British Tourist Ibrahim Baig Dies in Shenanigans Guesthouse in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

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.

Posted today on YouTube, anyone with a better understanding care to expand?

Asleep at the bar, on the toilet, where?
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

Hi. Sorry, but besides this video, we didn't find anything else about this man's death. It's Sunday, so not a lot of reporting going on, generally.

The man who was found dead has been identified as 21 year old Muhammad Ibrahim Baig from Glasgow, or "Iby Baig" and his family has reached out to CEO to know more about what happened, as they are still all in shock and it's not exactly clear what happened.

If you can answer any of these questions I'm sure they would appreciate some info.

Please help us
His full name is
Muhammad Ibrahim Baig

Or iby Baig as short name

He is my cousin brother . He is 21 years old visiting Cambodia with friends .,
My uncle received a call from embassy to relay news . We have some information but not all . They sent pictures . My cousin will go to identify the body .
We just want to know what really happened?
Was he given medical help ?
Was he alone ?
What time ?
Etc

Really appreciate your help . I think we are all in shock . It’s not sinking in .
I pray to God he wasn’t in pain & wasn’t alone
