A Cambodian court has sentenced six Chinese nationals to life imprisonment, following their conviction for torturing and murdering a South Korean student involved in a notorious scam centre, a court official revealed on Wednesday.

The student's brutal death last August ignited a diplomatic uproar with South Korea, leading to travel bans, sanctions, and collaborative crackdowns on these centres accused of enslaving workers and defrauding billions globally.

Authorities in various Southeast Asian nations face increasing pressure to dismantle these fraudulent operations run by Chinese criminal syndicates, which exploit and abuse trafficked workers. International efforts are intensifying, aiming to protect millions of potential fraud victims worldwide.
