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.

TV Reporter (Was Not) Murdered in Phnom Penh Street (Corrected)

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): A 24-year-old man, Koy Piseth, a reporter at CBN TV Online, was attacked and killed on September 29, 2020, at 2 am, on the street, in Sangkat Chom Chao 3, Khan Porsenchey, Phnom Penh.

Image
The local people said before the incident; they heard a noise of a motorbike falling over on the road outside. They came out to check, and found a dead man with a motorbike in the middle of the road, and there was nobody else with the victim.
The police contacted the owner of the house that had a security camera, which showed that the victim was attacked from behind, causing him to hit the ground and die immediately.

The identity of the killer is unknown, but he ran away to escape and is being sought by police.

Correction: The IFJ statement issued on September 29 incorrectly stated that Kuy Piseth had been attacked. Subsequent evidence has found that he died after falling from his motorbike. The IFJ apologies for this error.
