Phnom Penh Municipal Court yesterday handed down life sentences to three Chinese men after they were found guilty of trafficking more than 1.5 kilogrammes of drugs in the capital.

 

Presiding Judge Say Sreyleak identified them as Shi Bel, 51, Huo Tao, 24 and Ba Yun, 24. They all were tourists.

“The court decided to sentence each of them to a life imprisonment. They are ordered to pay about $25,000 each to put in the state’s budget,” Judge Sreyleak read the verdict.

 

She said that the trio was charged with “drug possession, transporting and trafficking” under Article 40 of the Law on Drugs Control. They were arrested on October 18, 2020 by the police at the Ministry of Interior, she added. The trio was apprehended after the police raided their rental house in Toek Thla commune in the capital’s Sen Sok district, she said.
