Woman Found Dead in Lake; Friend Sought by Police

by Phan Soumy | July 21, 2016

Vendors found a 23-year-old woman’s submerged body a few meters from the bamboo picnic bungalow where she had been relaxing with a friend at a resort on Tonle Bati lake on Wednesday, police said.

Chea Socheat’s throat had been cut three times, and her female friend is being sought by police, said Ngann Sary, police chief of Takeo province’s Bati district.

Vendors at the Tonle Bati Resort in Kraing Thnong commune had gone looking for Chea Socheat at about 10 a.m. after noticing blood on the mat in the bungalow, he said.

“The tool that was used to slice the victim’s throat wasn’t found at the scene. However, we assume the victim’s throat was slit with a knife,” Mr. Sary said.

It was the "man" of the relationship who did the killing.

Another bizarre murder case. Apparently, nothing to do with passion or jealousy, just greed and stupidity. The woman who was, or was not her lover, brutally murdered her "friend" with an axe in a public place, and then stole her motorbike and all her possessions and went off to NagaWorld to gamble. (As you do.)

But this is of course the police version of events, and perhaps they prefer it to be a robbery, rather than admit this was a crime of passion between two women. Whatever the motive, taking an axe to a picnic spot sounds awfully like premeditation.

Woman Confesses to Murdering Friend for Property
by Phan Soumy | July 26, 2016 |

A woman arrested on Monday over the murder of her friend in a bungalow on Tonle Bati lake confessed to attacking her with a cleaver so she could steal her property, which included a motorbike, police said.

Sat Makara, 25, was arrested at about 3:50 p.m. near Tani market in Kampot province, said Ngann Sary, the police chief of Bati district in Takeo province, where the murder took place.

Phone records and a friend helped trace Ms. Makara, who is accused of slashing the throat of Chea Socheat, 23, a contract officer for the department of tourism in Kandal province, on Wednesday and pushing her body into the lake near the bungalow where they were relaxing, Mr. Sary said.

Ms. Makara, who had known the victim for about a year, pawned Chea Socheat’s motorbike for $350 and used the money to gamble at NagaWorld casino in Phnom Penh, Mr. Sary said.

She also said she had pilfered the victim’s iPhone and platinum jewelry.

“She confessed to the crime” Mr. Sary said. “She killed the victim with a cleaver and later threw it into the water.”

At least she looks remorseful:

I'm no expert, but those look like knife wounds rather than cleaver chops. It always amazes me how ham-fisted criminals are here. The police aren't exactly that well trained in regards to investigating crimes, but these moron criminals just leave themselves wide open.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Murder Suspect Jailed After Escaping From Angry Mob

BY PHAN SOUMY | JULY 29, 2016

A 25-year-old woman was charged with premeditated murder in Takeo province on Thursday morning after confessing to the murder of her friend last week, but only after escaping an angry mob while attempting to re-enact the crime.

Sat Makara was arrested in neighboring Kampot province on Monday afternoon, five days after she allegedly cut the throat of her friend Chea Socheat, 23, an employee of the provincial tourism department.


The victim’s body was found submerged in the Tonle Bati lake on Wednesday a few meters from a picnic bungalow she and Ms. Makara had been relaxing in earlier that day. Her throat had been slit three times, police said, and Ms. Makara later confessed to killing her friend in order to pawn her motorbike for $350 and sell her jewelry for $125.
