Hmm, drugs and petrol don't mix well, especially during a domestic dispute.
Couple injured as wife sets herself ablaze during row
A woman locked in an argument with her husband yesterday tried to commit suicide by setting herself on fire, leading to a blaze that injured the couple in Boeung Keng Kang II commune.
Prom Yorn, chief of the Phnom Penh Municipal Fire Department, said the husband was Chinese and the wife Vietnamese-Khmer.
“According to the neighbours, they had been arguing for a few days,” he said. “She went out to buy petrol today and brought it home. Later, there was a loud argument and she doused herself in petrol and tried to commit suicide.”
Mr Yorn said four fire trucks responded to the scene at about 12pm, but only two were needed to extinguish the blaze inside the fourth-floor room at the apartment building.
Mr Yorn added that both the husband and wife were seriously injured and are recovering in hospital.
A motodop driver stationed outside the apartment building, who requested anonymity out of fear of retribution, said the woman goes by the name Srey Mao and added he suspected she is a drug user.

Even if they were drug users, that's a terrible way to (not) die:

Excuses for the frivolous comment since it appears that the man died from his burns earlier today. RIP.
