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.

Police nab snatchers with $20,000 jackpot handbag

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Bag theft victim sees the return of $20,000
Tue, 21 November 2017
Four capital thieves must have felt like they won the jackpot when they discovered $20,000 inside a bag they snatched in Srah Chak commune.

Police say a woman was walking along Russian Boulevard on Saturday on her way to buy a car when the group pulled up and came away with her purse.

She alerted cops about the crime, saying there were two sets of diamond earrings, a smartphone and ID cards in the bag, along with the wad of bills.

After two days, the boys in blue zeroed in on all the suspects and brought them down to headquarters for charges.
