Sorcerer Murdered, Accused of Black Magic Spell

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Kampong Speu, Cambodia News: On September 14, 2018, at 5:30 am, a 66-year-old man, Hem Yem, was murdered because of accusations of black magic in Phnom Sruch district, Kampong Speu.

A 54-year-old man, Chen Chon, was subsequently arrested, confessing that the reason he killed the victim was because he suspected that the victim had put a black magic spell on him.

The victim's wife said that, before the incident, she was in her house and her husband was cooking underneath on the ground floor. After that, she heard a strange sound of cutting and she went downstairs to find that her husband had been killed. The suspect ran away, but was later arrested by police.
