Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): A shocking incident took place at noon on 5 October 2023 in Toul Pong village, Sangkat Choam Chao I, Khan Por Senchey, Phnom Penh, where a woman was found murdered in a pool of blood while working alone at her house.
According to a source at the scene, the victim was identified as Chhim Srey Mom, aged 40. Her husband had gone out to work, selling and repairing electronics in front of a garment factory, and their two children were at school at the time of the crime.

The source added that when the children returned home from school, they found the woman lying dead in the house with multiple stab wounds, causing them to scream and alarm the neighbors, who immediately called the police.


The victim was operating a business on the ground floor of the building, and had rented out the first and second floors. The house had been targeted for robbery in the past, so as a first step, the case is being treated as a suspected murder and robbery. The local police force arrived at the scene, cordoned off the area, and then reported the incident to the Police Technical Office of the Capital Police in Phnom Penh.
An autopsy and investigation is being conducted to identify the killer and bring them to justice.

NB: Photos of the grieving children of the victim were deliberately edited out of the OP by CEO News.
