The poor darling. Im guessing someone didn’t want his wife to find out his girlfriend was pregnant.

Is this a different one to the lady burned last week? Wasn't there another (male?) burned the week before.... What is it with all the burnings suddenly I wonder? I mean sure I guess traditionally that is what happens when one dies in Cambodia but usually at a proper ceremony. RIP to both

Different cases. Last week was a man in Kratie, and the most recent case is a woman in Phnom Penh.

UPDATE: A Chinese Man Arrested for the Murder of his Mistress
Image
Phnom Penh, Cambodia Breaking News: Colonel Baov Vibol said that a Chinese man, Yang Yang, 28, holding Chinese passport number ED*******, has been arrested at THE PARK WAY at Street 273, Toul Sangkei 1, Russey Keo, Phnom Penh. He was wanted for the murder of Chinese woman, Miao Xiaolin, on 29 June 2019.
Image
According to Yang Yang's confession, he entered the country in October 2016 to work at The PARK WAY on Street 273, in Phnom Penh.In 2018, he met the victim, Miao Xiaolin, and they became lovers, meeting at a local guesthouse.

On June 29, 2019, the victim told her lover that she was pregnant, but he said he didn't want a baby because he already has a wife, and they had a fight. He threw the woman down and knocked her unconscious.
Then the man went to Psar Thmey and bought a large suitcase for $80, and put the woman's body inside. At 8pm that evening, he took a Lexus RX 330 white Label Number Phnom Penh 2 AM-1334 with the suitcase in the trunk and a bottle of petrol. He stopped on a deserted roadside in Khan Chroy Changvar, and set fire to the suitcase. The killer then left for China on 6 July.
Image
However, after a few weeks, the Chinese man thought it was safe to come back, and he returned to Cambodia on 22 July to take up his job at The Parkway. But Cambodian police were on his trail, and as the victim's lover, the Chinese man was a prime suspect, and he was arrested when he turned up at his work.
Image
The suspect has been questioned and he has confessed to murder, so his case will be prepared and sent before the court.

And she is a very lucky lady. No-one should have to live with a person that is capable of doing that sort of thing to another person.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Yeah, unbelievably sick. The disposal of her body was horribly planned in cold blood. If he hadn't come back to Cambodia, I guess he would have got away with it ?
