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.

Sihanoukville, Cambodia News: Four Chinese men have been arrested for the kidnapping and extortion of two Chinese tourists, CHEN TI, a 36-year-old man, and DAI YANYING, a 44-year-old woman, on September 10 at 3 pm, in room no. 406 in Golden Sand Casino, in Sangkat 4, Sihanoukville.

The suspects have been identified as WU TAOTAO, 30-year-old, WU XIONG BO, 33-year-old, WU XUXIANG, 27-year-old, and REN JIHU, 29-year-old.

The victim borrowed 100,000 yuan (around $US15,000) from the suspects for their friend to play at the Chang You Casino. The victim's friend lost all the money, so they couldn't pay it back. The suspects then kidnapped the two victims and forced them to write a loan document.
The suspects were detained at the police station for questioning, and police have confiscated their Lexus RX300.

Looks like a Chinese Military Flashlight Stungun to me. Very handy in SHV for torturing your victims during a power cut. :thumb:

Unless it's one of these.

Some of the Chinese who were in the Driving Without a Licence Thread had similar-looking batons.

Four charged over kidnapping and torture

Preah Sihanouk Provincial Court today charged four Chinese nationals with unlawfully confining two countrymen, and torturing one of them, over a gambling debt in Sihanoukville.

Provincial deputy police chief Colonel Bour Sothy identified the accused as Wu Tao Tao, 30; Wu Xiong Bo, 33; Wu Xu Xiang, 27; and Ren Ji Hun, 29, all loan sharks operating in the city.

Col Sothy noted that the four were charged with unlawfully confining and torturing a Chinese man named Chen Ti, 36, and a woman Dai Yan Ying, 44, at the Khsach Meas Casino on Friday. The accused were arrested on Monday and are in prison pending their trial.

Col Sothy said that after the arrests, police rescued the two victims from a room which the accused rented in the casino. Police also seized two electronic gas lighters which were used to torture Mr Ti.
