PHNOM PENH - In the early hours of this morning, around 3am on 10 November, a Russian-Khmer couple on a motorbike were held up at gunpoint when they were driving home from Relux Club(?) in the Russian Market to the girlfriend's house on Russian Federation Boulevard.
At the entrance to Veal Borey near Thmorak Thla, Wat Veul Borey Boulevard along Russian Road, Sangkat Teuk Thla, Khan Sen Sok, Phnom Penh, the couple were stopped by 2 or 3 men on a motorbike who took out a pistol and robbed the couple of their belongings - a wallet with 30,000r and a ladies makeup bag, as well as their Suzuki motorbike. One of the thieves rode off on their bike and there was nothing they could do to stop him.
The victims immediately reported the robbery to the Teuk Thla police station.Image
