80 Indian gamblers, including Chikoti Praveen from Telangana, were arrested in Thailand for participating in a large gambling operation. Chikoti Praveen is accused of setting up the gambling den in Pattaya with Thai women and bringing in people from Hyderabad and other parts of India to gamble. The group was caught by police during a late-night raid on the Asia Pattaya Hotel. The Thai police acted on information received from detectives that several Indians had booked rooms in the hotel and were using a conference room called Sampao for gambling. The gamblers were caught with a total of Rs 100 crore in their possession, which is considered a serious crime in Thailand as it is a predominantly Buddhist country.
