On January 13, Cambodian media reported that two Chinese citizens were murdered in an apartment building in the Cambodian capital Phnom Penh.

CCTV cameras captured the chilling last moments of the two as they were taken into the apartment against their will by two men with a weapon.

The victims have been identified as a 38-year-old man from Guangdong by the name of Xiao Bo (肖波), and his 22-year-old girlfriend. The two had just met a few months ago. Xiao was locally also known as ‘Bobo’ (波波).

The man and woman reportedly were first held hostage and then brutally killed by two gunmen in an apartment on the ninth floor of the Phnom Penh building.

The incident happened on January 12 in the LH Residence (澜海总裁公寓) apartment complex. The cleaner found their bodies, after which the police were alerted.

Some media report that Xiao had previously sought help because he was being chased by ‘enemies.’ Cambodian police are currently investigating the case.

Meanwhile, the murders have attracted major attention on Chinese social media, where the hashtag “Chinese citizens murdered in Cambodia” (#两名中国人在柬埔寨遇害#) received 180 million views by Thursday evening.

While many people express shock and sadness over the Chinese couple’s death, there are also those who speculate that the man might have been caught up in gambling and the local criminal underworld.

We will add further details to this story when more news comes out.
