Convicted scammer HY Socheat still remains free

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.

Convicted scammer HY Socheat still remains free

Post by MAGA »

In 2015, two scammers, Hy Socheat and Chheang Sophanna created a fake business to scam 60000usd from an individual. Chheang Sophanna was acquitted without appearing at the trial, while Hy Socheat was convicted under the criminal code of Articles 377 and 378 back on March 15, 2019. Hy Socheat was sentenced to serve 1.5 years in prison and was ordered to pay 65000usd to the victim. However, as of today, Hy Socheat has never been arrested or paid the victim back. Image
