Police Colonel Hout Chanyanaran, police chief of Daun Penh district, said the suspect, Soen Virak, 32-year-old, is accused of causing the death of 54 year old Sin Srey Srey, when he snatched her bag on 23 August at Sisowat Corner, Street 130, Village 2, Sangkat Phsar Kandal II 1, Khan Daun Penh, Phnom Penh.

We live here, well, most of you reading this do, and we are well aware of the bag snatchers here, but this really pissed me off. Some scumbag thief caused the death of a fellow Cambodian woman who survived the Pol Pot killing fields era.
Awful news.
