Nineteen people were arrested when police and soldiers raided an illegal, mobile card game.
Banglamung and army personnel swept into the Phuping Pattaya View in Moo 11 village Nov. 21, seizing an unspecified amount of cash and playing cards.
Allegedly the card game has been going on in the Pattaya area for some time, moving to a different hotel each day. Police have been monitoring it and the military is concerned as there were rumors a high-ranking naval officer had a share in the operation.
Police finally determined where the game would be held in advance and launched their raid.
