On April 12, the Go Quao District Police Investigation Agency (Kien Giang), said that this place has just dismantled a cockfighting venue that won with money.

The police arrested 18 people, seized eight fighting cocks, more than 100 million VND, four motorbikes and many other items for cock fighting and gambling.
According to the police, this cockfighting venue is located next to the river and has existed for several years, mainly operating during the day. The organizers have many sophisticated tricks, vigilance… to deal with the functional forces.
Through reconnaissance work, the functional forces determined that this venue not only organized cockfighting but also organized gambling in the form of shaking money and fainting. Each time the organization has hundreds of people from many localities participating, the amount of bets for a win or loss ranges from a few million to several tens of millions of dong.
In order to eliminate this gambling den to ensure local security and order, the Go Quao District Police’s reconnaissance force had to disguise themselves and it was very difficult to approach and arrest the gamblers.
