19 Nigerians Arrested in Immigration Raid by Cambodia Police

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.

But ... who will run the local drug syndicate, and terrorise the staff at 1&1? (No, I'm not being racist, I've witnessed some of these specific guys in both situations.)

Actually, it's good to see a few of these particular guys heading home, as now they'll stop following Mrs Stroppy home and proposing marriage to get into Australia.

Why are some not handcuffed?

If these guys get deported, it must be costing Cambodia a lot of cash.
