Cambodia News (Kampong Chhnang): On 12 January 2022, the Homicide Investigation Team (HIT) and the Scientific Technical Team of the Child Protection Unit (CPU) attended the courtroom of Kampong Chhnang Provincial Court to hear the verdict on 39-year-old Non Chan Sareth, who was found guilty of the murder of his wife and four children, aged 9, twins aged 7, and a 3 year old infant, on May 9, 2021 .
In announcing the verdict, Judge Y Thavorak said, "These crimes are full of deliberate cruelty and brutality and must carry the maximum penalty." The perpetrator was therefore sentenced to a full life imprisonment, which under the laws of the Kingdom of Cambodia means a life sentence in prison with no chance of pardon or release.
