Manhunt After Foreigner Shot Dead in Phnom Penh (UPDATE:Englishman Arrested)

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.

He looks like a grass to me. Expect further arrests...

I arrived the next day and staid next door, yet another shooting I've missed. I'm surprised the hit man staid around to have himself arrested.

There’s a pistol in one of the photos, too. It would be odd if it turned out to be the weapon in question. But maybe not that odd…

This Facebook post from the Police has CCTV footage of the incident (also states suspects occupation as unknown, i suspect someone just made up the "hired killer" occupation).

Victims name was Dackovi Strahijai, apparently they were friends.

Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

He might just be some hapless meth head who couldn't afford to feed the monkey on his back and was hanging out, or had run up a debt, and someone gave him the choice of either putting in a bit of work or sucking a few dicks. Technically that might make him a hired killer.
