Ms Mao was arrested on Monday and is now in prison pending trial. Captain Pov Sreng, a department police officer, said that according to police investigations, Ms Mao in May recruited five girls aged between 10 and 15 years who were drug users from poor families in the city’s outskirts to work and stay with her at her rental house in the commune.
