Phnom Penh Post - Phone thieves foiled by swift mob justice
Two sticky-fingered gents were arrested by police in Phnom Penh’s Por Sen Chey district for making off with a clothing-vendor’s mobile phone yesterday.

Passersby quashed their bid for freedom, with a few swift blows thrown in for good measure, as police arrived to arrest the pair.
