A Cambodian court on Thursday jailed a British computer engineer for seven years after paying to have sex with two underage girls.
Matthew Harland, 38, was arrested in the capital Phnom Penh last May for buying sex from an 11-year-old and a 12-year-old in 2006.
Phnom Penh Municipal Court also ordered Harland to pay each of the victims one million riel ($250) in compensation.
“The verdict offers justice to the victims,” said Peng Maneth, a lawyer for the girls.
