Fifty six people involved in an illegal online gambling ring in Vietnam were ordered to serve prison time ranging from nine months to eight years.

The People’s Court in Ho Chi Minh City handed down the sentences on Tuesday, media outlet Vietnam News reported.

Eight others were also ordered to pay a fine between VND 30-50 million ($1,300-$2,200) for gambling.

Vuong Chan Thanh, who authorities said led the gambling ring, was sentenced to spend eight years in jail.
