Senior monk arrested and defrocked for rape after "corn porn" scandal

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.

From what I have read in Khmer press/FB posts, they both fucked like rabbits for over a year. When he decided not to quit his good monk job as a fortune teller (he was quite popular with the locals and was making bank) and marry her, she claimed rape. His phone calls to her after this broke, which she recorded and posted, are now classics.

A series of new idioms in Khmer revolving around corn cob activities has already entered the Cambodian lexicon.

"The revolution did more than legally create the United States; it transformed American society... Far from remaining monarchical, hierarchy-ridden subjects on the margin of civilization, Americans had become, almost overnight, the most liberal, the most democratic, the most commercial minded, and the most modern people in the world." - Gordon S.

PM scolds monk interviewers
12 June 2018
Prime Minister HE on Monday threatened to have two military officials fired for conducting interviews over a recent sexual scandal involving a former monk.

And even as he appealed to the people to maintain the “value of Buddhism and Cambodian women”, an observer commented that the issue didn’t require intervention from the Kingdom’s top politician.

Speaking in Kompong Thom province at a ceremony to inaugurate the expansion of National Road 6 on Monday, the prime minister called for an end to discussions surrounding the case of Srel Vanna, a former monk at Phnom Bakleu pagoda who stands accused of raping a 19-year-old Banteay Meanchey woman.

The story has gone viral on social media, with users referring to the ascetic as the monk who “eats boiled corn”, a joke taken from the video that spawned the controversy and a play on the Khmer word for monk.

Pheng Vannak and Khan Chan Sophal, who interviewed Vanna and his alleged victim respectively on Facebook Live, were threatened with demotion by the prime minister.
