PHNOM PENH — Dozens of suspected global scam compounds in Cambodia are still in operation despite a months-long crackdown by authorities, Amnesty International said in a report on Monday. Of 86 sites identified as scam centres, the government had intervened at only 24 locations, the UK-based human rights group said in the 176-page report.
"Many of those (interventions) were often reactive, ineffective or undermined by apparent collusion between compound managers and police, with survivors reporting being moved across the country mid-crackdown to evade authorities," the report said. The government in Phnom Penh rejected Amnesty's findings.
