PHNOM PENH (Khmer Times) – Phnom Penh Municipal Court sentenced Australian teacher George Moussallie on Thursday to five years in prison for sexual abuse of minors.

Six boys, aged between three and 13, testified via a TV feed last month that the foreigner, whom they knew only as “George,” had abused them physically with sexual assaults.  

Moussallie, aged 52, was an English teacher at a private school in Phnom Penh. He was arrested last August when police raided his rented apartment near the Royal Palace. Six young boys were taken into custody by the police and were later transferred to the care of social services. 

Judge Kor Vandy delivered the five-year sentence after Mr. Moussallie was found guilty of having sex with and performing “indecent acts” on children. After serving his sentence, Mr. Moussallie will be deported from Cambodia.

Two complaints against Mr. Moussallie were filed on behalf of the children. The court ordered the parents to be compensated a total $2,500 and that the defendant pay $1,250 fine.      

Moussallie could have received more jail time. Sexual intercourse with a minor under 15 years carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison. Indecent assault of a minor under 15 years is punishable by up to three years.

Throughout the trial, Mr. Moussallie repeatedly denied having sex with minors. He stated that he felt that he was being followed by people from the anti-pedophilia NGO Action Pour Les Enfants. He accused the group of framing him.
