DRUG USERS FREED BY SVAY RIENG COURT Svay Rieng provincial court on Friday released a couple arrested in Bavet town on June 18 for drug distribution and trafficking, under the reasoning that the suspects were just drug users and were not actually traffickers. A Svay Rieng provincial military police official stated that 47-year-old Mam Sovun and his Vietnamese wife, 20-year-old Leng Ghong Tham, were arrested last month in a guesthouse while in possession of drugs, drug paraphernalia, two cellphones and an artificial penis.

COMEDIAN PREVAILS IN FRAUD LAWSUIT A 62-year-old man was sentenced Monday by Phnom Penh Municipal Court to six months in prison and ordered to pay US$1,000 in compensation to You Sok Sothea, a comedian better known as Ka Choy, whom he was convicted of defrauding. Rainsy Chan Dara was paid $4,000 by the comedian on assurances he could get her a job in the National Assembly. His failure to do so upset You Sok Sothea, leading her to demand her money back from the con man. KAMPUCHEA THMEY

MAN STABS AND KILLS NIECE, CONFESSES A man who stabbed a 14-year-old girl to death in broad daylight on Tuesday as she rode her bicycle to buy food near her home in Kampot's Dang Toung district, was captured by police on Wednesday. The killer was identified as Kang Phos, 27, an uncle of victim Ghan Chan Than. After his arrest, the perpetrator told police that his niece had cursed at him after he jokingly crashed his bicycle into hers. The suspect added that he found his niece's language so offensive that, in his blinding rage, he couldn't help stabbing her 11 times. RASMEY KAMPUCHEA

GIN FUELS ASSAULT ON MOTORBIKE
In just about every police blotter someone has been drinking GIN. Is this just the PPP's word for alcohol or do the people in the provinces ONLY drink GIN? 
Alcohol is necessary so that a man can have a good opinion of himself, undisturbed by the facts

You should know that Blotterworld is a blissfully simple place to live in. The only form of entertainment is 'rock dancing', the only form of violence is 'chopping', and all young people are 'spoilt teenagers'. It makes the vocabulary range of The Sun positively Joycean.

Almost certainly, if you can specify which unforgettable evening. PPPPB managed a dodgy pun yesterday: " GIRL NEARLY CROAKS DURING FROG HUNTTen-year-old Hing Srey Leak was pierced in the neck with an arrow on Friday morning while she was hunting for frogs with her 15-year-old aunt, Roth Chhaily." http://www.phnompenhpost.com/index.php/2009082427918/National-news/police-blotter-24-aug-2009.htmlMore seriously, a friend of mine was standing next to lady who was shot dead by Psar Kandal at 5.30 Monday. Wonder if that'll make it into today's PPPB.

FAST CAR, WOMAN LEAD TO CRASH A drunk Chinese man crashed his car into a cement barrier on Norodom Boulevard while he was making out with his Vietnamese girlfriend. Witnesses reported that the couple continued to go at it after the car crashed. Neither was injured in the incident.
Wish I'd been a witness - sounds a hoot. On his way from Walkabout perchance?

Bake me a cake or I'll pop a arrow in yo' ass...
Cake-lover shoots obstinate wife Ven Sen, a 41-year-old farmer, was sent to Preah Sihanouk provincial court after being accused of murdering his wife with a cross-bow in the province’s Prey Nop district. Police said that last Thursday, a drunken Ven Sen ordered his wife to gather wood for a fire in order to bake a cake for the Pchum Ben festival.

Police Blotter 28/09/09
FOREIGNERS FIGHT ON STREET 51

A security guard at the establishment – the Walkabout Hotel and Bar on streets 51 and 174 – sustained a head injury while trying to break up the scuffle.
Neighbours described the event as not uncommon. The three men were taken into custody and will face charges in connection with the incident, police said. KAMPUCHEA THMEY

The only punchline was each other. I mean of course they would get into a fight.
Oz to Irishman - You looking at my girl. Irishman replies - No I'm looking at your dog!. Scottsman noticed they were distracted and polished off both their drinks.
And that's how the fight started.
Enjoy life cos you only get one chance at it.
