Five motodops in Kandal town bet against the house and lost on Saturday. According to police, several motodops were playing cards under a tree beside the road.

When patrolling police spotted the alleged illegal gambling, however, they pounced upon the group, which promptly scattered.

Police managed to grab five of the alleged card sharps, however, and confiscated six motos and some money, which they held until the suspects signed an agreement to stop gambling. KAMPUCHEA THMEY
