The MPS hailed the extradition of Liu as a “success” in law enforcement cooperation with Cambodia.
Chen, the MPS said, had directed Liu and others to establish the Jin Bei Group in Cambodia in 2016, with the company operating “telecom fraud parks” in the country and committing “large-scale telecom and online fraud involving massive sums of money”.
Liu is also suspected of involvement in serious violent crimes, including “illegal detention and intentional injury”, the MPS added.
He is “currently being subjected to compulsory measures in accordance with the law”, and the case is under investigation.
In April, the China-born former boss of a financial services firm, Li Xiong, accused by the United States of laundering illicit funds for North Korean and Southeast Asia-based cybercriminals, was extradited from Cambodia.
