Cambodia News, (Siem Reap): On April 1, 2021, the Anti-Trafficking and Protection of Minors Bureau investigated and arrested a suspect for having sex with minors under the age of 15 and for child prostitution, in a period between 2019 and 2021, in Ta Vien Village, Sangkat Sala Kamroeuk, Siem Reap City.

Colonel Chea Heng, Director of the Office of Anti-Trafficking and Protection of Minors, said that on March 30, 2021, Un Koy, a 38-year-old male from Ta Vien Village, Sala Kamroeuk Commune, filed a complaint against Niem Phay, a 28-year-old man from the same village, accusing him of committing a sex act on his 11-year-old son. The suspect reportedly gave the child 2,000 riels and a Samsung phone.

After receiving the complaint, the police reported to the Prosecutor to open a preliminary investigation and summoned Nim Phay for questioning, but he did not confess. Then the police checked the suspect's mobile phone and saw a video of the suspect naked, playing a 10-year-old boy, who told police that Niem Phay also played with his genitals and had sex with him in the anus.

The suspect has been charged with having sex with two children under the age of 15. On the order of His Excellency Keut Vannareth, Prosecutor of Siem Reap Provincial Court, on April 1, 2021, at 13:30, the police have arrested the suspect named Niem Phay, male, 28 years old, gasoline seller in Ta Vien Village.

The suspect is currently in custody and police are building a case to be sent to court for further proceedings.
