A black man's dead body was found on the sand and appears to be a criminal case

Phnom Penh, Cambodia: A black man's dead body was found on a sand, 60 meters from the street at 8:10pm on February 25, 2016 at Prek Tayorv village, Chak Ongreler commune, Mean Jey district.

According to Koh Santepheap Daily News, the police think it might be murder because the man has injuries to his head.

According to statements from residents in that area, the man's dead body was found when they looked for the source of a foul smell.

Police say the corpse is of a black men of African descent who appears to be about 30 years old, wearing black shoes, plaid shirts and a red t-shirt.

At this stage the body of the man has not been identified. They can only assume foul play and not accidental death because of the injuries to his head. However, the police need to do an autopsy to make sure before they can be sure about the cause of death.

Rare to see the Nigerians turn on eachother here and leave the evidence so openly. Usually they are smart enough to maintian a low local profile, or at least remove the body from public view.

By low local profile, your definitely not talking about the dozen or so that hang in and about the '' Happy Girls " [ beside Larry's ] late every night, till early morning selling ???????? and talking at the top of their voice on mobile phones
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.

I meant keeping their rivalries and turf-wars and revenge of personal grudges off the front pages in order to not draw undue police attention. I didn't say they were trying not to be seen in public at all.
