CEOCambodiaNews · Post by **CEOCambodiaNews** » Mon Apr 08, 2019 7:30 pm

This was posted on a South East Asia backpacker social media page yesterday.

OP answers the 'How do we know this is true ?' question that everyone asks in these cases:

The accused man is a male Algerian national aged 30 or 32. His first name is Brahim.
CEONews has further passport details.

Well why don't you share those details?

if it isnt a criminal offence to leave your backpack unlocked and unattended with all those goodies in it in a hostel (aka thieves heaven) then it should be!

Victim blaming? Foolish yes but criminal?

This may well have happened exactly as reported, and if so, what a shame. Poor guy, and an idiot.

I'm yet to meet a soap dodger who DOESN'T know that your stuff will get nicked if you leave it a hostel - I can't help but think someone's pulling an insurance scam every time this happens. Chuck an old Nokia, a broken laptop, and a few bucks in a backpack and leave it where its likely to disappear, then claim your latest model mePhone, meBook and two thousand dollars are gone. It's a bugger when it doesn't pay off though, isn't it?

Insurance companies are strict on what they pay out on. If someone was negligent, they dont pay. So very unlikely.

And then you have a sob-story on which to base your GoFundMe ... or Blues song, I forget. Maybe it's both.
