11 men were arrested when Pattaya police broke up an illegal cockfight on Pratamnak Hill.
About 20 Thai men were around the rooster-fighting ring when police raided the Pratamnak Soi 7 contest July 3. About nine escaped, although police did round up two roosters.
Somsak Nonpho, 37, one of the arrested, claimed the men were only training their chickens and were not betting. He did acknowledge, however, that the location had been used previously numerous times for cock fights.
