Illegal immigration con-artist jailed
VNA (Hanoi)
A 38 year old fraudster who organised illegal immigration into Cambodia from Vietnam was sentenced to two years in prison, by the Kon Tum provincial court, on April 13.
A Kak and nine other Central Highlands residents were arrested by Cambodian police in O Ya Dao district, on December 30, 2006 and extradited to Vietnam later.
On January 5, 2007, A Kak was prosecuted by Kon Tum province’s police for “masterminding illegal immigrations.”
He pleaded guilty to immigration fraud and admitted that he had organised cross-border migration for people through jungle tracks. Kak also admitted that he had duped his unsuspecting victims by promising well-paid jobs for them once they arrived in Cambodia and charged a brokerage fee of between 2 and VND 3 million for each victim.
The court also ordered Kak to pay VND 6 million in restitution to his victims.
