Yeah, that place out 'there'. Anything not really Cambodia related should go here.

Song had been secluded for so long he had difficulties communicating with police,..

Chinese police have arrested a fugitive who'd been on the run for 17 years, after they used drones to spot his cave hideout.

The 63-year old, named Song Jiang by the police, had been jailed for trafficking women and children but escaped from a prison camp in 2002.

He had been living in a tiny cave cut off from human interaction for years.

Yongshan police received clues about Song's whereabouts in early September, they said on their WeChat account.

The drones eventually spotted a blue-coloured steel tile on a steep cliff as well as traces of household rubbish nearby.
