That girl looks very young to be dealing drugs. Also, the Cham are Muslim right and hence more predisposed to avoid drugs?

It really depends, I've known Cham families here and their kids are as wild as anyone else at times. Anyway going from the names:
Ven Samnangrath, a 22-year-old woman, and El Attory, a 19-year-old woman
The first is a very Khmer name - I would assume that is the woman in the black/ Pink Panther outfit. She could be Cham but isn't typically dressed. Then again most Cham women dress quite normally in jeans etc but with a simple headscarf. The veiled younger woman looks pregnant.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

If they haven't caved already, I am thinking they will be found to be used for storage.

There are no sell bags in the photos.

On the table in front of the girl on the couch there is a scale and a bunch of small bags barely in the picture.

Ah, that's a scale. And those bags probably are the sell bags utilised when you talking in Ks. I stand corrected, with the hope the storage part is correct, because that is a waste of life.

Yes, something is missing.
Spoiler:
Like the Nigerian or other, that sold them the drugs in bulk quantities.
