Thai police from the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Division (ATPD) have arrested a Chinese man who is alleged to be a leading member of a multi-national organised crime gang, which lures job seekers in Thailand to work as call centre scammers in Myanmar.

 

The Chinese man was identified as Hwang Tian-yong, aka “Ar Yong”, 31. He was initially charged with human trafficking by conspiring with more than three people to commit the offences.

 

ATPD police said that key members of the gang include three Chinese, one Malaysian, one Filipino, three Myanmar nationals and 11 Thais, allegedly with Ar Yong and another Chinese national as gang leaders and financiers.
