South Korean citizen Kim, aged 45, was detained in Pattaya, Thailand, following an Interpol Red Notice. Immigration police officers apprehended the individual for operating illegal online gambling platforms.
Deportation and Investigation
Police conducted a search of Kim's residence, uncovering server systems and computers linked to five distinct iGaming products. Each platform reportedly generated an annual turnover exceeding ฿124 million. Authorities annulled the suspect's visa and initiated deportation proceedings to South Korea.
The local immigration bureau executed the warrant based on international law enforcement data regarding fraud and unauthorized gambling operations.
Law enforcement agencies are expanding the scope of the inquiry to identify additional members of the criminal network operating within Thailand.
