Sihanoukville, Cambodia News: The Prey Nop inspector arrested five fake monks with drugs on December 08, 2018 at Philyta guesthouse in Ohtapang village, Prey Nop district, Sihanoukville.

After receiving a report from the guesthouse owner that the so-called monks were doing drugs in his rooms, the police went to the scene and arrested the suspects with the evidence; they were sent to the police station for questioning.

Police investigation and the testimony of a chief monk, Chem Yuth, determined that the five suspects were pretending to be monks so they could beg for money to buy drugs. The police confiscated five monks robes and three collection pots.
