China and Cambodia Collaborate in Arresting Gambling and Fraud Suspects

In a coordinated effort between Chinese and Cambodian authorities, 135 individuals suspected of involvement in gambling and fraud were flown from Cambodia to Wuhan Tianhe International Airport in Hubei province, central China. This marks the latest development in a series of extradition operations, with over 680 Chinese nationals suspected of gambling-related offenses returned from Cambodia thus far in 2024.

Chinese public security agencies have been actively pursuing the extradition of suspects involved in gambling and fraud from various countries, including Myanmar, the Philippines, and the United Arab Emirates. These efforts have dealt significant blows to transnational criminal networks seeking to establish illicit gambling operations within China.

The collaboration between Chinese and Cambodian law enforcement agencies reflects a mutual commitment to combatting cross-border gambling activities, which are treated as serious crimes in both nations. Perpetrators face severe legal consequences, including lengthy prison sentences, underscoring the gravity with which such offenses are regarded by authorities in both countries.
