Malaysian and Sri Lankan Charged Over Bank Card Scam
The Phnom Penh Municipal Court on Monday heard the case of a Malaysian and a Sri Lankan charged with using fake bank cards to withdraw up to $50,000 from ATMs during Khmer New Year in 2012. Delvin Joshap, 30, of Malaysia, had masterminded the crime and been the source of the fake cards, according to deputy prosecutor Heang Sopheak, while Aruna Salam Vinorajh, 34, of Sri Lanka, was sent to withdraw the money from Singapore Banking Corporation (SBC) ATMs around Phnom Penh. … Taking the witness stand, Mr. Salam Vinorajh said that he had met Mr. Delvin in Phnom Penh one month before he was arrested on April 12, 2012, and admitted to withdrawing money from SBC ATMs but claimed ignorance to the fact that the bank cards were bogus. … SBC is demanding a total of more than $133,000 in pay back and reparations. Judge Te Sam Ang said the court would issue a verdict on October 11.
