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.

UPDATE: Police have a suspect
27 March 2018
- Police in Ratanakkiri province are seeking to arrest a suspect over the rape and murder of a 20-year-old woman on a rubber plantation where she was working in O’Yadav district’s Yatung commune.

A police report identified the victim as Ron Senghorng, who went missing on Saturday and whose family found her naked body on the plantation on Sunday.

After an autopsy, it was concluded that she was raped and bludgeoned to death with a wooden bar, which was found bloodied at the scene.

Hak Horn, spokesman for the provincial court, said that as of yesterday, police were at least 70 percent sure of who committed the crime, and also declined to identify the suspect.

“Until now, we are 70 to 80 percent sure who did it and our police are working on it,” he said. “The suspect was not a fellow worker for the plantation. We have been working on this case very hard for the last two days.”

Mr Horn added that the victim was walking alone when she was ambushed, raped and killed by the suspect near the plantation.

“She was a worker for the rubber plantation there and the suspect took the opportunity to rape her when she was walking alone and it was quiet,” he said. “After the autopsy, we handed over the body to her family for her funeral.”
