Australian PETER CAUGHLEY aka HANOI WATCHDOG Dies in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Phnom Penh, Cambodian News: A 71 year old Australian male expat, PETER ANTHONY CAUGHLEY, was discovered dead at 7:30 am on August 07, 2018, at house no. S05 in Borey Sopheak Mokul, Phnom Penh.

He was known in Vietnam as the 'Hanoi Watchdog' who had a bunch of nutty and pornographic blogs where he apparently made up insane stories about fellow expatriates to harass them. All versions of his twisted blogs have since been deleted, but here is a link about him:

When the man's neighbors noticed that there were no lights on in the victim's house for 4 to 5 days, they reported it to the security guard, who informed the police. The police then went to the scene, where they found that Mr. Caughley had passed away in his bedroom.

After the autopsy conducted by the police, they determined that the victim died of a heart attack.

Condolences to the family and friends of the deceased.

There are more extremely graphic details of his death, including images from the scene, in the Darknet Cambodia News forum.

This was a post on one of the now deleted Hanoi Watchdog blogger site before moving from Vietnam to Cambodia:

The Hanoi Watchdog reveals himself at last!

Hi all, my name is Peter Caughley and I AM The Hanoi Watchdog! Got a problem with that? Go fuck yourself!

Or rather I was The Hanoi Watchdog. To tell you the truth I'm a bit bored with it all now. Bored with this blog. Bored with Vietnam. Bored with the endless flood of narcissistic, hypocritical, asinine assholes that make up the vast majority of the expat community here. Thats why I'm leaving.

But I couldn't leave without saying a proper goodbye to you all first - face to face and in person so to speak.

The only reason I stayed anonymous all this time was to avoid the inconvenience of having drunken glory-craving idiots (like Nick or any of the many other TNH/VIP ass-licking lapdogs) constantly trying to make a name for themselves by confronting me about this in public when I am having a nice quiet evening out with friends. Now that I am leaving that is no longer an issue so please feel free to come up and say hi to me the next time you see me and finally get whatever it is you have to say off your chest.

I highly doubt that any of you will despite your endless big-talk on here but hey, prove me wrong about that if you like. I promise that I will not have bodyguards, or any other extraordinary means of defending myself against a verbal or physical attack, at my disposal if that is what you are worried about.

Which is not to say I will be defenceless by any means. On the contrary I am confident in my abilities to defend myself in a fair fight should the need arise. Glory-hounds take note.

As to the question of why? Well, I would think that was rather obvious to anyone who read the blog. My primary targets were TNH (slanderous pricks), VIP (criminal scumbag) and in the end The Word (friends of a criminal scumbag). My secondary targets were all people who supported or enabled them in some way or other.

I neither apologize for nor regret anything I have said or done here. On the contrary I am proud of it. There are far too many bullies getting away with murder in this world. There are far too many cowards turning a blind eye and letting them get away with it or even actively assisting them in their endeavors. I used this blog to stand up to a few of those bullies and give them a taste of their own medicine. Needless to say they did not like it very much.

The other thing I have to say is that I acted alone at all times. Unlike some others in this town who can't seem to wipe their own arses unassisted, I do not need a plethora of dupes and idiots to prop me up just so I can complete the simplest of tasks.

No doubt many in the community will now take this opportunity to let rip with a torrent of abuse towards me in the comment section below. But now that you know who I am for sure why not just say it to my face instead? Or at the very least put a name to your comment, reveal yourself and stand by your words as I have just done. Failing that I really don't care about what you have to say because you are nothing more than a coward who is too scared to face me.

In closing I would just like to say a big thank you to all my fans who kept the views for this blog so consistently high for so long. I would love to be able to continue it but all good things must come to an end sooner or later.

Thank you and goodnight.

Peter Caughley - The Hanoi Watchdog!

He had no friends, and was rejected by his family years ago. Like many in Vietnam, I am happy he is dead and hope he struggled for breath and stumbled about a long time, realizing in his final moments that everyone hated him and he did not have a friend in the world to help him. That nobody found him for 5 days says a lot.

I hope there is a hell, and that he is being checked in now. May the Devil refer to Peter’s creative pornography photoshop jobs on The Hanoi Watchdog Blog to suggest how to treat Peter for eternity. He had a thing for big black dicks.

Not Anonymous. I am the “Nick” he refers to in his farewell letter. He caused irreparable damage to a few people’s careers with his slander. He damaged several small businesses. He had his last laughs after two suicides.

But it’s all for the Lulz with guys like you, and Peter, right? Who cares if a few girls die? Who cares if Peter photoshopped dicks in your girlfriends mouth and she had to explain that to her conservative Asian family?

He probably had a career, he probably achieved something or other in his 71 years. But nobody knows. His fleeting legacy is the mental illness that gripped him in 2011, and he will be remembered these next few days, then forgotten forever for the damage he did to a few dozen lives and the community he terrorized for a few years.

Peter Caughly was an asshole. Everyone in Hanoi is glad he’s Dead.

Those of us still standing are laughing now. A few of us will never stand again.
