Phnom Penh Streetcleaner Finds Exploding Grenade Cake Outside Casino

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.

Not only that but presumably they already passed it off to somebody who saw the wires and just opened the car door and left it there on the side of the road

Cambodia News, (Phnom Penh): A grenade was found by a streetcleaner in a cake left on the National Assembly Road in front of Naga Company World 2 in Khan Chamkar Mon, Phnom Penh.
According to a man named Heng Silap, a taxi driver, at about 6:10 a.m. on 15 December, there was a female cleaning worker who said to him, "Uncle! Come to see what I found ! There was a round piece of metal stuck to this cake on the road, so I put it on the lawn". When he saw the object, he knew it was a bomb, so he reported this to NagaWorld security and then reported to the authorities.

What? The "anonymous witness" heard the details of their conversation? Then why did it take another 6 hours for a cleaner to find it and report it?

What happened to the Range Rover?

Interior Ministry spokesman Khieu Sopheak said a witness had seen a Range Rover drop off “the thing” before the cleaner picked it up.

Based on looking up the car’s license plate, the suspects could be Chinese or Cambodian, he said.
