A COMPLAINT was filed with the Ministry of Interior on Wednesday accusing a senior police official and two accomplices of beating a 25-year-old mechanic and leaving him for dead, the victim’s employer said.
The document, which has been seen by the Post, accuses Neang Sok Na – deputy police chief of the Phnom Penh Minor Crimes Bureau – and two others of threatening Phat Dara’s life and pistol-whipping his face and hands on Sunday in an incident witnessed by nearly 50 people who thumb-printed the formal complaint. The allegations have been denied by the police.
Om Heng, the owner of the Heng Heng garage on Phnom Penh’s Street 39 and a witness to the incident, said that staff members, including Phat Dara, were eating dinner in front of the establishment when two cars raced past at high speed.
