Police spokesman Pol Maj Gen Piya Utayoh said all police stations have been told to warn all service venues such as hotels, restaurants and karaokes not to support or get involved with the betting on Euro 2012.

Those found allowing gambling at their venues would be charged with violating the gambling Act and their business permits be revoked.

The Euro 2012 football matches are scheduled to run from June 8 until July 1 in Poland and Ukraine.

The spokesman added police would also ask administrators of educational places to monitor their students so they would not become involved in gambling on the Euro matches.
