Re: Woman Drives into Phnom Penh Wat and Fires Two Gunshots
I know it costs a bit for the modifications etc but that Zoraki sells for around $110. I thought the local military/ security forces were getting ripped off paying $3000+ for Berettas/ Glocks that cost less than a thousand in most countries but paying $1500 for a Saturday night special is ridiculous.CEOCambodiaNews wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 5:34 pm the suspect bought the gun,a ZORAKI.

Silence, exile, and cunning.

It's obvious the monk wasn't paid sufficient remuneration. You only get what you pay for nowadays..

Motive for the shooting: Blessing given by the monk two years ago did not work and the lady's lover left her.
https://www.phnompenhpost.com/national/ ... g-monk-gunPhan Sopheak, a member of the Saravoan Pagoda committee, told The Post on Sunday that according to the victim, the suspect arrived at the pagoda on Saturday afternoon by tuk-tuk and stormed into the monk’s room.
He said the woman was angry regarding a water blessing she had received from the monk two years previously.
She claimed the blessing had caused her to have a series of bad luck, Sopheak said.
During the argument, she took out a gun and fired two shots into the air, causing panic in the pagoda.
Shortly afterwards, Daun Penh district police arrived and arrested the woman.
“According to what I heard after the incident, the woman seemed to be suffering from mental illness and was overly superstitious,” Sopheak said.
He said that about two years ago, she and a foreign man came to the pagoda to receive blessings from the monk at Saravoan Pagoda.
Sopheak said the woman claimed that after receiving the water, she and the foreign man began to have trouble in their relationship and her business also suffered problems.
“She apparently consulted a fortune teller who told her the monk who gave her the water blessing had used black magic to make her unlucky. That’s why she came here looking for revenge against the monk,” he said.

Funny the fortune teller would say the monk used black magic...“She apparently consulted a fortune teller who told her the monk who gave her the water blessing had used black magic to make her unlucky.

I don't know why this makes me think of another thread about educational standards in schools.
