BEIJING, December 25 (Xinhua) — A total of 952 Chinese nationals suspected of telecom fraud were returned to China following a recent joint operation by law enforcement agencies from China, Myanmar, and Thailand in Myanmar's Myawaddy Prefecture, the Ministry of Public Security (MPS) announced Thursday.

Criminal groups in Myawaddy have long been engaged in telecommunications and online fraud, targeting Chinese citizens and causing serious losses. Earlier this year, China, Myanmar, and Thailand established a trilateral coordination mechanism to combat such crimes and subsequently conducted a series of operations to disrupt the activities of these criminal groups.

According to the ISS statistics, over 7,600 Chinese citizens suspected of organizing online gambling and telecommunications fraud have been returned from Myawaddy to China since the beginning of this year.

The Ministry of Defense emphasized that it will strengthen cross-border cooperation between law enforcement agencies to combat telecommunications and online fraud in order to effectively protect the safety of people's lives and property.
