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.

Monk detained for indecent assault

Buth Reaksmey Kongkea / Khmer Times

A Buddhist monk was arrested on Wednesday after assaulting a woman under the pretence of drawing a tattoo on her vagina in order to repel “bad luck” moles.

The suspect was identified as Venerable Sok Heng, 62, a monk living at Thammatrey pagoda in Phnom Penh’s Dangkor district.

District police officer Seng Vuthy said the monk was a renowned magic master and astrologer.

Mr Vuthy said the monk was invited to the 31-year-old woman’s house to treat her on Wednesday, after he earlier diagnosed her moles as the cause of misfortunes in her love life.

The victim knew the suspect and had visited his room at the pagoda before.

Mr Vuthy added the victim’s husband was unaware that magic was about to be performed on his wife’s vagina and was not home at the time. During the ceremony, the monk took three lit incense sticks to burn a symbol on the victim’s vagina in order to expel the supposed bad luck.

The victim’s husband, upon his return home, interrupted the ceremony. He caught the monk, kicked him, and brought him straight to the police station.

Sum Sary, chief of Prey Sar commune administrative police, confirmed the monk was released yesterday after a compromise was reached between the pagoda chief and the victim’s husband.

“The monk was accused of indecent assault, but due to a compromise between the two parties, and the intervention of the pagoda chief, he was released,” Mr Sary said.

“He has not been defrocked, and has returned to live in the pagoda as normal.”

Was he using his big, blunt fleshy needle and sticky white ink?

I'm not aware of any reference to "bad luck moles" or "magic" in Buddhism

There is a worrying trend of sexual assault in Buddhism globally

Not been defrocked.......

Nor was Cardinal Bernard Francis Law despite a $95 million pay out to 552 victims of sexual assault. He resigned.

He is but one of 3000 alleged over 50 years regards sexual assault, mostly on children.

What is it with these types of organisations & their teachings on celibacy that continually result in such acts?

I remember a reported case some years ago of a monk in Thailand getting caught with videos of multiple women he had convinced to get naked behind a screen in his temple and insert a banana inside themselves as part of some supposed spiritual ritual. Of course he had set up cams behind the screen. How adult Thai women were persuaded to follow that logic is baffling.

If some monk tried to insert a banana up my arse for some sort of spiritual cleansing, I'd say "Hell no! I'm not falling for that ........again."

That was actually in Cambodia. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if it happened elsewhere as well.

AFAIK Voltaire was a deist ie. He believed in the existence of a god.

im only referring to organised systems that have laid down rules eg celibacy yet result in horrific sexual abuses not diety belief.
here is an expanse of Voltaire's thinking if you're interested : http://www.deism.com/voltaire.htm

deism in the past was self protection much like in 13 counties today where its still illegal to not be religious & the death penalty is given for such a "crime" of thought
