Drowned Woman Found on Riverside

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.

They used to drag bodies up to the top area and leave them there for hours for people to gawk at.

If you look at the stain at the back of the head, it could be miscontrued as blood, but having visually seen it, it looked more like frothy bile/sick. I dont know but i think she may have been alive when pulled to the side and was sick when maybe someone tried to revive her or someone else was sick next to her. I dont know. When i got there she was left alone there and dozens of people were taking fotos including what looked lkke reporters. I saw an ambulance turn up, do nothing then leave after maybe 25 minutes, and return maybe an hour or so later. After 2 hours i left mekong river restaraunt which is where i was sat initially. The body was still there, finally covered up, but hadnt been removed by anyone. Nor did any official person look interested.

Well that's super depressing, I guess our foreign skin will prevent that from somewhat happening to us.. RIP to her, she was someone's baby once upon a time

I don't understand all the name calling on here, not only in this thread, but so many others.

Grow up people!

So I'll ask again, "Why would you even need to add the photo to that story? The woman is dead, but you asked for the photo, does it add to the content, like it somehow explains something"?
Photos are always helpful so that the armchair medical examiners on here can then offer their opinions about how the person really died.

As a new member, you probably don't realise that there are members on here who like to look at pictures of dead bodies, as completely bizarre as it sounds to most people

Perhaps they have been in Cambodia too long, and acquired the local populations vivid interest in looking at & taking pictures/videos of dead bodies, as a form of entertainment

UPDATE
Cambodia News, (Phnom Penh): A woman brought food to her husband, who was a security guard at a construction site near the river, and the two also drank alcohol together before she died at 1:20 pm on June 5, 2021, on the riverfront in Phsar Kandal I, Daun Penh, Phnom Penh.

According to the woman's husband, prior to the incident, his wife had brought him food and rice wine at a construction site along Preah Sovath Road in Phsar Kandal I, Daun Penh district. They shared the meal, then suddenly, after a while, his wife said she was too hot and would take a bath by the river. After his wife had been missing for over half an hour, he became concerned and went to look for her, only to find that his wife had drowned on the river bank.

After receiving the information, the police arrived at the above location and contacted the forensic experts of the Phnom Penh Municipal Police to examine the body, which confirmed that she died due to drowning. The body was handed over to the family for a traditional ceremony. RIP.

Now that’s strange. The husband found his wife drowned and didn’t feel compelled to either stay with her body or to cover it up in any way.
she was quite pretty and looked older
she knew only what had been told her

She was hot so she went for a bath in the river? After 20 minutes you were still unconcerned?

What a bunch of bullshit. He probably throttled her and threw her into the river.

Ockham's razor.
