7 Women Arrested for Playing Cards in Kandal Province

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.

Can show photos and name villagers "caught" playing cards but murder someone in Sinoville and cannot publish names.

Get over yourself. Middle of the day, at home playing cards, which as I said I could care less if they do, it certainly shouldn't be a crime. Easy to make the connection to that they're not employed out of the home. So yeah, those are
probably their main daily tasks. Got it?

Can't hide anything in your hand or sleeve.
What about a fine for not wearing a shirt.

My wife and I were playing Gin Rummy on a train in Thailand one time. We weren't even keeping score much less gambling, someone reported us to the police and they confiscated our cards and gave us a lecture about how gambling was illegal.
up to you...
