Phnom Penh Municipal Court on Tuesday said a Cambodian woman has been charged with illegally detaining two Cambodian children though she said the children themselves should be charged, a court officer said.
A court source told DAP News Cambodia that Phe Sophea, 28, caught two children in her house after claiming they stole money from her “many times.”
The two Cambodian children in question were said to be 8 years old. Phnom Penh Municipal Court Prospector Sok Kalyan accused Sophea of wrongdoing in the arrest and detention of the two children on August 31, 2009, but Judge Chan Madyna considered her actions more leniently in light of the fact that she has a baby, the source stressed.
The two children and their mother stole more than 15 times for a total of over US$600 as well, claimed the accused woman, the source continued.
Both the arrested and accused women are neighbors.
Sophea was released partly in view of the fact that the accused woman has a baby, “so we can not keep her imprisoned right now,” the source added.
“We will call her to judge next time, but the accused woman that police sent to court … did not file to us.”
