A 16-year-old girl told the Phnom Penh Municipal Court yesterday that she did take a 17-year-old girl from her house in Akrei Ksath commune in Kandal province to meet a Cambodian human trafficking broker called ‘Chan” in Takhmao city in 2020. The high school dropout who lived in Phnom Penh’s Russei Keo district said she only took the girl to see “Chan” and for the introduction, she was paid $50 as commission.

 

She said she knew the girl via Facebook and recruited her for “Chan” as she was begging for help. “She (victim) said that she is very poor and her mother is a widow. She knew that I had a Chinese husband and lived in China. She begged me to find her a rich Chinese man to marry so that she can support her family financially,” said the accused.

 

She added that she pitied the girl and decided to help her. The school dropout is charged with “unlawful removal for cross-border transfer” under Article 11 of the Law on Suppression of Human Trafficking and Sexual Exploitation and if found guilty, she will face a jail sentence of between seven to 15 years.
