Phnom Penh: Australian nurse and surrogacy broker Tammy Davis-Charles shook her head in dismay on Thursday when a court postponed a verdict at her trial in the Cambodian capital. Ms Davis-Charles was sent back to one of the country's harshest overcrowded prisons.

 

Police alleged  the 49-year-old mother of six from Melbourne, falsified documents, including birth certificates, to smooth passage of surrogacy paperwork through Cambodia's murky legal system and the Australian embassy in Cambodia.

 

Her lawyer, Cheang Sophoan, told Fairfax Media the decision was a violation of her rights because she has already spent six months in jail. He said the main charge she faces relating to arranging surrogacies only carries a six-month sentence.
