BUSTED: 32yo American woman arrested for drug-trafficking at Phnom Penh airport.

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Yeah, well Richard, the point I was trying to make was that if she had bothered to put that stash in that huge snatch she probably would've gotten away with it.

Turns out they were packages that were in the lining of her suitcase. I thought they looked a bit flat.

The Thai chick doesn't look fat:

It appears that she might be a scammer though:

Haha. Good find. She's a professional. My guess is that she and the Nigerian were in Cambodia to organise the onward trip and reception of the drugs in Thailand.
It doesn't say that here, but most of these drug busts at Cambodian airports from South America seem to come from international cooperation and tip offs - notably from the US.

As for the guy who wanted to buy some vanilla from her, (see the link), he might have to wait awhile to get a refund. :(
