Angry Cambodian villagers attack three alleged bandits
One of the thieves who was still alive (Photo: DAP news)PHNOM PENH, March 26 (AFP) - A mob of about 400 Cambodians armed with stones, iron bars and wooden sticks, attacked three alleged bandits being held by police, killing two of them, police said Friday.
The incident took place on Thursday night after the three men allegedly used a gun to rob two sisters of their motorcycle on the outskirts of the Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh, said Born Sam Art, police chief of Dangkao district.
He said the women called the police, who engaged in a brief gunfight with the alleged robbers before arresting them.
But about 400 villagers from three nearby communes then "grabbed the robbers from police and attacked them with stones, iron bars, and wooden sticks," Born Sam Art told AFP.
He said two of the bandits were killed on the spot while a third remained critically injured. Police fired warning shots to disperse the vigilante group.
In a bizarre twist, the injured criminal was initially thought to be dead and taken away with the two other bodies, but awoke as Buddhist laymen were preparing to cremate them, Born Sam Art said.
Angry mobs often attempt to take justice into their own hands in Cambodia, where the judicial system is widely believed to be weak and corrupt.

A real tragic pictures, this kind of violence should not happen in the 21th century. No one like bandits or robbers, but we must deal with them according to the rule of law and civilized way. Why did the police let angry mobs kill the bandits before taking them to court? Did the arrested bandits pose any immediate threat to the villagers?
This is an unfortunate event. This action is the result of desperation and survival. Corruption from top down leaves a bad taste in the citizen. Not until the people understand and live a moral an ethic ways of life will cambodia become a leader in justice. Cambodia can set an example and become SEA first truely democratic society, all it takes is a vote.
So I pose this question, Name one South East asian country that is true democratic?
Ok, they are thieves. But how can we kill people without judging them? the risk that is huge for the innocent. our kingdom is doomed to be violent, lawless, no faith, the kingdom of nothingness
KHMER rob KHMER kill them all
last year youn rob and kill khmer at SIEM RIEP catch and release to youn.it is just illegal inmigration
thank you !good job police
we need to do the same to the land theives CPP senators.
I am not totally disagree with all the comments above. But I am sure your thought would coinside if the three mob were to gun point your sister or perhaps kill your family and/or innocent citizens.
Honestly, this villagers action will set a great example to other thieves! Yes, it is unhumae. That's the way to deal with mob.
Will speard these pictures and bogs through Twitters to the world to see the darkside of cruelty still take a stronghold within Cambodians minds and spirits.
This way is a very very affective way to get rid off thieves in Cambodia. Americans should do the same way in America to get rid off thieves, gangs...to light our streets and to save money too.
I urge all gangsters and thieves to take a good look at these pictures and promise yourself to get out of troubles and violents. Otherwise you will end up like this and don't blame any body but yourself.
no comment. villagers were just angried with the thieves, so they took justice for themselves. now thieves have to think twice before stealing again! simple as that, i guess! oh, not to mention, it's a wake up call to reform the justice system in cambodia so people don't have to resort to this savage act. it shows the lack of trust with the law, i guess! no body condone this type of act, however, it just goes to show people do not trust the system. that's all!
While this is wrong morally and legally, it is a strong signal about strong connection between citizens and their community. That is something to be proud of in a way. In most places around the world, America for example, you could get assaulted in the streets and people would just pass by and don't give a shit. That is something about that if you ask me.
Villagers should also do that to them corrupted government officials who rob their farmland and their livelihood. This the kind of message need to send to Hun Sen's government officials. People should not still depend on Hun Sen's corrupted court and judiciary system to resolve their issues. It will not!
If the three were to be Youn I can bet that the police would shoot villagers.
Dear bloggers, this is indeed a pictures from our motherland. Yes, we might call these people bandits or robbers back to the middle age period. One of our bloggers question -- this shouldn't be happen in the 21st century! I agreed with you, but this pure human insting. Which give me much worry about Cambodian condition. This just show the Cambodian lack the law to protect all people. One can ask anybody walk on the street...how does the law work? It only work for those that have money. In addition, if you happen to be the sons and daughters, you can drive an kill any Khmer on the street, and the law become blind (see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil) to these so call elite and the rulling class...does in this case, how one expect the people to have conchent, while the leaders, and the ruller have no conchent at all. They are entile to robb the country and have the millitary and to police to protect them?....call for millitary belong, police and court to people independent and to serve the Cambodian people, not the interest group of elite!!!!!!
Cambodian people the dark side of themselves and what they are capable off...
it is sign of desperation. It all bottled up because they cannot do anything to the powerful and rich. How can the gov.t not seriously working to curb these kind of violent acts? It is creating a society that no one is safe.
Hun Sen and his clans have been robbing Cambodian for years. It's time to show Hun Sen street justice while we still have a country calls Cambodia.
sadly, some of these stupid villagers may already have or will be in the same situation as the three robbers because of their poverty and violent and lawless behavior.
A motorcycle is not worth three lives!!! To the disturbed people who cheered this kind of things, you better not go to Cambodia and upset some village mobs because if you did, they might just scream "robber" and your fate would be sealed.
It started with the leadership - violent threats and actions to intimidate weaker people (by lawsuits or by military police use) and the obvious disrespect of laws while impunity is the norm.
that does not paint a good picture of Cambodia to the world. No one should have any comfort knowing that these people (about a few hudreds of them???) could turn quite brutal. only the two women who got robbed and beaten.
the lesson to the other robbers is to kill their victims, and the police, and the angry villagers at any cost first to stay alive.
just because these stupid mobs killed these two or three it will never mean that Cambodia is rid of poor and desperate unemployed people who last resort to get something is through stealing and robbing.
anyway, have you seen Jea Xophara fortified cluster of mansions? how about Jom Brasidh's seaside mansion? disgusting.
Well the reason the villagers took the matter into their own hands because the authorities in all field are so corrupted. But I still not like how in these day that Cambodian still acting very cruel and very uncivilized and barbaric to one other.
Next steps, the villagers, the poor and honest and innocent people will kill the three thieves/robbers seen on the covertable car or bill board around the country. That would be really cool to see their blood.
The Cambodian people are fed up with the corruption that is so rampant with the CPP-controlled government, its corrupt provincial governors, judicial courts, high ranking police and military generals.
The Cambodian people are tired of having their dignity and freedom being trampled. They no longer want to be disenfranchised....
As a result, the Cambodian people are taking the law into their own hands and rising up.
You will see more of this in the future.
Beware CPP....your days are numbered. Be prepared to see your loved ones' bodies floating on the Mekong.
I wish those three guys were Hun Sen, Heng Samrin, Chea Sim.
In Cambodia:
Steal a fuve buck you get kick on the head
Steal Hundred you get kille
Steal Million they afraid of you!
11:21PM you! impolited man!
BUT MAY YOU WISH COME THRUE, SOON!!!
But just one curiousity, which one of the three national thieves do you wish to survive??????
10:51Pm your stupid emage1 was your mother urgly?
The villagers should have trusted and let the competent judicial and court system in Cambodia handle these small cases. After all they (these courts and judges)have proven that they can handle much bigger cases like defamation by Mu Sochua and treason (by pulling wooden stakes on farmers' rice paddy) by Sam Rainsi.
Is the guy going to be kwach like Hun Sen??????
Or Hun Sen going to be beatup like the guy?????
11:27,
No she is not at all pretty, I'd say she looks as ugly as your wife and mother, you know, but much better than you.
Putho, Putho, Putho... why are we so cruel to each others? Those young men were thieves, but what pushes them to steal? Poverty, lack of education, ...etc.
Nothing can justify such cruelty. Will people start killing again like during the Pol Pot regime if they are endoctrinated by another psycho regime/leader?
May God bless the soul of those young men and give them a better luck in the next life.

Bandits are worse because Cambodia doesn't have DEATH sentence.
If we have death sentence, we may have less crime but we cannot guess how many wrong deaths would be because of judges corruption.
COPS of PRIVATE PARTY! don't care, they only care about Yuon nowaday. They won't harm any Yuon somehow when something occured even a bit of problem , we get blamed from top to bottom.
12:35Am how about life in prison with hard work???? would you like to get that?
11:34PM! can you see urgly mean not thing! show the real thing that count!
What do you expect from the most incompetent criminal justice system in the world. People are just fed up with these corrupted officials and decided to take law into their own hand. How cool it would be if these Cambodian people do the same to Hun Sen and his cronies.
In many circumstances,who would want to engage into this act?
May be the villagers do not have any alternative,for their safety and security?
As long as corruption persisted,implies that the powerful is still abusive, then cambodian society will be shattered.
Who is to blame?
kaun Khmer
Well, boggers, these vilaggers would be more difficult to kills new three kinds of Cambodia because they have best weapens (noodle, monosodiam, and sugar)for these people. Keep them poor, than they can governce by just noodle....the poor Khmer people in the ocountry side do not have time to think about long-term, because they are busy to put the food on their plate....
Khmer wait up...to maintain political stability in the country has a very high cost to Khmer future...Hun Sen regime must change...the CPP clant keep on saying that change must take time...but for how long...there must be goal to obtain. 13 years had been pass since the CPP have to sold power to develope the country...yes, one can see in pp, th grow of new building is expernatually, but how about the basic need of over 80% that you suppose to take care of? Manage the basic need of these people?
Hum Sen regime must change....
This look cruel!
Wish those three are Hun Xen, Chea Xim and Heng Xamrin. The villagers would be hero!
11:22PM, you are absolutely right!
*petty thieve get kick in the head.
*minor thieve get killed.
*major and superior thieve who robbed people hundred-thousands hecta of farmland and steal millions of dollars; people afraid of.
I love Cambodians but I hate Scambodia!
someone that said because of this, people shouldn't go to cambodia is so ignorant and stupid! illogical thinking! actually khmer people are very friendly, however, just don't ticks them off the wrong way, though, especially robbing, stealing, abusing, etc... i'm sure before they do this, there are a lot of witnesses to crime committed. khmer people don't just do this for no reason, you know! get educated already! this is a good case scenerio in the law studies or something, i think! again, this is where critical thinking skills is a must have for all human beings, really!
this old-fashioned justice is the legacy of stupid KR killing fields. what do you expect? stupid KR destroyed all fabric of civilized cambodia. it will take a generation to overcome the loss, really!
yes, legacy of KR era!
shut up already, some people learn it the hard way! you don't go around steal from people, especially girls! why don't they pick on someone their own size for a change, really!
this is a good example of lawlessness like during the KR era! errie, of course. now, we all can understand why having law and strong enforcement is very important in any society. let this be a good lesson for all to learn the hard way, really! and did you know the stupid KR was strong because they did not have any law; thus, the killing fields! as simple as that, really! now we all can see why the KR did what they did. as much as we all hated the stupid KR, however, they were a lesson for all humanity, really!
this is nothing, i've heard worse stories in the past in cambodian history because in the past they put thieves to be food for crocodiles and tigers, etc... plus, did you know in old japan as well, they cut your finger off for being a thief, too, you know! so, this is not unique to cambodia at all, really! get educated already, ok!
The leader of Cambodia Govenment is one aye, that wise never seen that going on in Cambodia socienty. Government officers or law enforcement agencies should be have policies to manage the country rule of law and respect human right in countryside, the suspects should bring them to justice. you can see the suspects commited crime and the villeges violent rule of law, so villeges their commited killing the suspects, the villeges have to prosecute bacause their also commited killed suspects.

Robbers will walk into jail from the front door and leave the back door. With a little bribery. That's what promoted these villagers to do what they did.Sometimes u gotta take matters into your own hands.
This incident reminded of LBC when one root takes one another life.
I wish somedays khmer people will turn their cruel minds to kill Hun Sen, Chea Sim, Heng Samrin.....
All these causes, due to the poors, hungry, fear and uneducate adopted by the neo-colonize-regime.
May God strikes the traitors and it servants!
Indeed these bandits are from CPP political party. They created instability for the nation so to scare Cambodian people from living peacefully.
They are doing these things to raise moneys to pay for Hun Sen'bodyguards pay role.
One day the khmer in sydney CBD will have also fallen to take his turn be a bandit too.
Khmer Angkor
Blame the Hun Sen government for the social unrest. Chaotic society is what the Hun Sen regime creating in Cambodia today. "Survival of the fittest" is what the Hun Sen regime conducting---the survival is the Hun Sen elites, while the dying is the Khmer people.
Sad to see Khmers Killing Khmers!
May be someone remember this. Sometime in 1974 a thief stole a bike at Battambang Lycee. The students chased after him and beat him up . He was almost dead.
khmers the whole nation should use this kind of mob force to overthrow the cpp corrupt gov't for good.
but unfortunetly they don't have that kind of courage and the mass of unity to do it sad but true.
11:30 you are stupid.
According to you the competent court has handled bigger problem that you refer to charge of treason of Rainsy (by pulling wooden stakes on farmers' rice paddy).
Why are you stupid and why is the court incompetent? Because as you wrote it yourselves, these are stakes on farmer's rice paddies - Not on international border.
So it show the the court is incompetent by sending to jail the rice farmers who had stakes forced on their farms.
Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Sometime people should just read their quotes before the post.
One word..
STUPID!
dear all,
This is the only way how to deal with thieves in Khmerland nowaday. There are a few enforcements factors that make people taking jungle by their own hands.
1- They are poor and desperate people
2- They can't relize on corupted autority.
3- This mean is more efficiencier then punishment by Cambodian today LAW.
4- This mean the survivors SCARE to death for lives, some do so in front of the people. To put them in jail term, soon after freedom, the same thieves will committe crime again and again.
This is the way to punish all thieves who are commited crim, any nation !
Hi all blogers above !!!
It is sad to see some thing like this. But, please don't try to put down Cambodian society. We are all human, the black, white, yellow, brown, are all the same.
Thing like this happens every day around the world, it is just not on the news.
Don't forget that it Happened in the US too. Do you remember the riot in California ????? Rodney King ???? The white truck driver got beat up on the street ????
Forget about education, it has nothing to do with human action. Do you remember the Lady professor (PHD) who gunned down her three colleages in the University recently ?????? The reason was they gave her a bad review, what do you think about that ??????
Another example is Tibet riot. There were a lots of pictures of death people on the street, killed or beaten by the Chinese security forces.
If you never been robbed by the gun point, you don't how it feel like. I do not believe that it is just happened one in the area (Rbbery). It may happened many time before but the villagers could not find them. You cannot call them thieves. I rather call them gangster because they are a group of people with guns. It is better to describe them.
I take this picture one thing only, it show to the criminal that the crime don't pay.

Very Cambodian thugs....birth out from ah Youn's septic tank....much like their master, ah chkea jouy mar rai hun sen ah kwak. They look so much alike ah jouy mar rai general shit head ah chea tara.
9:43 PM,
That is how Cambodia is! You should not be supprised!
Ki media shouldn't post these pictures. They are a bit graphic!
No matter how desperate these crooked thieves are, they shouldn't have died that way. These stupid villagers should have turned them to the authority.
disguised freaked poor people!
All Khmers,
Turn your anger on Ah Me Chor Hun Sen and his cronies inside Khmer Hanoi's puppet government.
Hun Sen is the leader of these tieves,land grabs,,,,Cambodia for sale.
An armed uprising should be organised to topple this oppressed, corruptive Hanoi's puppet regime.
Otherwise all of you will be Hanoi's slaves on your ancestors lands.
Cambodia is a Democratic Country.
5:17 AM,
you dumb ass need to learn english a bit more....go and look up the word "sarcasm" or "sarcastic" and really understand the meaning before showing the world again how dumb you are!
5:17 AM,
There is a disclaimer - sarcasm requires sophisticate understanding which is lacking in some people with brain damage, dementia, or autism.
So, people should not judge too harshly on you for blindly missing the sarcastic nature in 11:30 PM's post.
I hope at least one of them is the son of general or minister.
I like to see the villagers killing any of Youn bandit, and how the govt will react to it. This is to show the world that Cambodia has a very weak law. Where is the fucking real law?
most of the cpp'member use to be Gangs ,bandits,so how peoples expect the government of hun sen run cambodia by laws.
This shows lawlessnes of Cambodia. This shows people do not trust justice system in Cambodia.
On the other side, villagers who committed this, will one day become violent as well. This is very bad action. I do not want my children to see this.
This kind of violence will only encourage criminals to be more violent. They will be more likely to shoot victims so that the victims cannot call for help.
9:07 AM,
Cambodia is NOT a Democratic Country. It is a FREE Country!
Turn your dumb ass anger at ah kwack hun sen too....you loosers!
10:31 PM,
Finally, we have some smart Khmers like yourself. I agree....if Khmers get wiped out by ah Hun Sen and his army....so be it! At least, we save Cambodian nation from ah jouy mar rai hun sen, his gangs, and ah Youn.
One day, ah jouy mar rai hun sen, his family, and his gangs will die this way!
i agree with 7:19am for pointing out other scenerio from all over the world. it is wrong to assume that this kind of mobbing is only happening in cambodia while other nation would block this kind of scene from the media. and who to say that cambodia has no freedom? if there is no freedom, then we would see this grotesque scene being shown here, really! blame no one, it's people's nature to fight back, that's why the rule of law is important because without it, people will resort to the stone age way or dark age way like this. why have law? because it protect people and reassures them of justice. of course, villagers shouldn't have done this, and gangsters shouldn't rob people. no excuses in the world can justify either side for doing what they did. you have to understand that every people are individual; and if they committed crime amongst angried or under educated villagers, you'll see this kind of mobbing. we should not condone either one of this whether the villagers or the gangsters . remember, even the police were afraid of the mobbing. so, don't blame the police for not using the weapons to calm everyone down. i think the police was doing their job, however, the unruly crowd seemed to get out of hand so even police with weapon yielded to them. so, stop saying gov't and authority use force because this showed the opposite i.e. the police did not use force on the people. anyway, it's called mobbing, and it is uncontrollable; people take the law into their own hands.
cambodia is the country of Mer Chor Batpasa Tevada hun yuon.Noone can rules excetp my clans.
Chheam Thork[yeap] former bodoi vc in prey Veng Province ,his close friend is Mer bodoi Sok cong.
Now why dont the villagers do the same thing to those that rob their lands
don't push the envelope, 12:42pm, nobody is taken anyone's land, etc... and don't fight with authority because you will never win, ok! think about it. be educated and be civilized for a change. this kind of thing could happened anywhere in the world; simply put, people are unruly in nature, that's why a nation needs the rule of law to protect and control unruly attendency of people everywhere. it could happen in your backyard with the police or authority intervention, etc..., really! please think logically! not wise to encourage undereducated villagers to fight with authority. hey, this is not KR regime, you know.
Typical Khmer savagery, no better than apes.
That village will be NO thieft for the next 3 year,this is what happen in cambodia when the people are being judge.
This is wrong! In Aust, we have a law to protect everyone equally, even for thieves and if a case like this happened in Aust, the whole nation would condemn the management of the police force (questioning the Minister for poor management) that is why Police usually have a "Ute" as to once they caught the thieves straight away they locked them up in the Ute to protect them from being beaten by the mob. What a waste of young lives. Again these thieves could have rehabilitated, like teach them or help them to learn to live a decent lives just like good people do because no one is perfect and we all know that people can change. Sometimes, there are lack of education about morality that is knowing what is right or wrong and that is why we demand to have the laws in place to protect everyone equally. Again, you can find material things but you can not find a precious life. Jesus once said "who without sin cast the first stone" and no one did, because no one is perfect. Aust
THis is just so wrong! These thieves would of received jail time and they would of had to serve it, because they are not rich and powerful. Remember the only ones who receive any sort of impunity would be the rich and powerful. I understand that the villagers are angry at the thieves, but they did not have to do that to them. They didn't kill anyone, they were trying to rob, because they are so poor and desperate for money. This is no excuse for their act, but they did not deserve this at all.
I agree with some of the statements made by some of the people here, channel this anger and violence at the land-grabbing thieves (CPP officials and blood sucking tycoons)
Thailand when it was under Thaksin, in the south has perpetrating a lot of killing and murders even with any Thai PM has continue killing Khmer on the Khmer/Thai border too.
cambodia needs to rid of stone age mentality. this is stone age mentality echoing abel and cain in that kill each other; cambodia is not that lawless, really! it's the management of thing in this particular area that is uncontrollable. of course, angried people will kill if they can get away from it all. that is why we all must demand the rule of law. only the rule of law allows us to live side by side peaceful; otherwise we will all be killing one another over everything and anything, really. think about it! stone age mentality! it's kind of outdated in this day and age all over the world, however, in some area of the world, of course, we still see this kind of practice. image without the law, we all be killing each other and get away with it! respect the law, ok! can't win with the law!
10:62 PM,
You said that Khmer people cannot win the law? Are you living in Cambodia right now? Do you know what side the law is on? The law is on the side of the elite (to protect those elite), and the law is on the side of the people that have money. Money speak justic for the rich in Cambodia. For the poor, there is no law on their side. So what the poor have, they have sticks, stones, their pain, suffering, opression and anger as their weapon to defend these thief.
In addition, why are you so concern with pitty cream like this, this is nothing compare to thief of selling Cambodia and Cambodian people (prostition to in the name of development of tourism, work abroad, marriage with foreigners)....there problems is like cancer which is need to be taken care off...Khmer waik up...before the KR regime come back again...because it is easy to recruit the poor and training them to be a killers(well, just like some of Hun sen body gards right now - they could kill you for entertainment...). Hun Sen blin can see better than majority of you who have two eyes...and can't see a thing beyon your nose....
Peace to all....
If they are real bandits, just kill Them !
At least, nobody else will get harm !
If you let the police do the work !
They will release these bandits...
And the consequences are more tragic than killing these bandits !
Ah chhkuot 3:33 AM, ah haeng nouv srok prey pshaiy nah ah, ban chea chenh mork khmean chbab toumlorb eiysoss? You are supposed to be better than the bandits (on the streets and in gov't houses)
If every body known the consequences of wrong doing our world will be Heaven?...But whole alot people in the our world think they can running away of wrong doing. Mr.Hun Sen please inforce the law of land.Thank you!!!
This is the result of injustic in society. People have no trust for Cambodians justice system. The current government breeding incrimals. Some of the poor resort to criminal behavior for surviving while the powerful and the riches continue their criminal behavior with impunity...and it is so sad to see Cambodia is full of these kind of people...
why? maybe outdated mentality? maybe ignorance? maybe greed? do we know the truth? remember what the wised ones taught us, violence does not solve violence. only the rule of law rules, really! it is a lesson in life, isn't it! wake up people!
PLEASE KI-MEDIA REMOVE THIS PICTURE FROM THE NET. IT IS HORRIBLE ACT. POOR THEM, THE POLICE SHOULDN'T ALL THIS TO HAPPEN! just put them in jail, enough! after all, two dead for a price of one motorbike. I can see khmer are not afraid to kill at all, it's scary..and they can only brave to attack their own blood. Please remove, we have seen enough. Thanks
KI should've warn people of the gruesome scene as not everyday has the guts to see this kind of photo! yes, please remove it or block it. it is sick picture, not right at all. i mean the thieves may be wronged for stealing by they everybody deserve justice. we say let the law deal with them, can't encourage people to do this because no matter what, it's never right in the eye of the law! only happened in the stone age or dark age era, and shouldn't be allowed to happened again in this modern world, really! yes, we get the point and seen enough. please have some dicretionary warning before posting this kind of photo here or anywhere, really!
remember the saying two wrongs don't make it right! i mean as mad and angried we maybe, we must respect the law. this is so uncivilized, echoing the KR regime, etc...! not right at all, really! we get the point, but let's not make it a bad habit like this, really! let authority deal with theif, and if authority is incompetent, then complain to the appropriate superior to get them removed or somthing, but by all mean avoid taking law into your own hands! not right! have some moral, ethical conduct, please! please help to educate these ignorant villagers not to do this again. sad, this this like a war zone all over again, not right!
this is why everyone love asians
I'm extreamely sad after seeing such news. I pray for the deaths. They are just suspects, we are not yet sure if they were involved. Again, stupid police should have protect them & let The law deal with it. Villagers are mostly uneducated, they are easily out of control. Those villagers that killed the two suspect should be served in jail for the killing. If Khmer people doesn't change this attitude, more and more violence will escalated. What ever it is, they aren't deserve to die but jailed! Please remove this picture, it is seen enough.
It is difficult sometimes to blame the villagers who are always living in fear bz of these bandits and no one used to help and solves the problems for them. Think of why do villagers behave like this??? because they don't believe,trust, and value the proposed alternatives and messy laws...and don't believe also the one who always just stay at homes, write comments in English, and do nothing...yab!!! everyone should take some effective actions to improve the situation!
