The chief monk of a pagoda in Kratie province’s Chhlong district was gunned down on Saturday night by a group of five armed robbers. Deputy penal police unit chief Seng Sareoun said the abbot was sitting in his room at the Roleak Kandorl pagoda in Damrey Phong commune’s Lok village when the robbers, armed with AK-47 rifles, shot him in the chest. “After entering the victim’s room, they fired six bullets into him causing him to die immediately,” Mr. Sareoun said.
 

“After killing him, they collected the victim’s money and other valuables in the room before fleeing,” he added. District police chief Chhong Sarann said the suspects were a group of experienced armed robbers, but added that police had yet to identify or locate them.
