An American national is facing three
counts of sex crimes against minors after being formally charged at
Phnom Penh Municipal court Wednesday. Mark Stephan Freitag, 60, was
arrested in Phnom Penh Monday on suspicion of sexually abusing three
young boys and producing child pornography. Phnom Penh's anti-human
trafficking police chief Keo Thea said Freitag has been charged with
indecent acts against a minor, sexual intercourse with a minor and
producing child pornography. If found guilty, he faces up to 10 years
in prison.
