HIV-POSITIVE MAN ATTEMPTS RAPE
A 39-year-old HIV-positive man stripped naked, held his penis and chased a 71-year-old woman in a bid to rape her Friday, police said, adding that the attack happened after the victim's dog bit the perpetrator's hen in Kandal province's Ang Snoul district. However, the man said he attacked Pen Yien because he was depressed about having an incurable disease. The ageing woman managed to escape from the man, who was arrested a few hours later.
