webfact Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 418 slot machines seized in Khon Kaen linked to gambling dens in Eastern Seaboard Picture: Naew Na Police in Khon Kaen in Thailand north east armed with a search warrant raided a warehouse in the Non Sawan housing estate in Muang district. After cutting their way in they found 418 slot machines under canvas. They were fully operational once plugged in, said Pol Maj-Gen Yingyot Thepjamnong. The raid was not linked to any gambling in Khon Kaen, but to illegal gambling in region two or the eastern seaboard. The raid followed a tip from a member of the public last week about the movement of gaming machines. Two arrests have been made as investigations continue.

Looks like the culprits were trying to stay one step ahead of the plod and move their investments before they were turned into play toys to be used by the Government in their soon to be advertised legal casino. What better way to obtain everything you need to start a legit business, seize it. Well done.....

Popular Post tonray Posted January 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2021 They should set them up in Immigration Offices around the country. Put 1900 baht in and see if you can get a Visa approval...save all the time and hassle of dealing with officers and paperwork. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised that the property consumer unit could take the load of so many. Useful too that the officer knows how to operate them and receive a jackpot from each. Thoroughness like this is what distinguishes the BiB from other security agencies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could pay out in token coins worth 30 days extension each. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
