Indian Embassy in Laos rescued 47 Indian nationals who were trapped in cyber scam centers located in the Golden Triangle Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Bokeo province.
Indian Embassy in Laos said that 29 individuals were handed over by Laos authorities following a crackdown on illegal activities in the SEZ, while the remaining 18 approached the Embassy directly.
Indian Ambassador to Laos, Prashant Agrawal, met with the rescued group upon their arrival in Vientiane to discuss the challenges they faced and outline the next steps. Meanwhile, the Embassy has completed all necessary procedural requirements with the Laos authorities for the repatriation of these individuals.
