An emaciated woman was found alive on May 17, 2025, at approximately 11:10 a.m. She was discovered lying in an empty plot of land situated near the intersection of Keng Road and Win Win Boulevard, within Sangkat Bak Kheng, Khan Chroy Changvar, Phnom Penh.
The woman appeared to be extremely weak and frail at the time of her discovery, raising significant concerns regarding her health and the circumstances that led to her condition. Her presence in the vicinity was initially observed much earlier in the morning but went unreported for several hours.
At around 5:30 a.m., a motorist passing by on a motorbike reportedly noticed the woman lying beside the road. However, the individual did not stop or investigate further, likely assuming that the situation was not urgent or failing to recognize the seriousness of her condition.
It was not until approximately 11:00 a.m. that someone notified local authorities. Upon receiving the report, police officers responded swiftly and arrived at the scene shortly thereafter to evaluate the situation.
Authorities initiated an on-site investigation to ascertain the woman’s identity, condition, and the circumstances that led to her being left in such a precarious state. No immediate information was available regarding whether she had been abandoned, injured, or was suffering from another issue.
This incident prompts inquiries about public awareness and response in emergency situations. While the woman was fortunate to be found alive, the delay in reporting her presence could have led to a significantly worse outcome. Police have not yet disclosed further details pending the investigation.
