Man found floating beneath the Cambodian-Chinese Friendship Bridge

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.

Phnom Penh: A dead man was discovered by a fisherman on a river near the shore under the Chroy Changva Bridge, at about 1 pm on May 13, 2019 at the point at Chroy Changvar new bridge in Srah Chak commune, Daun Penh district.

Police have recovered the body, but say that nobody answering to his description has been reported missing . The male victim is about 30 years old, wearing black jeans, wearing a black t-shirt and a wristwatch.

Police suspect a suicide off the bridge overnight, which then floated and drifted to the nearby river bank. RIP.

The bridge that leads out to Chroy Changvar.......that's the Cambodia-Japan Friendship Bridge, no? Or did that get bought up whilst I wasn't looking?

Aren't there two bridges now? One is Cambodia-Japan, the other is Cambodia-China.
