Man Arrested After Throwing Rocks into the PM's House

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.

Stone thrower released, mother vows treatment
12 January 2020 | 22:08 ICT
The 31-year-old man who was detained for throwing stones at Prime Minister HE’s residence has been released after it was confirmed that he suffered from a mental disorder, according to his mother, Hean Teang.

She said: “He was released by the police. They accepted that he suffered from an illness after we provided them with a letter from a certified psychiatrist and our village and commune chiefs.

“We are grateful for his release, and now we have the opportunity to treat my son. If we ignore him any longer, his illness will intensify.”

Daun Penh district police detained the man for questioning on Wednesday after he lobbed stones at the Prime Minister’s residence near Independence Monument in the capital’s Chaktomuk commune.

Teang said her son had attempted to meet HE on several occasions but was refused access by the Prime Minister’s security.

“He said he wanted to meet with Samdech [HE] because he thought HE was a god. He said that the only man he [wished] to meet was Samdech,” she said.

She also expressed remorse over her son’s actions and said she would take him to the Khmer-Soviet Friendship Hospital to treat his disorder.
