The Phnom Penh Municipal Court yesterday heard the case of a self-described footballer allegedly arrested with 100 grams of methamphetamine in the capital’s Choam Chao commune in January.

During the short hearing, defendant Francis Ihenwe Oderah, 30, a Nigerian national, confessed to having acted as a delivery man, but asked the court for clemency as he was not a dealer himself.

“A woman called me to receive the drugs from a motodop and then bring those drugs to customers, promising to give me $50. When I got the drugs, I brought them to her customers near a petrol station in Choam Chao and the police arrested me,” Oderah said in a statement to police, which was read aloud in court and confirmed by Oderah himself.
