Phnom Penh – In the morning of 05 May 2012, the joint committee to investigate the death of Chut Wutty, President of the Natural Resource Protection Group, and In Ratana, a military police officer, held a press conference to show the cause of the death above.

Tith Sothea, the vice-president of the Press and Quick Reaction Unit (aka PQRU) of the Council of Ministers and a member of the investigation committee, said during the press conference that, following several days of investigation, the firing was accidental (sic!).

Tith Sothea explained that the reason the firing took place was because Chut Wutty and In Ratana had a violent verbal altercation. In Ratana, the military police officer, could not take it so he shot two rounds into Chut Wutty’s car. The bullet ricocheted and hit Chut Wutty causing his death. On the other hand, Ran Borath a security guard for the (unknown) logging company, when he saw the firing, he went in to intervene by wrestling with In Ratana. Then a misfiring ensued and 2 bullets hit In Ratana who died on the spot.

KI-Media: The two reporters from the Cambodia Daily reported that the two men – Chut Wutty and In Ratana – did not die immediately after the shooting, but the soldiers present at the scene prevented anybody from taking the two men to hospital. Obviously, these are minor details for the investigation comedy, oops, we meant committee. A few days ago, the Bayon TV station (owned by Hun Mana, Hun Xen's daughter) presented the exact same version of the story. Coincidence? Most likely not!
