Police say they didn’t step in when bar patrons allegedly beat on a group of karaoke parlour employees in Kandal province Tuesday because no officer dared to intervene at the establishment known for fighting and shootouts. The three karaoke girls were injured when one client, angry after falling off a sofa, started hitting the girls. Police say they feared the girls would be threatened if they filed a complaint against the men. The police, from Takhmao town, said their policy of dealing with violence at this particular karaoke bar is to wait by the fence outside the parlour.
Well, of course the girls would feel threatened if they filed a complaint. They have no reason to believe that the police will do what police are supposed to do- provide protection, do they? Afterall they have just been beaten black 'n blue and all the coppers could do was sit on a fence.
