Individuals who operated an illegal gambling site worth trillions of won from overseas have been apprehended and extradited to South Korea following a joint government investigation.
The government's joint task force on transnational crime announced today, July 4, that two ringleaders of the gambling site were captured in the United Arab Emirates and brought back to the country.
They are accused of operating illegal gambling sites with bases in Southeast Asia, including the Philippines, laundering the proceeds of their crimes, and mobilizing teenagers to assist in their operations.
The government stated, "We will continue to track down and apprehend those who flee overseas to commit crimes until the very end."
