Re: Man Killed by Air-Conditioner
Here's a link to the same story in Khmer. I can't read Khmer but my wife is Khmer and she said it was the man's wife who died according to the Khmer story. May need to verify some information here.CEOCambodiaNews wrote: ↑Sat Jan 12, 2019 11:07 am

That is what I read elsewhere too: the man was sleeping with the children in another room and the woman was on her own in the room after not feeling well.

It's going to be a cold case.
The idea that seeing the world is going from place to place to look at obvious things is an illusion natural to dull minds.

Re: Man Killed by Air-Conditioner
You may be right. Sometimes the he/she is not clear, and in the photo the body looks like a man (to me anyway. )Big'n wrote: ↑Sat Jan 12, 2019 12:36 pmHere's a link to the same story in Khmer.

Re: Man Killed by Air-Conditioner
I'm no Fire Marshal, but those burns through her thigh bone and relatively little burn damage around that area and how she is lying there and looks like she never even tried to move, look mighty suspicious to me.
Accelerant + unconscious victim = Hmmm...

No need for the tinfoil hat. With smoke inhalation you can die without even waking up.
No matter how much it rains, the dirt never washes away.
Re: Man Killed by Air-Conditioner
No tinfoil hat required to look at the pictorial evidence and draw logical conclusions. Many things happen here in Cambodia that would never happen elsewhere and slip by the PTB.timmydownawell wrote: ↑Sat Jan 12, 2019 2:10 pmNo need for the tinfoil hat.
