The police have launched an investigation after a man in his twenties who traveled to Cambodia has been out of contact for two months. It was reported that during his last phone call with his family in August, the man said, "Please save me."

According to the Gwangju Police Station on October 13, a man in his twenties, identified as Mr. A, who lives in Gwangsan-gu, Gwangju, has gone missing after leaving for Cambodia.

On June 26, Mr. A told his family he would go abroad to earn money and departed for Thailand. Later, during a phone call with his family on August 10, he quietly said, "Please save me." After his family reported him missing, Mr. A's last known location was confirmed to be Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

The police requested the local embassy to verify Mr. A's whereabouts through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but his location has not been confirmed as of now. Believing there is a possibility that Mr. A may have been detained by a criminal organization involved in phone fraud or similar crimes, the police are conducting an investigation.

A police official stated, "We have not been able to confirm how Mr. A traveled to Cambodia, but we did verify that he was in Cambodia just before he went missing through his mobile phone connection records," adding, "We will request cooperation from the local police to determine his whereabouts."
