Man Caught Tucking into (Illegal) Gaur Stew
Cambodia Breaking News (Mondulkiri): On September 14, 2019, the wildlife conservation team of Phnom Prech forest, in collaboration with Memong police, arrested a man named Chob Hanh, for killing a rare gaur, which is a protected species, and for using an illegal weapon. He was caught with raw gaur meat and a pot of gaur stew. Another suspect, who is his son in law, ran away to escape.
The police confiscated an AK gun with nine bullets, 30kgs of gaur meat, a pot of gaur bone stew, and two air guns. The suspect was questioned for case preparation, and police are searching for the other suspect.

The gaur (/ɡaʊər/, Bos gaurus), also called the Indian bison, is the largest extant bovine. It is native to South and Southeast Asia and has been listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List since 1986. The global population has been estimated at maximum 21,000 mature individuals by 2016.

No mention of the stockpile of squared off timber in the background of the first photo, or even the rusty WW1 handcuffs that are stopping him from doing a runner. .I bet they don't make keys for that vintage model any more.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

Lol. This is Mondulkiri. They probably didn't even notice the timber.
Stacks of it everywhere.

Gotta feed the masses .. I think the dude deserves some credit for finding it or to be a part of the operation given his education/ situation , hopefully It will all b discovered and reconciled in court and he will be exonerated and sent for some well deserved re-education !
