Beijing (MidLand) – China’s Ministry of Public Security announced on Monday (September 30) that 313 Chinese citizens suspected of being involved in cross-border telecom fraud have been handed over from Myanmar to China.
This is the result of a joint Chinese and Burmese police operation aimed at cracking down on telecommunications and internet fraud in northern Myanmar.
A total of 870 suspects involved in cross-border telecom fraud were arrested in the operation, including 313 Chinese citizens and 557 Myanmar nationals, the ministry said in a statement.
Last March, Chinese and Burmese police conducted their first joint law enforcement operation in Myanmar’s Muse area and managed to arrest more than 800 telecom fraud suspects.
The ministry said it will strengthen law enforcement cooperation with Myanmar police and conduct regular joint operations to combat telecommunications and internet fraud involving Chinese citizens in northern Myanmar.
In May, the ministry said that since July 2023, Myanmar had handed over 49,000 internet and telecommunications fraud suspects to Chinese detention.
