9Yo Schoolboy Drowns in Local Swimming Hole
Cambodia News, (Banteay Meanchey Province): Pan Panha, a nine-year-old schoolboy, drowned at 2:30 pm on October 12, 2023, at the point of the buffalo road canal on the north side of the Rohal Steel Bridge on National Road No. 6, in Rohal commune, Preah Net Preah district, Banteay Meanchey province.
At 11am that day, the young lad had asked Loeung Saroeum, his 60-year-old grandmothe, if he could to go for a walk with his friends in the fields. He was not allowed to go, but he disobeyed his grandmother and sneaked out of the house to join his two playmates, who went up to the canal for a swim.
According to the explanation of the victims' two friends, Van Sieu Meng, and Chuor Sochin, both 9-year-old boys from the same village as Pan Panha, they were diving into the canal on Buffalo Road, when suddenly their friend leapt too far into the deeper water where he drowned because he didn't know how to swim.
The other two boys ran off to get help, but unfortunately it was too late to save him.
A village police committee, consisting of the police of Rohal commune council, doctors of Rohal commune, the village chief, and the grandmother of the boy, came to rescue the boy from the water, and after examination, the committee concluded that Pan Panha died from accidental drowning. RIP.
