Death at the Magic Sponge in Kampot, 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.

In the article, it says that he fell from a height of nearly 10 meters. And in the photo on the darkweb, it looks like the area the cops have taped off would be in front of those bicycles are in the pic above. But actually, I don't know exactly where he fell from.

Someone wrote on the Kampot noticeboard that he fell off the balcony at around 3am and was found around 6am. They say that the CCTV footage shows theat there was nobody near him at the time.
What images or footage I scoured andcouldnt find a thing

There are photos on the darkweb showing where the body landed.

The cops haven't released the CCTV footage.
