The Kandy District Crime Investigation Unit arrested 130 Chinese nationals, including 22 women, during a raid at a five-star hotel in Kundasale for their alleged involvement in online fraud.
Several suspects evaded arrest.
The police seized 123 laptops, 206 smartphones, 20 desktop computers, and other equipment used for cybercrimes.
The group had occupied 47 rooms in the hotel, with the police searching extensively to apprehend the suspects.
They were unable to justify their stay at the hotel during preliminary investigations and were to be presented before the Theldeniya Magistrate.
