Hello Ta Boo, Actually I encountered on the internet 2 versions of how Sin Si Samouth was killed by the Khmer Rouge. The 1st version is similar to yours, and the 2nd is presented in my 1st post in this subject.
The story in the 1st version is similar to those of 100s of 1,000s of other Cambodian victims, while that in the 2nd story is probably uniquely unspeakably cruel. So I present only the 2nd version. However, as I implied, it may or may not be true. I take this occasion to urge the Cambodian government to officially declare Sin Si Samouth as a national treasure, and to erect some kind of memorial monument to honor him.
