An investigating judge at the Phnom Penh Municipal Court issued two separate warrants on February 27, ordering the detention of two Chinese men in connection with aggravated fraud as an organised group.
The Chinese nationals, identified as Wang Zongging and Liu Dinghua, were ordered by investigating judge So Samnang to be sent to Prey Sar. They were arrested at a house in Phnom Penh’s Borey Elysee, in Tonle Bassac commune, for criminal offenses punishable under Article 380 of the Criminal Code.
According to the Ministry of Justice, Cambodian courts have implemented legal procedures in cases related to online fraud to punish more than 500 scam ringleaders and their accomplices, including cases involving Chen Zhi case, Oknha Li Kuong and other foreign ringleaders.
