Female Student Killed in Range Rover Hit and Run in Phnom Penh, Cambodia (UPDATE: Release from Prison)

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.

We don't need to demonize this father. I doubt he asked for this photo. There is no way to win in this situation. What is he supposed to look like?

His daughter was young and stupid, but not with malicious intent. He may have not exercised the best judgement letting her use the vehicle. Again, it doesn't mean he didn't care if she killed someone.

I'm sure he feels terrible, and for all that this man may be and is not, he is a dad has been through a lot.

Truly wishful thinking on many levels.

Let me join you in wishing the same.

Maybe karma will punish her in the next left.

:beer3: being born a spoilt brat is not the fault off the young girl driver,the average age off posters on here i would say must be 50,if not higher.We have all made mistakes in life some small some big,my only hope isthe young girl learns from this tragedy.Buts her heart and soul in doing good,maybe a long shot but there is good in us all. :hattip:

I fully disagree. You raise a little shit to think she's above the law then let her drive a high powered SUV on public streets with no licence, what do you expect will happen?

And by your actions and how you manipulate the "competent authorities" you show that money and power and being special gets you preferential treatment and special dispensations.

This sets a precedent for the young rich and spoilt to hang their hat on when they get in the shit.

What makes you think the father let her drive the SUV? After all she's too young for a car licence.

Take it as a pinch of salt but rumours Mrs Cargo heard was that the rich family have number of vehicles (incl the rolls), the keys were left and the girl took off with it without her parents knowledge.

Hearsay but sounds more logical than her father let her drive off with it with her friends.

In the earlier reports, she was said to be various different ages.

I suspect she is over 18, but they are saying she is 16 to get a lighter sentence.

If she is old enough, she probably has permission to drive the vehicle.
