According to Koh Santepheap Daily News, The police officer who shot himself died today around 2:00 pm at Calmette hospital.

All's well that ends well. And the wife looks to have had a lucky escape to boot... Imagine what this tosser would be like to live with

God bless his poor wife.

Perhaps the man was like DetroitMuscle: A loveable, misunderstood drunk who never meant any harm with his bullying.

I think the official story of suicide over being denied karaoke may not quite be accurate.

If posters want to stick to this story as being gospel why not the other cases of "death by fainting" "death by trees" "death by dizziness"?

I remember a few years ago there was the suicide by some American perv in a cell. Somehow he had a gun whilst in custody and shot himself multiple times in the head.

Or the cop that commit suicide by shooting himself in the head, also killing another cop that was standing precariously close to him. Two dead cops, two head wounds, one bullet?!

Cambodian press rarely reports the facts so isn't it a bit quick to make judgements?

Judgements, or comments and speculation on the information received ?

Maybe the poor guy was murdered by his wife for his money ?
Maybe they were making out passionately in the car when the gun went off accidentally; then the wife was too ashamed to talk about this so she said he shot himself on purpose ?
He had a brain tumour and only 2 weeks to live ?
He had spent all the couple's money on gambling and owed more money to loan sharks ?

OR he pulled the gun on his wife because she was giving him some attitude and it's a man's job to put his wife in her place. Even if he's a drunk and blathering idiot, he deserves respect. Unfortunately,its complicated to get a gun out of your pocket when you're drunk sitting behind the wheel of a car, and some people just have difficulties with co-ordination. RIP.

If people are quick to "judge" what happened here, it's probably because in recent reports of death due to domestic violence, a large majority of cases concern men killing their wives while drunk.

That taught her a lesson

May this serve as an example to others.

The poor wife will be constantly walking on eggshells now. If she overcooks dinner or serves him an Anchor instead of Angkor she risks him putting more holes in himself !

did it not get reported that he died from his injuries?
[edit] yeah just checked it was on this thread on page 1 oops lol

Whoops ! It won't be my last moronic post I imagine. I read it a few days ago & started again on page 2. They took him to Calamette - I should have known.
