AUTHORITIES in Cambodia have since located a woman in China who pleaded for help on social media after she was allegedly deceived.

Reports in the Phnom Penh Post said the woman appealed to Prime Minister HE via Facebook earlier this week.

She claimed she was duped into working in China and Cambodian authorities plan to repatriate her at the end of this month.

Director of the National Police's Anti-Human Trafficking and Juvenile Protection Department, Chiv Pally, said police are intervening to release her to stay temporarily at the Cambodian Consulate General in Shanghai.

"Authorities contacted a Facebook account by the name of Rina Rina asking for information about the woman, where she is staying, and her relatives' contact number in Cambodia," he said.

Phally said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation played a key role in the investigation.

The ministry reported that the Cambodia General Consulate in Shanghai worked with Chinese authorities to rescue the woman.
