Banglamung authorities arrested 30 people in a raid of an underground casino in Huay Yai.
District Chief Naris Niramaiwong led a squad of police and soldiers in the operation against the Sia Noy Tunglalan gambling den hidden in a wooded area of Tunglalan May 18.
Officers snuck up on the site and watched gamblers come and go from the casino, which was located on an island in a lake. Realizing the challenge of the “moat”, authorities decided to completely surround the site before moving in.
The 30 suspects were taken in and officers seized cash, gambling equipment and betting records.
Alleged casino boss Chai Suetrong, 50, was caught with 8,020 baht and dice.
