geovalin Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 As reports of Cambodia’s alleged “blood slave” attracted tens of millions of online comments in China, Interior Minister Sar Kheng said this week he called on Chinese Public Security Minister Zhao Kezhi to shut down rumors and repair public opinion. Speaking at a meeting with immigration officials on Wednesday, Kheng referred to a Chinese man who was hospitalized in Phnom Penh and claimed in February to have been trafficked into the country and had his blood harvested after refusing to work in online scam operations. Doctors and medical documents told of the man having a severe blood deficiency. Thousands of foreign nationals are said to be working in such scam operations in Cambodia, with many rescued victims telling of forced labor, detention and torture. Civil society groups have called on the government to “abolish slave compounds.”Kheng, however, said the man had simply had his blood drawn at a hospital for testing and made up the story. read more https://vodenglish.news/sar-kheng-asked-china-to-fix-public-opinion-about-blood-slave/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
