A man has shown his grievance in a really tragic
manner after getting really angry with a woman on
the street.
The 21-year-old man, was arrested by Police on
Thursday, June 23, over the murder of a female
major with the Ministry of Defence in the capital’s
Tuol Kork district, Cambodia.
According to The PP Post, the victim, identified as
Ly Davy, 36, was stabbed to death on Wednesday,
June 22 as she was walking down the street to buy
food. She was stabbed to death with a vegetable
knife in the back, on the left side.
The knife pierced the heart and she died instantly.
Sderng Sarith said Mei Kimhong confessed to the
crime, adding that he killed the victim, Ly Davy,
because she was rude and insulted him.
"The arrest was made after the authorities checked
security camera [footage] from a villager living
nearby, and they saw the suspect stabbing the
victim," Sarith confirmed.
Police arrested Kimhong, who confessed during
interrogation. According to Kimhong’s confession,
he disliked Davy because she looked down on him
and would spit in his direction every time she
passed him.
This behavior, he said, aggravated him and he had
been planning to kill her for some time.
The police accounts show that Davy was headed to
the market to buy food, when Kimhong, riding his
motorcycle, stabbed her in the back with a knife,
only to make a quick escape once nearby villagers
were alerted to the incident.
Kimhong, who is a mathematics student at the
Royal University of Phnom Penh, has been charged
with intentional murder and is currently being held
in the Tuol Kork district police station.
