Re: Siem Reap police allow drug trafficker to escape prison
The law certainly isn't playing around with these people. I really doubt any of them will see the light of day again. Sounds like there's lots of finger pointing and canaries singing in this group already.

Re: Siem Reap police allow drug trafficker to escape prison
With all the mainland Chinese criminal groups running rampant all over the country, there seems to be a lot of focus on wiping out this non mainland Chinese gang.
The Taiwanese drug lord and his international gang had to get him out in a hurry after he spending years in prison.
I suspect something will happen to all of them once in prison. With the leader getting it first.

Re: Siem Reap police allow drug trafficker to escape prison
Down the memory hole? Will the honorable Cambodian government ever update us on this unfortunate blight on their record?
