The Preah Sihanouk provincial court has charged and jailed two Taiwanese masterminds for running a phone scam ring that unlawfully recruited Thai workers in Sihanoukville last week. A sting operation on March 20 was led by Internal Security Department director Lieutenant General Sam Vanvireak and deputy prosecutor Huot Vichet.

 

The two raids in Sihanoukville resulted in the arrest of 31 Thais and now they are in custody at the Interior Mistry’s General Department of Immigration. Preah Sihanouk Provincial Hall spokesman Kheang Phearom said  the raids were jointly conducted by provincial immigration police in cooperation with the Ministry of Interior’s internal security department and the Thai police.

 

 

Provincial police chief Major General Chuon Narin said that two premises raided by police were in Sihanoukville and one of them was in a casino.

Vichet said yesterday the two Taiwanese men were charged with human trafficking under the Law on Suppression of Human Trafficking and Sexual Exploitation.
