South Korea summoned the Cambodian envoy to express concern after a Korean college student was kidnapped and brutally tortured to death in a case that threatened to spark a diplomatic row between the two countries.
Police in South Korea said on Sunday they planned to conduct a joint autopsy with Cambodian authorities on the 22-year-old student from North Gyeongsang Province in South Korea who was found dead in Cambodia in August after being lured by a fake job offer. He had entered the country on 17 July and died of cardiac arrest caused by torture two weeks later.
