In another swift move, the police made further arrests, bringing the total number of individuals connected to JPEX, including employees and social media influencers, to 72. According to Police Commissioner Raymond Siu, more than 2,600 individuals suffered losses estimated to be US$206 million due to their involvement with JPEX.&nbsp;
