🇲🇾🇹🇭 Imagine having to prove you’re a gamer... in HANDCUFFS. That’s exactly what Thai Dota 2 pro 23savage says happened when Malaysian police raided his team’s bootcamp in Kuala Lumpur, seized their phones and passports, cut the internet, and questioned them for 2 HOURS.

The only real loss? 2 boxes of his Nutella, which the cops ate 😆 Source: Dexerto / Writer: Julie
