China, Thai police jointly arrest suspects in missing people cases

(Corrects paragraph 2 spelling of "security")

BEIJING (Reuters) - Chinese and Thai police have jointly arrested 12 domestic and foreign criminal suspects in scam operations that led to Chinese nationals going missing and getting trapped, the Asian giant said on Friday.

In a statement, China's state security ministry vowed to keep up a "high-pressure crackdown" on cross-border telecoms network fraud.

On Thursday, Foreign Minister Wang Yi urged crackdowns by Southeast Asian nations on online gambling and telecom fraud, adding that a slew of such cases on the Thai-Myanmar border threatened and harmed citizens of China and other countries.
