A man and a woman have been arrested after a mother was raped and then killed along with her 2 year old son at the weekend. Police in Svay Antor district, Prey Veng province arrested the two perpetrators after they murdered the victims and then attempted to hide the evidence by burning the house down.

 

Prey Veng Provincial Police Commissioner Major General Chhoeun Bunchorn stated that the suspects are Nuon Touch, a 49-year-old female worker and Mom Nheb (male, age not given). The victims have been named as Poy Yim (aka Mey Achan alias Khlot), 35 years old, a farmer living in Prey Lveay village, Teuk Thla commune, Svay Antor district, Prey Veng province, and her son Moy Chan, 2 years old.

 

According to the confession of the perpetrator, Nuon Touch, she had began to become jealous of the victim after she felt that her husband, Poy Yim, spent too much time with her. On June 24, 2023, at around 05:30 pm, the suspect and her husband argued over the matter.

That's an unusually wild story.The guy agreed to participate in a double homicide just for the opportunity to commit rape? The woman took out her anger by strangling the victim AND crushing the head of her 2 year old infant under her foot? Although the guy committed the rape, the woman is the one who actually killed both victims. Pretty dark-hearted, I must say. These two seem to have badly miscalculated that setting fire to the house would destroy all the evidence.

 

The area where this happened looks to be about half way between Phnom Penn and a part of Cambodia which juts into Vietnam known as the "Parrot's Beak." That area saw a lot of intense fighting and bombing during the Vietnam war. Looking on Google Maps, area looks like it is primarily rice farming, not affluent, but not destitute either.
