Maj Gen Nat Sri-in, commander of the Suranaree Task Force, said on Sunday that about 30 Cambodian officials launched the rescue operation after Thai officials received a phone call for help last Thursday from one of the Thai victims lured into working for a call scam gang in Oddar Meanchey.

According to the commander, the 19 rescued people were among about 50 lured to work at a call scam centre run by Taiwanese people. The centre was at a casino complex situated near the Chong Chom border pass in Kap Choeng district of Surin province.
