An errant Kampot man got a dose of tough love from his mother after his repeated failure to change his ways left her with no option but to call the cops.

The 26-year-old was a drug addict who, whenever he got high, would go on a rampage and wreck the family home.

His mother, tired of her protestations falling on deaf ears, reported his behaviour to police. Police arrested him on Monday, and are preparing to send him to court.
