A Banteay Meanchey provincial health official yesterday said two people died and more than 100 are being treated in hospital after they were poisoned by food they ate over the weekend at a drug rehabilitation centre. Keo Sopheaktra, director of the provincial health department, said the poisoning occurred at the Phnom Bak New Life Centre, a rehabilitation centre for recovering drug addicts.

 

“Two people died, one on Saturday and another on Sunday,” Mr Sopheaktra said. “Their bodies were sent to the Cambodia-Japan Friendship Hospital.” It is unclear what caused the poisoning, but a total of 264 people experienced symptoms of vomiting, diarrhoea, breathing difficulty and dizziness after consuming cucumbers on Saturday.

 

He said about 120 people are still being treated in hospital. “Now only 124 people are being treated in Serei Soaphaon Referral Hospital and Cambodia-Japan Friendship Hospital,” Mr Sopheaktra said.
