A court in Cambodia is to pronounce its verdict in the case of a Russian businessman accused of sexually abusing a 14-year-old.

Aleksandr Trofimov was arrested last year on suspicion that he had abused as many as nineteen underage girls. The 41-year-old man denies the charges.
If convicted, he could face between ten and twenty years in prison.

Trofimov has been living in Cambodia for three years. His company received government permission to develop an island into a tourist resort.
