On 19 December, the Phnom Penh municipal court issued a detention order in Prey Sar jail against the pharmaceutical company chairman involved in importing medicines to Cambodia, under the charge of falsifying the quality of expired medicines. 38-year-old Khartik Sahay, an Indian holding a Canadian citizenship, was arrested by the police on 17 December after a search in the company revealed proofs of medicines quality falsification. Judge Suon Samnang of the Phnom Penh municipal court, issued an arrest warrant of Khartik Sahay, and ordered his jailing in Prey Sar prison while waiting for the investigation in this case of falsifying the quality of expired medicines. Khartik Sahay could face severe penalties is he is found guilty.

    Hopefully, he won't be able to bribe his way out through Cambodia's corrupt judicial system and get away with his crime.

    Hope this guy will have a fair trial. Maybe the arrest is just the trick orchestrated by Hun Sen police and his courts to go after his money.
