A man was arrested in Prey Veng province’s Pea Reang district on Tuesday for allegedly coercing 30 villagers to work on fishing vessels in Thailand and Malaysia.

According to the police report, Sim Soeung, 35, a resident of Pea Reang district, trafficked more than 30 men into abusive and unpaid fishing jobs between 2010 and 2014, with the promise the work would bring in a monthly salary of $250.

“In fact, the victim did not get any salary and they were mistreated, and over-worked for long hours with no rest,” the police report reads, noting: “All of them were rescue by the embassy and sent back to their homeland.”
