illegal gambling session. The first suspect confessed to acting as the game’s organiser and was charged with “organising illegal gambling (Hi-Lo) for financial gain without authorisation.” The remaining 12 were each charged with “participating in illegal gambling (Hi-Lo).” All suspects were informed of the charges and subsequently taken to Bang Rak Police Station, along with the confiscated evidence, for further legal proceedings.

Crime Jealous Man Arrested After Double Murder of Wife and Father-in-Law in Kalasin
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A man has been arrested for the brutal murder of his estranged wife and father-in-law after a failed attempt at reconciliation turned deadly in Nong Kung Si district, Kalasin province. The suspect, identified as Mr Worachet, also known as “Tae”, reportedly opened fire, killing both victims on the spot before fleeing the scene. The incident occurred at the victims’ home in Nong Bua Subdistrict on 30 May. According to police reports, Mr Worachet arrived at the house on a motorcycle with two accomplices, their faces partially covered. He attempted to persuade his wife, 25-year-old Ms Maneerat, to reconcile and leave with him. However, her father, Mr Somdet, 50, intervened and insisted that any discussion take place at the home. In a shocking turn, Mr Worachet allegedly drew a firearm and shot both his wife and her father multiple times, killing them instantly. The suspect fled the scene, prompting a swift manhunt ordered by Pol Maj Gen Sirasan YuenSanguanchai, Kalasin Provincial Police Commander. Officers from Nong Kung Si Police Station, along with provincial and local law enforcement, launched a coordinated operation to locate the killer. Under mounting pressure, Mr Worachet surrendered to police approximately three hours after the shooting. He was accompanied by family members and handed over the firearm believed to have been used in the murders. Initial investigations suggest jealousy and domestic conflict as the likely motives. The suspect had a history of frequent arguments with the victim, often fuelled by possessiveness and control. Mr Chairat, 24, the younger brother of the slain woman and son of the deceased father, was present during the incident. He recounted that Mr Worachet had tried to drag his sister from her room to force her into a private discussion away from the house. When she refused and a heated argument followed, their father stepped in, reportedly saying: “If you’re going to shoot, do it here.” Before the words had barely left his mouth, the gunman opened fire. Mr Chairat expressed his grief and fear, stating that he strongly opposed any attempt to grant bail and hoped the court would impose the maximum penalty.

Crime Fake Online Gambling Gang Busted in Police Operation
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Police have dismantled a sophisticated criminal network behind a fake online gambling scam that tricked victims into investing large sums in a bogus “high-return” baccarat scheme, only to find themselves unable to withdraw any profits. The crackdown, codenamed “Operation Stop Fake Betting”, was led by Pol Maj Gen Witya Sriprasertphap, commander of the Crime Suppression Division (CSD). More than 50 officers were deployed across multiple provinces to arrest members of the gang, who lured victims with promises of easy profits from online gambling handled by supposed professionals. Eight suspects were arrested under court warrants for public fraud, importing false computer data likely to cause public harm, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and actual money laundering. The accused include 32-year-old ringleader Ms Natthakanya, along with Ms Sudarat, 35, Ms Natwara, 27, Ms Bussarin, 40, Ms Sairung, 43, Ms Wasana, 50, Mr Kriangsak, 25, and Mr Thatchawin, 34. Vehicles, three ATM cards, two computers, nine mobile phones, high-end designer goods and over 50 other valuable items, worth an estimated 2 million baht, were seized during raids in Bangkok, Nonthaburi, Pathum Thani, Ayutthaya, and Chiang Rai. Investigations were launched after multiple victims filed complaints stating they were initially invited to join a group promoting branded handbag investment. The focus soon shifted to a new “investment opportunity” involving online baccarat, presented as a fast-track to high returns. Victims were instructed to register fake gambling accounts and hand over their login details to a so-called team of professional players. The scammers showcased fabricated income screenshots and fake withdrawal slips to gain the victims’ trust. However, once money was transferred, the victims were unable to withdraw any profits. Instead, they were repeatedly asked to pay additional “processing fees”, including fictitious tax charges, account unlocking fees and even bogus international transaction fees. According to police, the gang operated with a clear structure, some members controlled mule accounts used for laundering funds, others withdrew cash from ATMs and a core group handled the deception and oversaw the entire scheme. One remaining suspect is still at large. Ms Natthakanya admitted to masterminding the scam, which began as early as 2021. Several other suspects claimed they were unaware of the operation’s criminal nature, saying they were only asked to lend bank accounts. All arrested individuals have been transferred to the CSD’s Division 3 for further legal proceedings. Authorities are intensifying efforts to track down the final suspect and are urging other potential victims to come forward. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-06-01.
