Police Look For Khmerican Bob Tang Over Disappearance of San Francisco Uber Driver; Possibly Fled to Cambodia

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.

LoL, it's what caused them to both go missing in the first place.

So nobody's come across a Cambodian named BOB? He's gotta be the only one.

There's a line here about bodies in the river, but it's too soon, and the line is too dark...

It’s no longer a missing person case. They found his body.

The report in CN's link says -

"The U.S. does not have an extradition treaty with Cambodia, so it's not clear yet whether Tang could be forced to return to the Bay Area to face any possible charges if he is found."

What is situation? I thought pedo's got sent back if the US wants them??

They get their passports cancelled and are thus illegally living in Cambodia.

He may be both Cambodian and American. But he's definitely Cambodian, yes. And the pedos who get sent back to the USA are not Cambodians and always get arrested by Cambodian police on immigration violations when the USSA revokes their passports.

If he's a Cambodian citizen, he's in the clear, as long as he never leaves Cambodia.

Find his Cambodian family and he should be not far away. True that there is no extradition treaty, and relations between Cambodia and the US are cool to say the least, but after all, this is a murder charge and the Cambodians might be happy to get rid of him.

Best of luck to the family of the victim to find the killer and get him sent back to the US.
