8:00 am, 4 June 2020. A case of a one-year-old boy, father scavenges for a living, mother in Prey Sar prison. Child fell out of bed and into the sewage canal next to their shack in Village 5, Sangkat Phsar Doeum Thkov, Khan Chamkarmon, Phnom Penh.
The boy was names Rin Thearith, his father, Rin Piseth, 41, and Ros Pheap, 39, is currently in prison in Prey Sar.
Before the incident, the boy's father woke up at 2 am to scavenge, letting his son sleep with three other siblings. When he returned home, the boy was missing and they searched for him. He had fallen through a wall of a house down into a ditch in the sewage drain, and was drowned.
Immediately after receiving the information, authorities went to the scene for an autopsy and confirmed that the boy had actually died from drowning in the canal and handed over the boy's body to the family for a traditional funeral.
