2003 shooting

In October 2003, Touch Sunnix survived an attempted assassination. Touch Sunnix lost her mother in the 2003 attack.[1] They were shot by four men on motorcycles after a shopping trip in Phnom Penh. She sustained heavy injury and was paralyzed from the neck down from the assault.[2] The assault to Touch Sunnix is still unsolved.[3] The Cambodian king, Norodom Sihanouk, has expressed his deep sadness at the attack on the singer, who had on occasion entertained his royal guests.[4]
