Tuesday’s arrest of a woman in Phnom Penh’s Chamkarmon district was the result of her frantic attempt to get her lover’s attention.
The woman allegedly made up a tale about having her motorcycle stolen and told police.
But when authorities realized there had been no crime, they hauled the young woman in for questioning.
According to reports, she admitted to fabricating the story and told police that she had reported the bike stolen in an effort to convince her boyfriend, a frequent club goer, to stop leaving her alone at night.
