geovalin Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 PHNOM PENH, Cambodia -- Nineteen Japanese men detained in Cambodia in January on suspicion of taking part in organized phone and online scams will be deported to their homeland, a Cambodian immigration police officer said Friday. Arrangements for their return are being made by the Japanese Embassy in Cambodia, but so far no date has been set, Immigration Police spokesperson Gen. Keo Vanthan told The Associated Press. Japanese public broadcaster NHK reported Friday that Tokyo police have obtained arrest warrants for the 19 Japanese on suspicion of running phone scams from Cambodia targeting people in Japan. NHK said Cambodian authorities who searched the men’s hotel rooms “discovered a list of Japanese citizens believed to be targets in a fraud scheme.” The 19 were taken into custody in the southern city of Sihanoukville on Jan. 24 and sent to the capital, Phnom Penh, where they were held after investigation by the interior ministry. read more https://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory/cambodia-deport-19-japanese-cybercrime-scam-suspects-98427132 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuskerDo2 Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Why would they deport them so they can renew their criminal activity? Leave them in jail for 25 years where they belong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
