BANGKOK, Nov 10 — A tycoon linked to illegal scam hub operations on the Thai-Myanmar border will be extradited to face criminal charges in China, a court in Bangkok ordered on Monday.<\/p>\n

Chinese businessman She Zhijiang, 43, has been in a detention in Thailand since 2022, fighting an extradition request from Beijing over his mega projects and gambling ventures in Shwe Kokko, Myanmar.<\/p>\n

He holds Cambodian citizenship and has been on the run from Chinese authorities since 2012, according to Chinese media reports.<\/p>\n

In its final ruling on the case, an appeals court in Bangkok said in a statement Monday that it upheld an order for She’s extradition to China “within 90 days”.<\/p>\n

She and his company Yatai have been slapped with sanctions by Britain and the United States.<\/p>\n

The US Treasury said in September that Shwe Kokko was a “resort city custom built for gambling, drug trafficking, prostitution, and scams targeting people around the world”.<\/p>\n

An Interpol red notice published May 2021 and obtained by AFP says She is facing criminal charges in China related to running online gambling and fraud operations.<\/p>\n

In pleas written from a Bangkok prison and seen by AFP, She has denied all allegations of criminality and insisted his company was simply an “urban developer”.<\/p>\n

Sprawling fraud factories have boomed in war-torn Myanmar’s loosely governed border regions, housing mostly Chinese workers targeting unsuspecting internet users with romance and business cons worth tens of billions of dollars annually.<\/p>\n

Shwe Kokko, one of the most notorious scam compounds in the region, is a gleaming built-up city visible across the river from Thailand’s western border.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month China sentenced five people to death for their involvement in a violent criminal gang with fraud operations in Myanmar’s Kokang region. — AFP <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
