Another 56 Thais have safely returned from Cambodia where they were duped into working for a call centre gang and held for ransom, according to police.
The latest group of Thais, all victims of an employment scam, crossed the Thai-Cambodian friendship bridge at the Klong Luek checkpoint in Sa Kaeo after they were handed over by Cambodian authorities Wednesday afternoon.
Thailand's assistant national police chief, Pol Lt Gen Surachate Hakparn, who also serves as deputy director of the Royal Thai Police's women and children protection and anti-human trafficking centre, was on hand to meet them.
