Cambodian Man dies fleeing Thai authorities

A 40-year-old Cambodian man’s body was found in a Thai national park after he slipped and fell down a mountain evading capture by Thai police last month, according to an announcement by the Cambodian Embassy on Wednesday.

The man, named only as Phal, was reported to have died from head trauma incurred in the fall on July 27. A group of other Cambodians he had been travelling with were arrested in Nokhom Ratchasima Province Forest for illegally entering Thailand.

His body is being kept at Moharat Hospital in the same province while authorities wait for relatives to collect the body.
