Afterwards they went to the place of the incident. The victim took (opened?) a bottle of Johnnie Walker BLACK LABEL 1L which they drank together. Sok Ampov went buying a case of Angkor beer which they drank together (6 people) including the (I assume her) older stepbrother. The victim drank half of the bottle until around midnight when he told the others that he felt tired. At 1AM on January 14 2016 they saw the victim snoring too loud and they put him in a room.

In the morning Sok Sreypov went visit her child in Takmao together with her older brother. When she returned at 5PM to the rental house she saw that the victim had foam around his mouth. She reported this to the police who concluded that the victim already died.
