"Of those arrested, four were women aged between 19 and 27 and only 17 possessed a passport," he said.
Zaini said they have been renting the premises since early November and started the call centre a few days before the raid.
Police are still looking for the mastermind and do not rule out the possibility that locals are involved.
"Their clients were Chinese nationals and all transactions made via a transfer device to banks in China," he said, adding no physical cash was involved.
Some of them were busy conducting online gambling transactions using laptops and mobile phones during the raid.
The raiding party seized 25 lap tops, 16 keyboards, 23 mouse, 25 laptop chargers, four routers, 55 mobile phones of various brands and five unit money transfer devices among others.
The suspects are being remanded until Thursday and the case is being investigated under Section 4 (1) (c) of the Betting Act 1953 and Section 6(1)(c) of the Immigration Act 1959/63. Also presence was State Police Crime Investigation Department Head SAC Datuk Jauteh Dikun.
