|summary=Mondulkiri provincial police found and destroyed nearly 7,000 marijuana plants at two locations in O'Raing district's Sen Monorom commune after a villager tip-off. The first plot measured 15m × 120m (1,800 m²) and the second 10m × 15m (150 m²). Police seized two pumps and three hoes. Four Bunong indigenous landowners were brought in for questioning; they claimed a man from Takeo province had deceived them into growing the plants among their vegetables, telling them the crop was profitable. Villagers had reported the plants to police saying "they saw plants they had never seen before." Police are searching for the ringleader from Takeo.
