A WOMAN who was injured in a grenade attack that killed her husband over the weekend in Kampong Cham province had her eye removed by doctors on Monday, as police continued to look for a suspect whom they declined to name.
The couple’s two daughters, ages 14 and 5, suffered slight injuries to their hands and were also receiving medical treatment Monday, said Suon Ros, the deputy district police chief of Prey Chhor district, where the attack occurred.
The incident unfolded on Saturday evening as 38-year-old Yun Siphan and his wife, 35-year-old Math Sreymin, were riding to their home with their two daughters on a motorbike.
As they approached the house, Yun Siphan stopped to remove a palm leaf that was lying in the road, at which point the perpetrator apparently threw a grenade at the motorbike, injuring Math Sreymin and the two girls.
When Yun Siphan rushed to help them, the assailant attacked him, chopping him in the neck and chest with a knife and killing him instantly.
Police said they believed the attack was premeditated and stemmed from a personal dispute between the victim and the suspect.
