This unpunished murder is making the rounds of Khmer social media pages and causing a scandal. If there is one thing that the authorities dislike, it is losing face on facebook, so perhaps someone will do something about finding and arresting the killer of this young woman.
(Clue: He is probably living with his parents.)


Cambodian government officials recently launched a Stop the Violence campaign in response to increasing violence against women and children, so it's time for the authorities to step up and take action.

No Justice for Chun Dina
On the 16 January 2020, a young woman, Chun Dina, was shot and killed. The presumed murder suspect is the woman's fiance, Yeun Van Det. However, two years after the killing, there has been no justice for the deceased and her family.

UPDATE

Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): 16 January 2022 is the two-year anniversary of the murder of this beautiful young woman who was shot dead by her fiancé, a military officer. Relevant authorities have, until now, not arrested the gunman for the murder. This beautiful young woman who was shot by her fiancé with a handgun, sustained serious injuries and died on the way to the hospital. The murder took place at 8 pm on 16 January 2020 at house No. H03, Borey Romchek Odim, Kantouk Cheung village, Sangkat Kantouk, Khan Kambol.


The victim was 25 year old Chun Dina, a medical school graduate who was about to take her final exams. The suspect was her fiancé, 24-year-old Yeun Van Det, a military officer who came to stay at the house where the incident took place. The couple had planned to get married on 28 March 2020.
However, according to the neighbors in the vincinity, the couple were seen arguing frequently due to the boyfriend's jealousy. Then, on the evening of 16 January 2020, when the two returned from renting a wedding dress for the wedding day, there was a verbal dispute, followed by the sound of a gunshot. The assailant grabbed the victim by the arm and shot her in the neck; the bullet pierced her left cheek.
Relying on a neighbor's help, the young woman was rushed to Lam Bunthon Clinic, but the doctor pronounced the victim dead on arrival. When Yeun Vandet learnt that his fiancee was dead, the presumed killer fled the scene and has not been found since then, despite the fact that he has been officially sought by the Cambodian authorities for two years.

The family of Chun Dina are crying out for justice.

The Khmer press have been posting updates and reminders of this two-year-old murder case, where the prime suspect is still roaming free, and they are keeping the topic in the public domain. But, until now, these very pertinent questions from the media have been answered by complete radio silence from the authorities.
Where is the number one suspect, Yeun Vandeth ?


Two years have passed since the murder committed by a military officer who shot and killed his fiancée.

On the morning of January 17, 2020, the police visited the scene in Borey Romchek Odim to make a report with the relatives of the victim and they continue to search to arrest the perpetrator. However, over two years later, the suspected killer has not yet been arrested and prosecuted by the Kambol district police.

Please be informed that the killer, named Yeun Vandeth, about 26 years old, was an officer of the 70th Unit, and is still living outside the law, as the authorities have not yet caught him.
Will the family of the victim ever get the light of justice?
