Cambodia's Prince charged over adultery, 2006
In December 2006, Cambodian Prince Norodom Ranariddh was sued at Phnom Penh Municipal Court by his estranged wife, Princess Norodom Marie Ranariddh, over alleged adultery. It was said that 63-year-old Ranariddh filed for divorce after he met and fell in love with his mistress, a classical dancer named Uk Phalla. Ranariddh acknowledged his relationship with Phalla and the fact that they had already had a son. Ranariddh might be put into prison for up to one year due to violation of Cambodia's new monogamy laws.
