Bingo! How depressing that the most cynical theories are usually correct.General Mackevili wrote:I assume the loggers were officials too? Turf war...
Wouldn't be complete without the standard response: Deny everything.Authorities in Preah Vihear province on Tuesday arrested a local soldier on suspicion of being involved in the fatal shooting of a police officer and a Forestry Administration ranger on an overnight patrol for illegal loggers early Saturday morning...
The same officer, Phet Sophoan, told a reporter on Sunday that he suspected military involvement in the attack because a group of soldiers had been arrested for logging in the area a few months ago.
https://www.cambodiadaily.com/news/rcaf ... ger-99897/The department’s commander, In Bora, confirmed the questioning of a Brigade 9 soldier in connection with the murders...
But Division 3 commander Srey Doek denied that any of his soldiers had been taken into custody.
“There has been no arrest of my soldiers; this information is not true,” he said...
