Relatives of a drug kingpin killed during a shootout with military police in April testified in court yesterday that the drug dealer was actually a police officer.

 

During the military police raid at a house-front roast duck business in Tuol Kork, one police officer was killed, three others were injured; alleged gang leader Lim Kim Teng was also killed. Five other people were arrested at the scene.

 

On the first day of their trial yesterday, judge Ros Piseth questioned three of the accused – Ly Vireak, 37, Ly Kokhuy, 64, and Ti Ieng, 45 – charged with drug trafficking, being members of a criminal gang and illegal weapons possession. Both Kokhuy and Ieng, the uncle and brother-in-law of Kim Teng, respectively, said Kim Teng was a police officer.
