THE son of a two-star general from Prime Minister Hun Sen’s bodyguard unit was charged on Saturday in Phnom Penh with stealing a car, slapping fake licence plates on it and possessing an illegal weapon, police said.

Seang Sok, deputy prosecutor of the Phnom Penh Municipal Court, said fourth-year law student Chea Dina, 24, the son of Major-General Chea Dara (pictured), faced five years’ jail and a US$2500 fine if found guilty.

“I have charged him with three offences. He has been sent to Prey Sar Prison to await trial,” he said.

Sea Sambath, chief of the penal offence research office at the National Military Police, said Chea Dina was arrested last Thursday in Daun Penh district’s Boeng Raing commune in connection with stealing a Toyota Land Cruiser on December 1.

“[Chea Dina] stole a car . . . and sprayed new colours on it and also changed its number plate,” he said, adding that police also seized a pistol from him.

The man in this picture is 4 SG general, looks at his name tag he is CHEA TARA. It may be another Chea Dara who has two SG.

Not so professional, man… as a two-star general doesn’t care about his name,
If I were him I wouldn’t use it.

There were no pictures of neither the general's son nor the general himself shown in PP Post.
The alleged person is a "4th year law student" named Chea Dina,the son of a 2 star general of Hun Sen's bodyguard unit.
Khmerization enhanced the news with the picture of the different but more familial 4 star general?
I would love to see the outcome of this news soon.I will check the local Khmer newspapers too,to see which one has the luck of not carry this interesting news! see what I mean?!

Chea Tara, the correct spelling is Dara, is a 4-star general but the general in this article is a 2-star general. However, the PPost did not elaborate further the detail of the general in question, that's why the article has created confusion. As far as I am concerned there is only one Gen. Chea Dara and that is the one in this picture.
