A total of 27 foreign nationals who were involved in telecom fraud and other criminal activities have been repatriated from Myanmar to their respective countries.

The group includes 21 Chinese and two Nepalis, two Indians and one Nigerian national who had illegally entered Myanmar through border routes, conducting online gambling, online scams, and other criminal acts. The repatriation process was carried out in accordance with the law and international cooperation, prioritizing humanitarian considerations and fostering friendly relations between countries.

In order to quickly repatriate these foreign nationals to their respective countries, the departmental officials are conducting the necessary personal information and record collection work, and are being closely monitored and coordinated by Lt-Col San Shwe, a member of the Myawady District Administration and Management Committee, and officials.

The Myanmar government continues to actively identify, apprehend, and take strong action against foreigners involved in online scam centres and other criminal networks. Myanmar collaborates closely with neighbouring countries, regional partners, and international organizations to ensure effective law enforcement.
