Tay Ninh (VNA) – Cambodian authorities and the Vietnamese Embassy in the country on July 16 and 17 handed over 45 citizens, identified by Cambodia as illegal residents, to the Border Guard Station at the Moc Bai International Border Gate in the southern province of Tay Ninh.

After receiving the deported group, the Border Guard Station and other relevant forces identified their personal background.

The group comprises 35 men and 10 women, hailing from Ninh Binh, Hai Phong, Ho Chi Minh City, Tay Ninh, Thai Nguyen, Lam Dong, Dong Nai, An Giang, Dak Lak, Tuyen Quang, Gia Lai and Ca Mau.

Among them, one was banned from leaving Vietnam; and six others have criminal records related to crimes such as fraud, extortion, illegal drug storage, gambling, robbery, and theft.

Most of them were lured to Cambodia with the promise of well-paid but easy jobs through social networks.

They were forced to work for companies operating online scam schemes. Their daily work was mainly using fake platforms to scam people in Vietnam. Those who failed to satisfy requests and meet targets, or intended to escape were beaten, detained, tortured, and threatened by the scam organisations.

The case is under further investigation./.
