Fake journalists accused of extortion in Kampong Thom

Featured Replies

Eleven people were arrested in Kampong Thom’s Prasat Balang district on Sunday for allegedly posing as journalists and NGO workers to extort money from illegal timber transporters in the area, local police said yesterday.

Chhim Chhum, Prasat Balang district police chief, said that officers cracked down after receiving reports from villagers that people claiming to work for newspapers and conservation NGOs had been routinely demanding funds from local vehicles couriering timber loads.

According to Chhum, between 50,000 and 300,000 riel (about $12.50 to $75) was paid per load, with the majority of incidents taking place in Beng Per Wildlife Sanctuary.
