Pattaya police raided a house in Pattaya today, believed to be the base of a major Indian online gambling operation. The raid uncovered evidence of daily transactions worth over 200 million rupees or around 100 million Thai baht.
Over 50 officers surrounded the house in question, and upon entering, police found nearly 10 Indian men working on computers and taking phone calls related to various online gambling games, including baccarat, poker, slots, and sports betting. Officers then went to inspect an upstairs bedroom where they found another group of Indian nationals sleeping.
The suspects were escorted downstairs. It was understood that all 21 suspects are Indian nationals, some with student and tourist visas, while others did not have passports. Police did not identify them. None had legal work visas or work permits, not that these are available for running illegal gambling websites.
