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.

Cambodia News (Kandal): On April 9, 2021, a man attempted to kill his wife by burning her with gasoline at a house of a woman named Von Sreymom in the Saang district of Kandal.
The victims were identified as the suspect's wife, Rum Sokhorn, a 38-year-old woman, and Vorn Sreymom, a 31-year-old woman. The suspect, Houn Hoeun, a 43-year-old man, was arrested. The police confiscated a bottle of gasoline and a lighter.

The suspect always argued with his wife, Rum Sokhorn, so she ran away to her friend's house. On April 9, 2021, at 8:40 am, while the victim was at the house of her friend, Von Sreymon, the suspect took a bottle of gasoline and a lighter, and he asked the victim to come out of the house. Then the suspect poured the gasoline on his wife and attempted to burn her and himself. However, the house owner caught the suspect in time, so nobody was injured.

The police went to the scene and arrested the suspect with the evidence. He was sent to the police station for case preparation.

You're meant to burn the house down, not the wife

Obviously nobody told him
