A joint South Korean investigation team has arrested 26 people over scam crimes involving sexual exploitation in Cambodia, in cooperation with local authorities. The suspects deceived Korean victims into believing they were implicated in crimes, extorting 26.7 billion won and forcing female victims to produce explicit videos. The government plans to block the videos' circulation and repatriate the suspects for punishment.
The Seoul High Court upheld a life sentence on April 29 for Kim Nok-wan, leader of the Telegram-based 'Vigilante' sex exploitation ring. Kim committed crimes against 261 victims from May 2020 to January 2025.
