  "summary": "Three individuals, comprising two Indonesian women, have been arrested in Kulai Besar following a police raid suspected of targeting an online gambling operation. The operation, accessible via the website BukuPlus.com, allegedly involved three suspects aged between 26 and 29. Police seized a mobile phone displaying gambling-related content and RM400, believed to be gambling proceeds. The man was released on police bail after 24 hours, while the two women were remanded for 14 days due to lacking valid identification documents. The case is being investigated under the Common Gaming Houses Act 1953 and the Immigration Act 1959/63. Consequences for conviction include fines ranging from RM10,000 to RM100,000 for each seized gambling machine, up to five years imprisonment, or both, and whipping for the immigration act offence. The public is encouraged to report such activities to the police hotline at 07-663 2222.",
