So I'm pretty sure to know his two nieces and their mother (well-known in SR nightlife, but under another name) who is always looking for money.
I don't know what happened, allegations may be right. Or just a money affair between adults...
True. Some European guy did. OK. Benefit of the doubt time. Her sister may have been the Black Sheep of the family. But as Johnny Appleseed (might have) once said, "The apples don't fall far from the tree."
I'm not prepared to burn Watkin at the stake, until I see evidence that would stand up in an international court.

In the comments section of the thread the man was described by some as harmless but by some as a scammer and a drug user. Claims which could be completely unwarranted. True or not it realty didn't help his cause when it came to contract renewal time. The thread also contained some unfortunately staged photos of him and some of his students in Cambodia.
I was thinking exactly the same thing.

Cambodia's Bureau of Anti-Human Trafficking and Juvenile Protection has charged British man Matthew William Watkin for the sexual assault of two minors. Watkin was arrested in Siem Reap on Wednesday, following a complaint from the girls' mother. Police are investigating the allegations while Watkin remains in police custody.
The 37-year-old from Shrewsbury had moved to Cambodia to teach children English. He and his wife had been living in the Siem Reap district for several months. The two unnamed girls aged 13 and 17 spent the night at the couple's home. After they returned home, their mother alleged that Watkin had abused her daughters.
On Monday, the woman filed a complaint with the police. The case was reported to Kert Vannareth, a prosecutor of the Siem Reap Provincial Court. After conducting a preliminary investigation, the police arrested the British man.
On Wednesday night at 11:55 pm local time, Watkin was taken into police custody. Watkin faces sexual assault charges by the Bureau of Anti-Human Trafficking and Juvenile Protection. When questioned, Watkin stated that he had merely kissed the girls goodnight. He pointed out that when kissing them on their forehead, his stubble rubbed against their face. He denied having sex with the girls.

almost sounds like a setup. I don't understand how their mother would let them stay the night with them, him and his wife. Strange situation,CEOCambodiaNews wrote: ↑Fri May 22, 2020 10:20 pm British teacher arrested for alleged sexual assault of two teens in Cambodia

Exactly! I have always done this In Cambodia specifically this reason.
Re: British Teacher MATTHEW WILLIAM WATKIN Arrested; Accused of Sexual Assault in Siem Reap, Cambodia
reminds me of when I looked after my friend's kids, and when she came home the 2 lads were cuddled up to me on the sofa watching cartoons.
seems I should be thankful my friend was a good woman and not a total **** like the mother in question here is.
as for those questioning a guy kissing his niece/step-daughter on the head (as asserted by the guy), what gives you the right to judge whether that was suitable in the context of their family relationship ?
