Cyber Threat Suspect Apprehended: A Case of Revenge Porn in Cambodia

Post by CEOCambodiaNews »

Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): In a recent announcement from the Anti-Cyber Crime Department, an individual was apprehended on August 6, 2023, under charges related to cyber threats and revenge porn targeted at his former girlfriend. The suspect allegedly threatened to release explicit videos and nude photographs of the victim, taken during their erstwhile relationship, if she failed to meet his demands.

The operation, led by Mr. Seng Heang, Deputy Prosecutor of the Phnom Penh Municipal Court, resulted in the arrest following repeated reports of threats made by the victim. The suspect purportedly warned the victim of his intent to disseminate her private images on social media.

Preparations are underway to build a solid case against the accused, which will subsequently be presented to the Phnom Penh Municipal Court for further legal adjudication.

In light of this incident, the Anti-Cyber Crime Department, representing the General Commission of the National Police, issued a reminder for individuals to exercise prudence while sharing intimate videos or photos with their partners. They highlighted that such behavior potentially exposes them to severe damage to their reputation, should these private images unintentionally leak or be malevolently utilized by any party.
