Cambodian police said Thursday they arrested 57 South Korean nationals over alleged links to an online scam organization in the Southeast Asian country. The arrests happened on Wednesday as police raided a building on the outskirts of the capital, Phnom Penh. Police found 86 people working at the complex, including 57 South Koreans and 29 Chinese, according to a statement Thursday by Cambodia’s Secretariat of the Commission for Combating Online Scams. A visiting group of South Korean lawmakers accompanied the raid. The delegation, led by Kim Seok-ki, arrived in Cambodia on Tuesday as part of an on-site parliamentary inspection into reports of alleged employment scams, illegal confinement and torture of South Korean nationals in Cambodia. It is the second recent delegation from South Korea to visit Cambodia after a group last week led by Vice Foreign Minister Kim Jina.
