Prisoners dying while incarcerated has increased dramatically
wonder how many "foreigners"?
In 2021, 253 inmates died in Cambodian prisons, a huge increase when compared to 2017 when only 100 prisoners died, and has steadily increased since then, or a massive increase in the number of deaths by 232% over five years.
so seems except for drugs, Cambodia has a low prison population>>>

https://www.khmertimeskh.com/501128232/ ... 7sGOOiXssYAccording to the Ministry of Interior, as of April 2020, there
were more than 39,000 inmates in 29 prisons designed to hold only 11,000 prisoners.
“The war on drugs means that the government has filled up prisons with about 22,000 drug users,”
the ministry said.

I bet plenty of suicides. If you're 50 and are beginning a life sentence of 25+ years you might as well check-out sooner rather than later.

Re: Prisoners dying while incarcerated has increased dramatically
Was Covid a factor perhaps? 2021 was not a normal year.
Re: Prisoners dying while incarcerated has increased dramatically
Why would tapping out would increase so much for that reason? I don't think that sentencing has changed that much since 2017. There is something more sinister going on. I can feel it.
Re: Prisoners dying while incarcerated has increased dramatically
I'm not suggesting the increase is suicide related, just suggesting that suicides could be a large element of deaths in custody.
In civilsed societies long term prisoners can eek out a life for themselves; they have beds and gyms and education and
TV's etc. Over here the prison conditions are terrible. Those little birds in cages on Riverside are treated better.

Ok Doc, but that doesn't explain anything. We are not in the most civilsed country. I think that the covid is the best guess for these stats like Chad said earlier.Doc67 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 09, 2022 5:51 pmI'm not suggesting the increase is suicide related, just suggesting that suicides could be a large element of deaths in custody.

Possibly, especially since most are emaciated and have weak immune systems after just a few months in.Chad Sexington wrote:Was Covid a factor perhaps? 2021 was not a normal year.

Cambodian officials and police don't care about anything other than what they can get, money wise. Salaries here are pitiful, but you look at their homes and cars they drive. Where did they get the money from.

I'm placing my bets on Karma being the cause of deaths.
Re: Prisoners dying while incarcerated has increased dramatically
39.000 inmates, 253 deaths.
So approx 1 out of 160 each year, a mortality rate of 7 per 1000. That doesn't seem a big number.
Could the 2017 numbers be underrated ?
