Cambodian embassy representatives in Thailand are demanding justice for a Cambodian worker who was allegedly violently beaten by his Thai employer.

The 34-year-old worker, Nan Nam Sok from Battambang province, sustained significant head injuries after being beaten with a gun at Banmai market in Thailand’s Chachoengsao province on February 12.

Immediately after the incident the victim sought intervention from the Cambodian embassy and requested their assistance in holding his employer to account.

In a Facebook post on February 15, the embassy said its representatives had gone with Nam Sok to the Chachoengsao provincial police station to request the assistance of the Thai authorities in resolving the matter.

“After meeting to find a solution, the worker received justice and was satisfied with the results of the Thai authorities’ actions,” it said.

The embassy said the Thai authorities would take legal action against the employer for his violent assault on the Cambodian worker.
