Authorities in Saraburi province arrested 29 individuals during a raid on an illegal gambling operation hosted in a luxury residence.

On November 15, 2026, police and local officials in Saraburi province conducted a raid on an illegal gambling den operating within a luxury house located on a hillside in the Kaeng Khoi district. According to Khaosod Online, the operation was situated approximately three kilometers from the Kaeng Khoi-Ban Na road, near the border of Cha-om and Tha Maprang sub-districts. Upon arrival, law enforcement officers discovered a group of individuals engaged in card games and dragon-tiger gambling. While 29 people were apprehended, authorities reported that approximately 10 younger suspects managed to escape by jumping through windows and fleeing into the nearby forest. The majority of those detained were older individuals from outside the local area. The property used for the illicit activity is reportedly rented from a local politician. For residents and visitors, this incident highlights ongoing law enforcement efforts to curb illegal gambling activities in rural and secluded areas. While the immediate arrests have been made, the investigation remains ongoing as police work to identify the true owner of the gambling operation and determine the extent of the involvement of the property's owner. Authorities are currently expanding their inquiry to uncover further details regarding the organizers behind this illegal enterprise.
