Sihanoukville Provincial Television, September 16 — Phnom Penh police raided the seven-storey HANA condominium in Sen Sok district at 1pm yesterday. The building was suspected of housing an online-scam operation and foreign nationals living there unlawfully.
Police detained 48 suspects, including 10 women, of four nationalities: 33 South Koreans, including five women; one Nepalese man; one Bangladeshi man; and 13 Cambodians, including five women.
Police also seized items linked to the suspected fraud, including 60 computers, three safes and 35 passports. All suspects and the seized items have been handed to Phnom Penh Municipal Police for further legal procedures.
The Cambodian government launched a nationwide anti-online-scam campaign on July 14, 2025. The multi-agency operation aims to curb telecommunications and online fraud and maintain national security and public order.
Police stressed that they would take strict legal action against organisers and others involved to dismantle online-scam networks.
