The United States embassy in Cambodia has fired 32 people after they were allegedly caught sharing pornographic material in a non-official chat group, several sources familiar with the matter said on Friday. Some of the images were seen by the wife of an embassy worker who reported the incident to an official at the embassy. He said the 32 embassy workers included Cambodians and Cambodian-Americans. Child rape continued to be a serious problem in Cambodia, the U.S. State Department said in a 2016 report. An embassy spokesman said he could not comment and referred queries to the State Department.
