Cambodian residents here are furious over a recent court ruling that acquitted a Korean man of charges of killing his Cambodian wife in a “disguised” car accident in order to receive insurance benefits.
A Cambodian woman in her 30s, married to a Korean living in Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi Province, said, “We are all talking about the news in our chat rooms.
