British Man ANDREW GORDON Found Dead in Phnom Penh Rented Room, St 136

Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): On December 10, 2019, a 57-year-old British man, ANDREW GORDON, was found dead in a rented room, in a house on street 136, Sangkat Psar Kandal, Khan Don Penh, Phnom Penh.

The British man has been renting his apartment on St 136 for some months now. However, recently the neighbors noticed that they had not seen the British man for some days, and there was a suspicious smell coming from his room. The landlord was called, and he came with a key and entered the room; Andrew Gordon was lying there dead, and had apparently been there for some time.

Image
The specialist police, the prosecutor, and the minor crime brigade of the Department of Investigation and Procedure (Immigration), went to the scene and examined the body. After the examination, the police concluded that the victim died of a heart attack.

[CEO News: Drugs are not mentioned in the article, but this photo, which seems to indicate a positive drug test, was published in the Khmer news item.]

The victim's belonging were sent to the department of investigation and procedure of the general department of immigration.

The body was sent to keep at Stueng Meanchey pagoda. RIP, and condolences to the family and friends of the deceased.

the minor crime brigade of the Department of Investigation and Procedure

Poor guys are working so hard, but never get the credits from those nasty barang, esp. when called Bob...

Maybe he was a fan of boiled egg, sausage meat and breadcrumbs? The name Scotch Egg was already taken!
