The corpse of 28-year-old Nhoek Prea has been left rotting at the scene of his brutal murder for almost a month now.

His grieving mother and pregnant wife believe that if they attempt to recover the body, they will meet the same bloody fate.

Despite having no savings, they are preparing to abandon all of their earthly possessions – the family home, motorbikes, clothing, cooking utensils – in a desperate effort to avoid what they believe is a curse.

Prea was allegedly murdered by three of his neighbours who lured him into a Memang commune forest early last month on the pretense of hunting before allegedly killing him with chainsaws, knives and stones.
