Police Raid Illegal Gambling Den in Nonthaburi

On the night of November 4, 2026, a joint task force consisting of Nonthaburi provincial police, Sai Noi police, and local administrative officials conducted a raid on a residence in Nong Phrao Ngai, Sai Noi district. The operation followed reports from local residents regarding suspicious activity and frequent vehicle traffic at the property. Upon entering the premises, officers discovered 43 individuals actively engaged in a 'kam thua' gambling game. The suspects were reportedly so focused on the game that they were unaware of the police presence until officers ordered them to stop. All 43 individuals were taken into custody, and a significant amount of gambling equipment was seized as evidence. The raid was led by senior police officials, including Pol. Col. Supachai Srisak and Pol. Col. Natdecha Thanisaphatthraphong, alongside the Sai Noi District Chief. For residents and visitors, this incident highlights the strict enforcement of anti-gambling laws in Thailand. While the immediate situation has been addressed, further details regarding the legal proceedings against the detainees and the potential involvement of organized operators remain to be confirmed by the authorities.
