A 63 year old Swedish pedophile will spend the next six and a half years in a prison in Cambodia. The sentence was confirmed by a court yesterday.
The man was earlier this year convicted for raping his adoptive son and two other children. He appealed but the verdict was confirmed in a higher instance. If he wants to appeal once more, he has got one month to do so.
The 63 year old says he lived at the same hotel room as one of the boys for several months and that they took showers together but denies any sexual assault or rape. The boy also took back the accusations in the secondary court but the judges did not believe his new story.
According to the daily newspaper Svenska Dagbladet, the man has said to them that he has paid 11 000 USD to four judges in order to get acquitted. These claims were also brought up in court but the man now denies having said this.
The verdict in Cambodia makes the Swedish police close its own investigation against the man.
