A teenage girl was found dead on a riverbank in Phnom Penh on Sunday night in what investigators believe to be a rape-murder. The 15-year-old victim, Choub Srey Pov, was visiting family for Chinese New Year in the mostly Vietnamese village of Tuol Sangke, said Meng Vimeandara, an investigator with the Meanchey district police.

The 7th grader’s unclothed body was found at 6pm dumped in the reeds near the Tonle Bassac river after she had briefly gone missing, according to James McCabe, director of the Phnom Penh-based Child Protection Unit, which assisted in the crime scene investigation yesterday. “We believe she was attacked, raped and then murdered in that vicinity . . . We believe she has been drowned with her head held underwater,” he said, adding that samples had been taken at the crime scene for DNA testing.

The hunt for the man who allegedly raped and drowned a 15-year-old girl in Phnom Penh on Sunday night ramped up yesterday following reports from witnesses, according to leading investigators.

Police detained two males, aged 17 and 20, yesterday in connection with the crime but released them after a “detailed statement” they provided exonerated the pair and gave investigators a solid lead, according to James McCabe, director of the Phnom Penh-based Child Protection Unit, who assisted in the investigation.

The victim, Choub Srey Pov, was visiting family in a mostly Vietnamese village for Chinese New Year.

Her unclothed body was found at 6pm on Sunday, dumped in the reeds near the Tonle Bassac River after she had briefly gone missing.
