Chinese National Found Dead in Poipet in Execution-Style Murder

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Cambodia News: In the early morning hours of Novemeber 7, a tale of brutality came to light in Poipet City, as police responded to the grim discovery of a deceased 30-year-old Chinese national. The body was found in a white Lexus 330, parked at the International Tourist bus station in Poipet, located in Andong Thmor Meas village, Sangkat Phsar Kandal.

The man had been brutally murdered, evident from multiple gunshot wounds. His life was tragically ended with four shots: a fatal one to the back of the head, another piercing his right eye, and a third travelling from his left eyebrow to the right.

Examination disclosed a disturbing reality; the body, swollen and discolored, suggested that the murder may have taken place two nights prior.

A comprehensive site investigation by the police confirmed that the horrific incident unfolded inside the car, as evidenced by the two bullet shells discovered in the vehicle. The event occurred around the area of Wat Prachea Thom, Sangkat Phsar Kandal.

The local authorities are relentlessly pursuing leads to uncover the motive behind the senseless murder and locate the assailant. A robust investigation is underway to ensure that those responsible for this heinous act will face justice.

How do they surmise it was a “senseless murder “ if they are pursuing leads and the investigation has only just begun ?

Those are some serious adjectives right there, but I do feel like they left out the fourth shot.

It sounds like someone trying to write a crime novel or screenplay.
