DSI Denies Rumors of Closing Shuffle Gambling Investigation

The Department of Special Investigation (DSI) has issued a formal statement to address and dismiss circulating rumors suggesting that the investigation into the Shuffle.com online gambling platform will be terminated. The case has drawn significant public attention due to its alleged connections to the husband of a Thai Member of Parliament, known as 'Idea'.

According to the DSI Director-General and the Director of the Bureau of Technology and Cyber Crime, there is no current plan to close the case or transfer the responsibility to another agency. Officials emphasized that the investigation is ongoing and that they are actively working to complete the questioning of 11 digital asset companies involved in the matter. The DSI noted that the process requires significant time to ensure that all evidence is gathered comprehensively and accurately.

For residents and visitors, this development highlights the ongoing scrutiny of digital gambling operations within Thailand. While the investigation continues, the primary focus remains on the collection of evidence. It remains to be confirmed how long the investigation will take and whether any formal charges will be filed against specific individuals or entities as the DSI continues its review of the digital asset firms involved.
