Seventy-three suspected Chinese mafia members were arrested at the weekend after allegedly extorting money from people in China using internet phone calls. Immigration investigation chief Lieutenant General Uk Haisela said the arrests followed an Interpol report filed by Chinese police.

 

The report said the suspects pretended to be Chinese police, judges, prosecutors or bankers and had phoned people in China to threaten and extort money from them. The suspects allegedly used voice over internet protocol (VoIP) phones to call from Cambodia.

 

Lt Gen Haisela said the arrests, which included 21 women, were made on Saturday. Thirty-five suspects were arrested in Phnom Penh and in Kandal province, while 38 were arrested in Kampot province.
