Military cop’s wife ‘sold’ after travelling to China

A Pailin military police officer has made an impassioned appeal for the repatriation of his wife who, lured to China by promises of a hefty salary, has been sold multiple times to brokers attempting to wed her to Chinese men.

Van Seng, 53, yesterday told the Post that his wife, Chheng Srey Den, 32, had been approached by a broker who persuaded her to move to China for a factory job with a $1,200 monthly salary.
