In a major crackdown, Telangana police raided a farmhouse in Moinabad, Rangareddy district, and busted an illegal casino and cockfighting racket. The late-night operation, led by the Special Operations Team (SOT) along with Rajendranagar and Moinabad police, resulted in the arrest of 64 individuals.

Authorities seized over Rs 30 lakh in cash, 55 luxury cars, 86 roosters used in cockfights, and 46 cockfight knives. Poker chips and other gambling materials were also confiscated from the farmhouse, which had reportedly been converted into a high-stakes gambling den.

Among those arrested, 10 are from Telangana, while the rest are from Andhra Pradesh. Police believe a well-organised syndicate was operating the setup, and an investigation is underway to trace the masterminds behind it.

A case has been registered under the Gaming Act and the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act at Moinabad Police Station.

Further action is expected as officials probe the scale of the illegal operation and potential links to organised crime.
