The Anti-Corruption Unit (ACU) has detained a policeman from the Interior Ministry’s anti-economic crime department after he demanded monthly payments from companies. According to a press release from the ACU on Thursday, the man detained was Huy Hoeun, a deputy in the intellectual property section of the anti-economic crime department. He was arrested on Tuesday at a coffee shop allegedly in the process of committing crimes.
 

The ACU added that Mr. Hoeun demanded companies, enterprises and some individuals in Phnom Penh in about 100 locations pay him monthly or annually from $5 to $1,000. The ACU said he had been demanding the money for 10 months since he was appointed to work in Phnom Penh. 
 

“This action came to the attention of the ACU, which investigated, researched and collected evidence,” said the statement, adding that the ACU arrested him at a coffee shop in the process of committing a crime. The ACU confirmed that Mr. Hoeun had been demanding money illegally from companies and added that his actions harmed the reputation of the national body.
