Police bust moto thieves, Expat moto place gets bike back they hadn't reported stolen

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.

Police bust moto thieves, Expat moto place gets bike back they hadn't reported stolen

Post by timmydownawell »

EMC Motorbike Rentals in BKK1 posted on FB on the 15th that one of their bikes, a Honda Vision, had been stolen. Four days later they got it back (abeit in a new colour and with different plates). They had not even reported to police that it had been stolen. Police spotted some suspicious dudes in Stung Meanchey and busted them with drugs and stolen motos. Pretty lucky for EMC!
