Phnom Penh Post - Motodop double dips, plot thickens and sours
An enterprising motodop who decided to dabble in the world of crime was fingered after making the rookie mistake of returning to the scene of the crime on Monday.
The 29-year-old had attempted to break into a house in Phnom Penh on April 18, but was spotted by the owners and so made his escape.
Believing the heat to have died down, the man returned for another go on Monday, only to be arrested on his sophomore attempt.
