Cambodian man suicided after money fight, says wife

A Cambodian man died in what his wife has called a suicide at their rented room in Samut Prakan’s Mueang district late on Friday night.

When police arrived at the rented room at 30 minutes after midnight on Saturday, they found a woman crying and hugging the body of Pao Sokarin, 25. His neck had sign of having being tied and a nylon rope was found nearby.
The wife told police that she quarrelled with her husband when he lied, telling her that his employer had not yet given him his monthly salary.

She said she refused to speak to him out of anger, and he got out of bed to go to the toilet. When he did not return after a half-hour, she went into the room and found him hanging from a nylon rope. She said she cut the rope and called for help.
