240 Chinese suspects repatriated from Cambodia

As many as 240 Chinese suspects involved in gambling and fraud have been repatriated from Cambodia to China, in the latest efforts by both countries to combat cross-border crimes.

Escorted by Chinese police, the suspects arrived in Taiyuan, Shanxi province, on Thursday on three civilian charter flights in the second joint repatriation of Chinese suspects by Chinese and Cambodian police, China's Ministry of Public Security said in a news release.

Cambodian police recently seized a park involved in gambling and fraud in the country's capital Phnom Penh, and captured hundreds of suspects from a number of countries.
