India.- Police in Kapodra, Gujarat, have arrested 24 people for allegedly betting at an illegal gambling venue disguised as a yantra shop in Gayatri Society. Those arrested included two alleged operators. The remaining 22 were reportedly diamond workers who were placing bets on yantras. The owners are still being sought.
