If this has not been brought up here, I will do it. In the Philippines, this news is what everyone is talking about. Several gamblers were abducted and have been missing since. It has been only revealed that those missing gamblers were really killed after they were caught cheating in cockfighting.
A whistleblower says there were more than 100 that were killed. The prime suspect is Atong Ang, a businessman and a major player in the gambling industry. His team denies all accusations and says to be filing a case against the one accusing the businessman. It has even been said that some corrupt police men were involved in the abduction and killing of gamblers.
Anyway, whoever is behind all this should be punished and I hope the victims get the justice they deserve. I do not condone cheating in gambling but is killing really the way? Let us pray for the victims.
It's a horrible "sport" and anyone involved with it at any level is a pretty nasty person as well quite frankly. How you can find a shred of entertainment in two living animals that are scared and kitted out with killing instruments is barbaric. Can't say I can for cheaters in any sport, bet if you are going to mess with peoples money in the world of gambling then there's a big possibility of these things happening. I am confused how a hundred people were supposedly involved with cheating, but they were more likely winners who were simply disposed of instead of paying out to them - a convenient slur against their name and misdirection for the real reason. The fact it's all underground only makes these things even more likely to happen.
