American and Finnish Nationals Amongst Several Foreigners Arrested in Huge Sihanoukville MDMA Drug Bust

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.

Only one of them is drinking. That's suspicious as hell.

It appears that it was the landlord that became suspicious and called the police because Grafman was not living in the house he had rented, but would just visit for a few hours every few days.
About 900 tablets of MDMA were found, together with powdered synthetics and equipment. The total weight of the seizure was about half a kilogram according to an anti-drug department officer.
The tablets were expected to sell at $20 a piece, resulting in an estimated total worth of $18,000.
All five foreigners are expected to appear in court today; the American Grafman is charged with drug production, the Ukranian Melnyk and Czech woman Vlkoval with drug-trafficking, and the two other women, Mukhametianova the Russian and Sirkia from Finland are to be charged with drug use.

In one of the last high profile cases of a foreigner busted for drugs in Cambodia, Peter Gold got 4 years for trafficking and use, even though he was found with less than 5 grams of methamphetamine and some cannabis:

I see 28 years for the ring leaders, it seems to be a lucky number for the judges.
