Nearly 100 timber traders stormed Kratie town military police headquarters yesterday afternoon in an attempt to liberate two vans filled with confiscated timber, according to military police spokesman Eng Hy, whose account matched footage published online.

 

At 11pm the previous night, military police and Forestry Administration officials executing a warrant issued by the Kratie Provincial Court intercepted a convoy of 10 vans loaded with wood bound for Vietnam, according to provincial military police commander Phat Sopheak Veasna.

 

The convoy halted abruptly, causing one van to rear-end another. A doctor at the provincial referral hospital said the driver of one van was admitted that night with a serious chest injury, his wife with minor injuries, and his assistant with serious injuries to the chin and forehead.
