Accusation of Theft From Phnom Penh Backpacker Hostel
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.

I think you could be right

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!

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.StroppyChops wrote: ↑Tue Apr 09, 2019 4:08 pm This may well have happened exactly as reported, and if so, what a shame. Poor guy, and an idiot.

And then you have a sob-story on which to base your GoFundMe ... or Blues song, I forget. Maybe it's both.explorer wrote: ↑Tue Apr 09, 2019 4:19 pmInsurance companies are strict on what they pay out on. If someone was negligent, they dont pay.
