Police together with Cambodian Mine Action Centre (CMAC) removed 4,000 anti-aircraft shells which were found buried inside a Buddhist pagoda in Battambang province on Tuesday.
The discovery was made when a group of monks who stayed at Wat Kors Kralor pagoda in Kors Kralor district were digging at about 9am to build a toilet, when they stumbled onto the 16 cases of unexploded ordnances.
In disclosing this yesterday, Kors Kralor district deputy police chief, Lieutenant Colonel Nuon Sameth said the monks immediately alerted the district police who in turn informed CMAC.
