Chinese Gang Kidnaps and Beats 2 Chinese Men in Sihanoukvillle

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.

I thought about it after I wrote it and realized it's probably because there are few westerners worth kidnapping anyway.
There was the guy in the suitcase.

A few years back the cry in Snooky was "The Russians are coming! The Russians are coming!" I thought they were digging in, buying up property. But after some factional warring they seemed to have disappeared. Here's hoping history will repeat with the new gangsters.

The two parties were working for rival online casinos.

Beach town brawl Ten held in kidnapping attempt
22 June 2018
Preah Sihanouk police on Thursday sent 10 Chinese nationals to pretrial detention after they reportedly beat up two of their countrymen unconscious and tried to kidnap them.

Soth Sam Un, chief of the provincial minor crime bureau, said the suspects were online staff at Di Hao Casino in Sihanoukville. They were arrested on Tuesday afternoon after beating two other Chinese men, who were online staff at New Golden Wealth casino, and trying to kidnap them.

The suspects drove to the victims’ place of work in a van, and upon arrival targeted the two men, beat them and bundled them into their van. After seeing the incident, security guards phoned the police, who gave chase and pulled them over.
