Online gambling bust in Bangalore

Bangalore media reports that an online Matka operation was busted by Central Crime Branch law enforcement in Ejipura this week.
Based on an anonymous tip-off, law enforcement officials raided a house and arrested three men who are accused of running the operation, said to be headquartered in Mumbai.  The three men are thought to be merely henchmen in a bigger operation and have been running the operation from the small house for some time.  Investigations will continue.
Matka is a form of gambling that originated in Mumbai, India and is a system of gambling on numbers. Punters bet money on numbers and the winning number can receive up to eighty times the sum wagered.
A senior police official from Viveknagar police station commented “They are agents who entice people into online gambling”.
