A few months after I left the jail, a German was brought in. I went back a few times to financially support the prisoners of my cell and to visit my best friend there, khamray. I met the German once while I was talking to Khamray. I believe that indeed his name was Christophe. But no, I didn't spend jail time together with him.Bong Burgundy wrote: ↑Mon Feb 15, 2021 8:53 pmStefan, in Mondulkiri jail, did you come across a neo-Nazi German, named Christopher Flora?
Did you two get on?

But now I know that according to the UN reports for several years in a row, Venezuela, Congo and Cambodia are the three countries in the world with the highest rate of justice corruption.Stefan Struik wrote: ↑Tue Feb 16, 2021 2:07 pmTo be honest, my knowledge back then of as well the Cambodian justice system as the Vietnamese justice system is 0.Bong Burgundy wrote: ↑Mon Feb 15, 2021 10:02 pmVietnamese media report about Dung’s death: https://m.plo.vn/phap-luat/dung-cam-che ... 39259.html
Apparently he was released on bail to go to hospital and died there.
He was facing only 3 years in Vietnam. In Cambodia he was sentenced to 18 years. Is that why Stefan urged him to go across the border?

You paid a $25,000 bribe to the judges and the prosecutors so that your 2 year prison sentence would be suspended after 8 months. You also faked having a brain tumor in prison to make it easier to release you early. You even praised yourself for how good you were acting.Stefan Struik wrote: ↑Tue Feb 16, 2021 2:18 pmBut now I know that according to the UN reports for several years in a row, Venezuela, Congo and Cambodia are the three countries in the world with the highest rate of justice corruption.
You can't have your cake and eat it. Either you don't like corruption and spend your 2 years in prison or you pay bribes and pretend to have a brain tumor to be released early. You actively took part in the same corruption that you are now complaining about.
Clearly you enjoy the Cambodian rate of justice corruption, otherwise you would have served the 2 years in prison that you were legally sentenced to.
When I first got arrested, the judges had asked for a $20,000 bribe to make a deal for a favorable hearing and quick release without conviction, but because the politicians in Phnom Penh got involved in the case they could not follow up with that plan anymore. Instead, they asked my lawyers to let me wait until the attention from Phnom Penh had died. When it eventually did, we made the deal. I now had to pay $25,000 to the main judge, which would be divided between the judges and the prosecutors. This payment was to ensure that I got a small sentence of 2 years and that I would be released after only 8 months on health grounds. This was the deal, and this time around they were able to agree with me because the attention of the powerful and influential people in Phnom Penh had subsided.
I requested to go from the province hospital to a big hospital there. When I got there, I wanted to bribe a doctor to declare that I had a huge brain tumor in my head. This would be the perfect tool for the judges to let me out earlier.
I played my part and acted as if I suffered severe headaches from my fictitious brain tumor.
You also act as if the only reason you were sentenced to prison is because the Netherlands revoked your citizenship. You naturalized as a Cambodian by paying a $50,000 bribe to be bogusly written into a family book as Khmer, despite not having any Cambodian ancestry, in 2014. In 2016 you went to prison and you say that you lost your citizenship in 2016.I must have acted so well. I never knew I had such Hollywood-worthy skills up my sleeve.
You should have lost your Dutch citizenship in 2014 when you naturalized as a Cambodian. The only reason why you didn't is because you kept your Cambodian citizenship a secret from them and they only found out about it in 2016 when you begged for consular assistance.
You regained your Dutch citizenship through naturalization and you say that the Netherlands was wrong to revoke your citizenship in 2016. You regained your citizenship through a technicality where the EU court has ruled that citizenship may not be revoked if the person whose citizenship is being revoked would go through hardship as a result. What you don't seem to understand, or actively ignore to score sympathy points, is that you were not a Dutch citizen already since 2014.
If the authorities had taken the time to investigate your case individually they would have found that you became Cambodian in 2014 and lost Dutch citizenship automatically then. Not 2 years later when you went to prison for saving a child torturer from serving 18 years in Cambodian prison.The consequences of automatically revoking one’s citizenship are unimaginable. In my case, one of the outcomes was 8 months in jail, a lot of money lost, as well as mental and emotional scars; all of which could have been avoided if only the authorities had taken time to follow the due process and investigate my case individually.
You blame the Netherlands for you going to prison. You don't blame yourself and you don't blame Dung. You claim that you would not have gone to prison had you not lost your citizenship because the laws in the Netherlands are different.
You have not taken any responsibility at all and show no sympathy to the 2-year old child that your boyfriend repeatedly beat, electrocuted and sexually assaulted on your farm while recording himself doing so 49 times. It's all about poor Stefan who didn't know Dutch laws, and despite having all this money to throw around didn't spend even one dollar on Dutch legal assistance before naturalizing as a Cambodian.
Poor Stefan Willy Wonka just wanted to open a chocolate farm. Is there anybody else that you care about besides yourself?

Maybe you are just projecting bullshit about yourself? You're wrong, but this isn't about me anyway. I'm not the person being filmed having drug fueled orgies you wrote about in your book, that was yourself. You're pretended naivete is particularly pathetic. If someone committed a crime in the Netherlands, would you help them get to Germany so they could report the crime?Stefan Struik wrote: ↑Tue Feb 16, 2021 2:02 pmit would be a wise thing, if you accept the truth and not base your opinions on some assumptions.Lucky Lucan wrote: ↑Tue Feb 16, 2021 1:07 amI see it more as an ill-thought out attempt to regain credibility. Like Prince Andrew's bumbling attempt, it's ended up backfiring and making him look like a callous and selfish piece-of-shit.
maybe it is also because you are living in a sort of foreigner bubble , not being much involved of what is really happening in Cambodia .. maybe it is also a language problem. In any case, all Cambodians from the MDk province who were closely involved in the case, from high till low ranks, seem to understand the truth (although the involvement of the niece and the gang remained unknown in Cambodia but were discussed more in Vietnam).
The fact is that many Cambodians in the province helped me, supported me, including the parents of the boy who testified in court that I was not at all to blame for what had happened.
Truth is precious. And I cherish the truth.
https://www.khmer440.com/k/2021/02/pris ... boyfriend/Giang installed hidden cameras in Struik’s bedroom filming his orgies and drug taking with Vietnamese men. She started drugging Dung by spiking his juice drinks with meth in order to control him. Dung used to drug himself with meth, but she drugged him, too. Giang also forced Dung’s 7-year old half-sister to smoke meth, threatening to harm her if she told anybody about it.
They eventually had enough of the evil niece and kicked her out of the apartment. Giang started to blackmail Dung with videos where he was torturing the 2-year old child. One of the 49 videos she had of Dung showed him torturing the boy on Struik’s cacao farm in Mondulkiri. She demanded that he pays her $45,000 or the videos would be revealed to the public.
The videos were posted online and Struik sent his boyfriend to Vietnam. He claims that he sent him to Vietnam telling him to surrender to the police. It is hard to believe, because the crimes were committed in Cambodia and the punishment in Vietnam for torturing a child in Cambodia is much milder than it is in Cambodia.
Knowing that the Cambodian Child Protection Unit had started a manhunt searching for the culprits, Struik seemed relaxed. He told the police that he was too busy to be interrogated but that he would hand himself in the next day once he had taken care of some business.
Around 6pm Struik and his employees were drinking and eating at the guesthouse where they were staying. A waiter familiar with Struik came up to him and showed him a video of Struik’s boyfriend torturing the boy on his phone. Struik sounds surprised when he writes that the waiter who was usually very friendly towards him seemed irritated, almost angry, having seen the torture video.
Shortly after a group of police officers ran towards Struik and his coworkers. While being handcuffed, an “Australian man who seemed to be their leader” grabbed Struik by the arm and said: “you come with me”. The Australian man was James McCabe, Executive Director of the Cambodian Child Protection Unit.
Struik did not appreciate McCabe’s work, which normally consists of investigating child murders. He wrote that McCabe’s “Nazi-style approach to the case” made him angrier by the second. McCabe wanted Struik to lead the police so that they could make an arrest, but Struik loved Dung so much that he wanted to protect him from the “Nazi” Child Protection Unit.
It is hard to feel even an ounce of regret from Struik’s writing. Throughout the book he spends more time detailing the nice-looking bananas that he harvested on the same day that the torture videos went viral and bragging about how he could do 100 pushups while incarcerated in Mondulkiri prison, much more than the 22-year young and fit handsome boy locked up for drugs who couldn’t do 10.
He only mentions the child twice in the book. The first time he describes how rich and famous people threw money at him when the crimes became public, making it sound almost as if the torture had done him a huge favor and turned him into some kind of rockstar. When Struik writes that “the poor boy in the alleged torture video became a national celebrity”, it feels like he doesn’t take the crime very seriously and that it may even have improved the boy’s life. As if his Vietnamese psychopath boyfriend had saved him from poverty.
“Such a minor issue with far-reaching consequences”, he writes unironically.
The second time the child is mentioned is in a parenthesis after Struik explains how Dung died in early 2020 because “his body was weak from all the meth”. Struik writes a few words about how he hopes that the child will recover from the trauma. It feels forced.
In the rest of the book, Struik writes in great detail about how his cellmates rubbed crushed goat bones on their genitals reading Arab prayers believing that their penises would become bigger, and how jealous he was of a transexual who could pay $500 per month for a VIP cell when Struik was rejected despite offering more money. How upset he was that Dutch diplomats brought him fancy cheese and books, but they did not pressure the Cambodian court to release him.
Does this creep still live in Cambodia? If so it would be a good idea to report his book to the authorities. I'm sure they'll be thrilled to learn that he duped them and then boasted about it in a publication.

Mr Struik has made, by my count, 14 posts since creating this thread. During this time he has not once shown even fleeting concern as to the welfare of a tortured child.
Whether Mr Struik is guilty by association of any such criminal activity is not for me to say; but I'm pretty sure he's a dickhead.

Did anything happen to the niece? How is the child? Receive any compensation at least. If it happened on my property I would feel very very indebted to the victim.

So :
Thread's benefits to the kid : none
Thread's benefit to the OP : none
Thread's benefit to the forum ?
Advice maybe for the noobs: If you come to a country with much less income per capita / repressed society / recovering country (often a combo) & you have a naughty behavior (orgies, drugs, fistyfights, worse) & you look obviously from far far away (or from an unwelcome ethnic group / Viets, Nigerians / Chineses...) and showing to have money, prepare yourself to ripple effects that might impact your life (and most importantly innocent people) in ways that you wouldn't even imagine on a bad acid day.
Living here in peace / harmony / respect (pick your favorite) is all about bringing your best and avoid dead angle fuckups by being precautious and careful, because it's not really the same comforting social setting that you have been raised around. There is room enough to have fun, but the local way doesn't define the rules, and if you loose your own compass, you're lost.
"Yeah but i'm smarter" -> won't help when shit comes from crazies/mean/dumb people who don't plan much. Shit happens randomly on a large scale here, even with the best behavior.
Positive enough as a conclusion to lock it and throw the key away ?

Because you find it distasteful?
Personally I don't need to "bring my best" to avoid aiding and abetting (at the very least) violent child abusing sociopath meth heads.
Keep this open, let Struik destroy himself and let as many people as possible see what a nasty fuck head he is.
Better still, get some of the local English language hacks and local Khmer language press on the job too
How much compensation did the child get? Stefan any plans to help the victim in the future?

I noticed that most of you have fixed beliefs about certain things. And I can understand that it is difficult to discuss when the truth appears to be different than a belief.
Let me just for one last time repeat what has been proven.
You don't have to accept the truth but at least you have taken notice of the truth.
So, what has been proven?
1. the timing of the video and the torture was around August/ September 2016 (proven according to Cambodian court and the Vietnamese court)
2. the crime and the video had been executed by my ex-boyfriend (proven according to Cambodian court)
3. the crime and the video had been executed by my ex-boyfriend and his niece (proven according to Vietnamese court)
4. I was not involved in the horrible crime and I also was not aware of either the torture, the video or the blackmail; until the day before I got arrested myself (6 Dec 2016) (proven according to Cambodian court, the Vietnamese court & Dutch ministry of Justice)
5. I didn't help my ex-boyfriend run from justice or help him running to Vietnam. I advised him to report himself to the police but advised him to report himself to the Vietnamese police, so the police could also arrest the other Vietnamese co-perpetrator(s) in Vietnam (proven according to Cambodian court, the Vietnamese court & Dutch ministry of Justice)
6. I was convicted for not reporting a crime to the police within 24 hours after I got information about this through facebook (Cambodian court)
7. according to the Dutch Ministry of Justice it is not a crime if you don't report a crime video I witnessed on facebook, to the police. Even more, there is no legal obligation in the Netherlands (and probably in the justice system of most countries) for anyone to report a crime, when someone gets to know about a crime 3-4 months after the crime took place.

Are you really this stupid? The crime was committed in Cambodia. Cambodia is a separate country to Vietnam. Vietnamese police have no jurisdiction in any country except Vietnam.Stefan Struik wrote: ↑Fri Feb 19, 2021 1:26 pm
