THREE JAILED IN MISTRESS'S SLAYING
Three men in Battambang province have been sentenced to prison for killing a woman who was the mistress of one of the men’s father. The provincial court ruled that the men must also pay 15 million riels (US$3,602) in compensation to the victim’s family. The slaying happened in July when one of the men asked the two others to help him kill the victim. One of the suspects said he was forced to be involved and was sentenced to eight years, whereas the other men received 16 years.
