SEX WORKER FEARS FOR SELF, BAILS OUT OF VEHICLE
A 21-year-old masseuse told police that she decided to leap out of a car on Monday night in Phnom Penh’s Russey Keo district because she suspected that the driver might rape or torture her and not pay for her sex service. The girl agreed to sex with the man for $30. However, he said he only had $10 after she got in the car. She stayed in the car until he proposed driving her to a place other than the one they had agreed upon. She started to feel that the man was not reliable and jumped out of the car. The man drove off in panic and overturned the vehicle. It was later reported that he was penniless, and that the car belonged to a Korean company.

THE VERDICT ON THE HANGING IS ...SUICIDE
A moto-taxi driver was spotted hanging from a tree close to a pond last Friday in Dangkor district’s Choam Chao commune. No one could identify the 40-year-old victim. It was thought at first that the man was killed and left hanging, so police didn’t do anything with the body while they waited for an expert assessment. Following input from the court and a hospital, it was revealed that the man hanged himself.
