According to the investigation judge it’s the second questioning of the French suspect because he didn’t receive the correct answers yet. Furthermore the suspect is also very hot-tempered and refuses to answer to the questions; he’s very negative.
The suspect will be questioned a 3rd time to close the investigation.

From the 3 young male victims, one of them is suffering from an anal inflammation because the suspect forced him to have sex.

After the suspect start renting a house in Phum Kaoh Kael (កោះខែល), Khum Kaoh Kael (កោះខែល), Seaang District, Kandal Province he started talking sweet to 7/8 year old boys and invited them to sleep with him.

It finished because the victims became sick; their health deteriorated. Some suffered penile ulcers, others an anal inflammation.

More and more complaints arised. Despite complaints of the 3 victims and everything what happened the suspect still denies. In addition every time the suspect appears to court for questioning the suspect seems to receive protection. Journalists can’t interview him or take pictures because they are obstructed by assistants from higher forces (ជាជំនួញការលោកនេះ លោកនោះ). These people threaten the journalists by saying that they aren’t lawyers and that they delay the procedures by doing this.
