IBNS-CMEDIA: Cambodian authorities have extradited 130 Chinese nationals for their alleged involvement in cybercrimes, online fraud and illegal gambling.

Lieutenant General Sok Somnea, Spokesman and Deputy Director General of the GDI, was quoted as saying by Khmer Times, “130 Chinese nationals were extradited on April 13, for their involvement in cybercrimes, online fraud and illegal gambling.”

“We are still looking for more of those involved in these crimes and I cannot go into more detail, as it is under investigation by the Immigration Police,” he said.

He said the seized servers, computers, mobile phones, SIM cards and other equipment were believed to have been used for criminal activities.

He said they have been sent to court as evidence.

The Cambodian authorities are working closely with their Chinese counterparts to exchange information on the investigation, crackdown and rescue of victims of cybercrime, he said.
