Ca Mau Provincial Police are actively seeking victims in a human trafficking operation that lured individuals to Cambodia for forced labor. Investigations reveal that between October 2023 and the end of 2024, suspects Nguyแป n Thร nh Chรขn, Ngรด Thแป Giang, and Ngรด Vฤn Tiแบฟn allegedly deceived many people.
These individuals were promised lucrative jobs in Singapore, specifically in the furniture and interior design sectors, with monthly salaries ranging from 30 to 50 million Vietnamese dong. However, upon arrival in Cambodia, they were reportedly handed over to a company engaged in online fraud.
Authorities believe that more victims may not have come forward or been identified.
