On October 8, 2024, Immigration Police in Sa Kaeo received 193 Thai nationals who had been deported from Cambodia following a crackdown on online scam and transnational call‑center gangs. Senior officials, including the Immigration Bureau chief and regional commanders, oversaw the operation at the Ban Khlong Luek permanent border crossing in Aranyaprathet district.
