PHNOM PENH, Oct 15, 2022 (AFP): Authorities have detained two owners and the 15-year-old operator of a boat that sank, killing 11 children, Cambodian police said Saturday.
The small boat -- carrying students aged between 12 and 15 back from an English class -- went down in the Mekong River late Thursday, floundering roughly 50 metres (160 feet) from its destination in southeastern Kandal province.
