Just give him the chicken

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.

Just give him the chicken

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Another woman killed by her husband for a ridiculously trivial motive over the holiday season. They probably ate the chicken at her funeral anyway.

Man ‘kills wife over chicken’ in Preah Sihanouk
Wed, 16 November 2016
Kim Sarom

A 54-year-old man was arrested in Preah Sihanouk province on Monday over allegations from his children that he killed his wife following a disagreement about slaughtering a chicken.

Hem Samon, police chief of Prey Nop district’s Samaki commune, where the wife was killed, yesterday identified the suspect as Pin Phan.

Samon said Phan had spent the day drinking beer with his neighbours, returning home to catch a chicken to cook and eat when his companions ran out of food.

His wife, grocer Suos Sovan, 62, stepped in to stop him. The two fell into an argument, which spiralled into a brawl in which Phan delivered a fatal blow to his wife, Samon said.

“During the fight, the husband punched her, knocking her unconscious to the ground,” Sovan said. “Her children took her to the provincial hospital but, unfortunately, she died.”
