Fcw75 Hypersonic February 21, 2019 Share February 21, 2019 CB motorcyclist... The Cambodian authorities are seeking the owner of a Singapore-registered motorcycle allegedly involved in a hit-and-run accident that killed an elderly man. The incident happened on Feb 7 in Cambodia's capital city of Phnom Penh, in the Khan Por Senchey area along the National Highway 4. According to local media reports, the victim was an 81-year-old man from the Por Senchey district who was crossing the road on his bicycle at about 12.50pm Cambodian time (1.50pm Singapore time). Cambodian news site Cambodia News English (CNE) reported on Feb 7 that the victim had his hands up in the air while crossing, signalling for traffic to slow down. A "high-powered motorcycle" then slammed into him at high speed, killing him instantly. There have been conflicting reports about whether the motorcycle, which was later identified as a BMW R 1200 GS Adventure, had toppled or slowed down after the crash. SINGAPORE Biker linked to hit-and-run was in Cambodia for charity Feb 21, 2019 Related Stories Overall crime rate up in Singapore Carousell launching new review system and tech to tackle fraudsters Two arrested for trying to enter Singapore illegally on sampan But it was consistently reported that it had sped away and that the rider, who eyewitnesses said was dressed in yellow, did not stop to render assistance. However, a piece of debris from the motorcycle with the BMW logo was found at the scene. Photos of the aftermath showed the piece of debris next to the body of the victim covered by a cloth on the ground and distraught family members crying. The bicycle he was on also lay twisted on the ground with its front wheel missing. FOUNDIn an update yesterday, CNE reported that the motorcycle was found parked outside a boutique hotel near the Phnom Penh Central Market area. The motorbike was also missing a piece from its front, and it is believed that the piece of debris found at the scene was from the same motorbike. Pictures of the motorbike showed that it bore stickers with the flags of Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Laos. The BMW motorcycle model has a capacity of 1,170cc, with a maximum speed of over 200kmh. It has a weight of about 260kg and a 30-litre aluminium fuel tank and is described on the BMW website as a motorbike able to "overcome every type of terrain". It costs more than $50,000 here inclusive of the certificate of entitlement. CNE told The New Paper yesterday that it received a tip-off from an anonymous source on Facebook that the owner of the motorcycle had allegedly returned to Singapore to seek treatment for an injured wrist, leaving the motorbike behind. The news has riled both Singaporean and Cambodian netizens, many of whom have demanded she return to Cambodia to assist in investigations. Netizens have also identified a woman who lives in Singapore as the alleged owner. Checks by TNP on her Facebook page showed the mother of two in several photos with the same motorbike found outside the hotel in Phnom Penh. She was also affiliated with local rider groups and appeared to frequently travel by motorbike to Malaysia and Thailand. Attempts by TNP to contact her have been unsuccessful, and her Facebook page was deactivated yesterday evening. A close friend of the woman who did not want to be identified told TNP he was surprised to hear of the allegations. "This is news to me... she is a close friend," he said. "I've never known her to run away from responsibilities." The man added that she has also not responded to any of his messages since. Another acquaintance of the woman told TNP he was unsure if she was Singaporean but confirmed that she lives in Singapore. Singapore does not currently have an extradition treaty with Cambodia. TNP understands that while the Cambodian authorities are still looking for the woman, they have yet to contact their counterparts in Singapore. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vratenza Supersonic February 22, 2019 Share February 22, 2019 What irony.... She was part of a group of at least four bikers in Cambodia from Feb 5 to 11 after riding up to Koh Kong province as part of a "humanitarian ride" to help the elderly and less fortunate. She is there to help or kill? Hit and run some more..... Puii 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vratenza Supersonic February 22, 2019 Share February 22, 2019 Even if the excuse is fear of her life, she should have submitted herself to the next available police post. Those in the convoy are all accessories to her crime when they covered up and acted like nothing happened. Don't tell me it is a tree branch... This is not a lexus. https://www.straitstimes.com/asia/se-asia/cambodia-seeking-singapore-motorbike-owner-over-fatal-hit-and-run-accident what u all think of this 1)against the rider?? 2)or empathize (she run because she fear for her life etc) The Cambodian authorities are seeking the owner of a Singapore-registered motorcycle allegedly involved in a hit-and-run accident that killed an elderly man in Phnom Penh.

Adrianli Hypersonic February 22, 2019 Share February 22, 2019 She should have stayed behind and help. If scared, surrender at the nearest police station. SG is not known to protect our own citizens, they will gladly extradite any criminal. Good luck to her. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman888 Moderator February 22, 2019 Share February 22, 2019 probably fear at that moment and didn't know the old man was killed, but the group should go back immediately when she re-group with the rest. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor68 Turbocharged February 22, 2019 Share February 22, 2019 To be fair, we need to hear from both sides. Just put yourself in her shoes. You maybe killed by the villagers even if it is not your fault if they are hostile. If it a small injury, then maybe you have to pay 100 times to settle. I have experienced in Vietnam and the custom officer are very hostile and rude. Even after realising he is wrong, he acts like he owns the land you are coming thus you just have to bare with it. However, if she is back home, it is time to speak out even if she is wrong. Keeping quiet will not solve the problem. What is done cannot change. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
