Foreign Gang of Thieves Nabbed by Police, Including British JAMES WHITLOW and British Female JAMIE RHODES in 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.

Sorry, i have not been following closely.
I thought Whitlow had no current passport. ??
if so, how could he be let free?

Looks like Daniel is wanted for other things crimes as well, or this minimart staff is just super excited to see him:

If that was the smile mart on the junction of northbridge and 2004, i actually told the staff he had been arrested and they should contact the police. The guy in the shop just said they dont do anything about the people in the pictures, they put them up in the hope that the people dont return.
Can someone please explain to me the nature of these "wanted pictures"? Does the mart catch them for shoplifting or something? How do they get a photo of the offender? Thanks

I believe he was arrested with a stolen passport - something like Stuart Bucknell (sp?)

I also want to understand how something like this can happen. I thought it is almost impossible for foreigners to be released on bail, let alone in the absence of a passport which the court can hold to ensure the defendant will not abscond.

This isn't even the first time he has been lifted.

Whitlow was in immigration slammer well over a year ago and slid out back then, too.
