Marijuana plants destroyed at four locations in Kirivong, Takeo

Takeo provincial deputy governor Khan Sokha led police to search for cannabis plantations in Preah Bat Choan Chum commune, Kirivong district. Four plantations and four water storage sites were found across 437 square metres and burned. Owners escaped before police arrived. Sokha noted the difficulty of identifying cultivators because they blend in with villagers who climb the mountain for forest products. He added that Kirivong residents do not consume marijuana locally, suggesting external markets.
