Seventy-eight Taiwan residents and 51 mainlanders suspected of involvement in telephone fraud were repatriated to Guangzhou, Guangdong province, from the Republic of Armenia earlier this month, police said on Thursday.

It is the largest number of Taiwan suspects involved in phone fraud to be repatriated to the mainland in a single case, said Liang Ruiguo, deputy director of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Guangdong provincial Department of Public Security.
