Whatever happened to the chinese that caused the Feb 20 outbreak?

KhmerTimes did quite an expose on them and then they just seemingly disappeared. They sure made sure to publicly shame the security guard however. Seems to me like someone influential (wealthy) had something to do with this. Shocking, I know.

You can make things disappeared in cambodia by paying large amounts of money. Considering they flew prostitutes into a country that has no shortage of prostitutes in a private jet they obviously have money to blow. So I'm guessing you will see a new bently around town sometime soon

I like it how they refer to it as the Feb 20 outbreak ( not the hookers flown in on a private jet smuggled out of quarantine outbreak)

The Khmer Times gets WAY too much credit lately; the "expose" simply reprinted what was known to every man woman and kid in the country since the news first broke.

Anyhow, either they are in pretrial detention which can take up to a year, or they paid out. Anybodys guess is as good as that

I am sure I read in the KT that the authorities don't know their whereabouts. They are obviously part the the cured Covid cases and maybe they just slipped away when they got their second negative test.

I'm going to try and dig it out.

Again, I don't take anything from the Khmer Times as a citation. Shit rag

I thought they were caught sneaking back into the hotel before their second test was due.
Getting Caught: February 18, 2021 early morning. The ill-fated four were caught when they tried to slip back into Sokha Hotel to be in time for the second COVID-19 PCR test, which was normally conducted on the 12th day of quarantine but were caught on CCTV as authorities (not from the in house hotel security) had got wind of the escapades and kept an eagle eye for their return when knocks on their respective doors went unanswered. Two out of the four tested positive and that triggered the whole February 20 Community Incident. However, the two did not reveal much to the authorities, according to those who are aware of the investigations but did not want to be named.
