Viet cops bust gambling ring


Hanoi: Vietnamese police have broken up an online gambling ring worth almost US$26mil (RM107.4mil) and arrested 10 people along with confiscating guns and cash, officials said, the latest big bust in a country where illicit betting flourishes despite tough laws.

The ringleaders ran several websites for sports betting and other forms of gambling which had attracted hundreds of online punters since July, according to a local police source and state media.
