The Government of India has reported that over 5,000 Indians are allegedly trapped in Cambodia, forced into cyber fraud activities targeting individuals in India, resulting in losses of at least Rs 500 crore in the past six months. The Ministry of Home Affairs has convened meetings with government agencies and security experts to devise a rescue strategy.

Efforts to rescue victims have begun, with some successfully brought back to India, while authorities plan to involve Interpol in apprehending key perpetrators involved in the scam.
