Neither casino borrower nor casino lender be

Debts and tempers rose fast at an Oddar Meanchey casino where two visitors were arrested for assaulting a local punter on Monday.

Crossing over from Thailand, the two loaned cash to their new friend.

They returned two days later to play more, and were arrested by district police for the attack.
