A man has been arrested in an operation to crackdown on illegal gambling in Ipoh, Perak on Friday (Oct 6).
Ipoh OCPD Asst Comm Yahaya Hassan said the gambling den had businesses such as telecommunication shops, and sundry stores as a front to avoid detection.
01:41 The Ipoh police will take action from time to time.
01:46 Up until today, for the last 2 weeks, the Ipoh police have been cutting the electricity bill to 23 perennials.
01:57 I hope that the Ipoh police will take action to warn the people involved in the wiretapping to stop their activities.
02:16 Most of the police are selling communication equipment, running a chain of shops. They are selling the wrong things, instead of doing the right things.
02:39 We have successfully arrested a police officer today, who was found to be still involved in the wiretapping.
02:51 Even though the police have already arrested him, the activity is still going on.
02:57 Based on the information we have received from the public, we are taking action to stop the wiretapping.
03:08 What we have found is that the activity is not only limited to one area.
03:18 Based on the information we have received, some people are still continuing the activity, even though the police have arrested them.
03:29 As of today, it is not a common occurrence.
03:37 Even though the police have arrested them, they are still continuing the activity?
03:39 Yes, they are still continuing the activity.
