Police in Phnom Penh say 62-year-old Moeng Sary was arrested after five years on the run following a string of some 37 armed robberies, and has been charged with theft and "using a weapon without permission", the Khmer Times reports . The former teacher from Cambodia's southern province of Prey Veng, was identified as a suspect by police following the robbery of a shop in which the owners were beaten, and an estimated $120,000 (£82,000) in jewellery and cash was taken. Authorities claim that this was Mr Sary's final robbery, after two of his alleged accomplices were captured and implicated him as their ringleader.
