Thmar Koul district police in Battambang arrested more than 10 men accused of cockfighting on Monday. The crackdown on the blood sport, which followed a stern warning months ago, saw police arrest a group of participants and confiscate their cocks and motorbikes.

Police said the men had wagered a lot on the fights, adding that losers are more prone to commit domestic violence and robberies. KOH SANTEPHEAP
