121 cars seized by police from the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB ) on Saturday were those that were suspected of being connected to a significant online gambling community that had been shut down two years ago.
The officials searched a home and a car dealership in Nonthaburi’s Pak Kret area, where they discovered more than 120 vehicles, including a Lamborghini owned by a suspect who had been detained earlier during an online gaming assault, with warrants from the Nonthaburi municipal judge.
Another group, also armed with an arrest permit, searched a apartment in Bangkok and arrested Jirayus Charoenpong, 32, for allegedly cooperation in money fraud.
The searches were conducted as part of an expanded research into the 2023-banned Macau888 online gambling site, according to the CCIB.
The Customs Department and the Anti Money Laundering Office would examine the 121 confiscated vehicles in parallel, according to the statement.
