The police force in Ho Chi Minh City on August 18 handed over a
44-year-old Korean man, who was wanted by his country police, the RoK
Police.
Representatives from the Republic of Korea (RoK)’s
Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh expressed their thanks for assistance
from Vietnam ’s policemen in arresting the fraud criminal.
Cha
Je Kiy was arrested by police in Ho Chi Minh City one day earlier.
According to the RoK police’s record, Cha and his accomplice Nam Kuk
Heon swindled 139 people in the RoK for 678,000 USD in 2006.
After these frauds, both fled to Vietnam and established a business to conceal their identity.
In July 2009 due to visa expiry, they returned to the RoK and
continued with their frauds before flying back to Vietnam in
February 2010.
In April 2010, RoK Interpol sent an official
letter to ask the Vietnamese Police to help arrest the criminals. Short
after, Cha’s accomplice, Nam Kuk Heon, was also arrested in Ho Chi
Minh City and handed over to the RoK police.
After fleeing to
Vietnam , Cha was reported to live without marriage with a woman in
Phuoc Long A ward, district 9 of HCM City and have a four-year-old
child. He always changed his residence in HCM City ’s districts 2,
4 and 9 to avoid the police’s watch./.
