HCMC Police said that that was the fourth round of deportations from the beginning of 2022. The above subjects are all Chinese nationals and were tricked into a job scam.

This group of people illegally entered Vietnam through unofficial channels in the Northern provinces. Next, they moved to HCMC by coach. However, in HCMC, this group of people was not received, was cut off from contact with their relatives, and lived on the streets in the area.

Some subjects went to the police station to report and receive support. The remaining subjects sought jobs but could not find any jobs in the city and were discovered and arrested by the authorities.

After completing the procedures, these 12 subjects were expelled and returned to the Chinese authorities at Huu Nghi Border Gate in Lang Son Province.

Currently, HCMC Police continue to investigate and handle brokers and organizations that smuggle foreigners into the area illegally.

From the beginning of 2022 to now, the unit has deported a total of 59 foreigners who entered the country illegally.
