Chinese-born businessman She Zhijiang has been extradited from Thailand to Nanjing, China, to face charges including money laundering. Authorities in both the United States and China have alleged that he operated one of Southeast Asia's largest scam compounds. His extradition follows his arrest in Thailand three years prior, and his arrival in China occurred on Wednesday.
Mr. She is regarded as one of the most prominent figures linked to the scam industry to be charged in China, which has recently launched an intensified crackdown to rescue individuals allegedly trafficked into forced scamming operations in Southeast Asia. This industry, largely concentrated in Southeast Asia, is believed to have defrauded victims globally of billions of dollars, prompting collaborative efforts from countries such as China and the United States to combat it.
