Awangku Rahman Pg Hj Yussof and Sili Kurus, who are both unemployed, admitted that they played a game of "katam-katam" at a house in Kg Lorong Paduka, Kg Mata-Mata.

Anti-Vice CID personnel, who received a public tip-off, arrested the men at the house on Dec 25, 2007.

During the raid, officers seized a katam-katam cloth (playing mat), a `mover' for katam-katam together with three dice, $222 cash, $20 cash inside a tin and a small red Nike bag containing $549. They also found another katam-katam cloth (playing mat), a `mover' that contained nine dice, a table, 17 plastic chairs, two plastic tablecloths and $51 cash. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin

Sure takes a long, long time to go to the court for just a simple crime involving only two people. No wonder gambling involving dozens of people never get a trial and the perperators were laughing at the weakness of the crimebusters for failure to bring them to court as in the infamous gambling cases of Kampong Bukit Udal Tutong where hundreds got caught but no one ever fined and that's really fine.
