American Michael Soto arrested for drug possession, SHV

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.

American Michael Soto arrested for drug possession, SHV

Post by Raybull »

Caught by traffic police while driving helmet less and suspiously, and during a search at the Golden Lions this morning, found to be in possession of ice and marijuana, among other thing. He is a resident of the Powerhouse guesthouse on 7 Makara st. since early 2016.

Face sure has changed a lot since his passport photo, 9 months at most. A lot of sleepless nights!

Sure lost those chubby cheeks. And probably a few teeth as well.

The suspect was also found to be in possession of a scale for distribution purposes, and three passports, 1 expired.
Guess he didn't get the Jan 1st memo.

That means an extra 10 years at Prey Sar?

There's a fair amount of ice and a lot of baggies there so they might throw the book at him!

Unusual the passport only has his middle initial (P) and not his full middle name.

...but also appropriate in this case (you have to be a kiwi to get that reference) :wink:
