Mendicant monk faced arrest when he was invited to receive alms by Boeung Kak residents: Life under the "Thmil" regime

Synopsis: A mendicant monk faced arrest by security guards working for the Shukaku Inc. which belongs to Lao Meng Khin, a crony of Hun Xen, and by the Daun Penh authority. The unfortunate monk was begging alms when he entered Boeung Kak Lake by coincidence. At that time, several hundreds of villagers were commemorating the death of a police officer who committed suicide after losing his land to forced eviction. The villagers then asked the monk to bless and chant for the soul of the deceased police officer when security force for the Shukaku Inc. called the Daun Penh authority to take care of the monk. The monk was warned for his usual Buddhist action. Villagers said that the warning issued to a practicing monk is tantamount to a return to the Khmer Rouge regime all over again.

How can a monk be arrested by security guards from a private company??

They have absolutely no authority to do so and should be arrested themselves for acting illegally.

If all Khmers change the religion to Muslim, then all those TMIL will disappear very quickly, because they are afraid fom die. If we allow them to do what they wanted without thinking to poor Khmer people (Most of them live by more 1000 NGOs in Cambodia) one day Khmer will disappear from the world card.

The security will never have the authority to arrest anyone.... This is really illegal.
