Official reasons
- The Secretary of State considers that there are reasonable grounds to suspect that WANG Xiaoyan ('WANG') is an involved person within the meaning of the Global Human Rights Sanctions Regulations 2020 on the basis of the following grounds: (1) WANG is associated with a person who is or has been responsible for, engaging in, facilitating or providing support for human rights abuses, namely her spouse ZHU Zhongbiao; (2) WANG is or has been involved in profiting financially from human rights abuses. Specifically, ZHU is or has been involved in the operation of scam centres in Cambodia, including through the Jin Bei group of companies. The treatment of individuals in these scam centres amounts to a serious abuse of the right not to be subjected to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, and of the right to be free from slavery, not to be held in servitude or required to perform forced or compulsory labour.
