Yet again proving the irresistible allure of karaoke, a man in Phnom Penh’s Por Sen Chey district was arrested for allegedly trading his mate’s moto for a night crooning into a microphone on Tuesday.

Police said the suspect asked to borrow the bike because his was in the shop, but as is often the case, he never returned.

The victim complained, and police tracked the suspect to a karaoke parlour and clapped him in irons. Koh Santepheap
