A British man accused of operating a business illegally in Cambodia, who is linked to the killing of his business partner in Thailand, went on trial yesterday in Phnom Penh. Toby James Nelham, 45, is facing charges of illegal entry into Cambodia, residing without proper documents and working without proper permits, along with fraud.

 

The charges are linked to Springtide International, a company he established in Preah Sihanouk province in 2015. The company, which operated online selling a range of products, is accused of not paying taxes in Cambodia and operating without proper licences.

 

Mr Nelham’s business partner in Thailand, Tony Kenway, was shot dead on January 24 in Pattaya as he left a gym. Thai police have linked Mr Nelham to the murder, which was carried out by two hired gunman. Lieutenant Colonel Kong Narin, deputy chief of immigration police, said if Mr Nelham is convicted, he will serve his sentence in Cambodia and be handed over to Thai police afterwards.

 It was a Brit and a South African - Abel Caldeira and Brit Miles Turner. They seem to be on the run still. 

Your automatically guilty as soon as your arrested in Cambodia - doesn't matter what you did or didn't do. The Cambodian authorities would never admit they made a mistake anyway. Arrogance, together with stupidity and extreme greed, is a dangerous combination.

Thailand + Cambodia + Laos; a very potent land filled with criminals.

Anyway, these guys are well known for operating boiler rooms. If thats what they were doing, Im pleased with everything thats coming for them.

It looks like the owner of the "fisherman bar -restaurant" on Maprachan lake ?

Well the 2 guys who did the deed on Kenway are probably pushing up Daisies by now, and as for Nelham, I just hope that the Fisherman's keeps on turning out delicious Indian food

Not a good advert for British people, ok.

What about the other nationalities who commit crimes here?

You know the 1 about the American who robbed a gold shop in Chiang mai this week.

Good and bad from every country in the world.

There are good and bad everywhere. Those who use a broad brush maybe run with the wrong crowd.
