geovalin Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 BANGKOK — Fifty-nine Thais were removed from scam operations in Cambodia in simultaneous raids on two compounds this week — including 40 from the Kandal facility where Vietnamese nationals last month made a dramatic escape swimming across a river, Thai police said Friday. One of the raids occurred at a scam hotspot Sihanoukville, where 19 people were rounded up working for an investment fraud scheme causing damage over 50 million baht, or about $1.4 million. Another 40 were arrested from a phone scam operation in Chrey Thom, Kandal province, that had caused damage of approximately over 100 million baht, about $2.7 million. Both raids took place on Monday. Thai deputy police commissioner Damrongsak Kittiprapat said in a press conference in Bangkok that the raids were a satisfying result following an agreement recently signed by both Thai and Cambodian officials aiming to increase cooperation between the two countries as scam-related crime spiked. read more https://vodenglish.news/40-thais-removed-from-kandal-river-escape-casino/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
