HÀ NỘI — A clash occurred in Phnom Penh on July 29, resulting in the death of a 35-year-old Vietnamese citizen, reported the Vietnamese Embassy in Cambodia.

KhmerTimes on Sunday said that Cambodian police detained the suspect, who had a row with the victim right before he shot the victim around 1:25pm on Saturday. The suspect quickly fled the scene on a Lexus RX300 vehicle, as seen in the traffic camera footage.

The body of the victim is being kept at Stung Meanchey pagoda, waiting for the family to claim.

Upon learning of the news, the embassy promptly took citizen protection measures to identify the victim as directed by the Vietnamese Foreign Ministry.

It also asked the Cambodian side to investigate and arrest the perpetrator, and work with relevant domestic agencies to inform the victim's family and provide them with guidance on necessary procedures following the incident. — VNS
