Sources told Reuters that the embassy staff in Pnomh Penh was using a nonofficial Facebook Messenger chat group to share the videos and photographs. An ex-U.S. embassy staff member told the agency there were no diplomats among the embassy workers involved which included guards and clerical staff.“They had their identification cards taken and some of their phones checked,” the staff member said.
消息人士向路透社透露，美国驻金边大使馆工作人员使用非官方的脸谱聊天群分享这些色情视频和照片。一位前美国大使馆工作人员告诉路透社，遭解雇的32雇员中有警卫和文职人员，但没有美国外交官。他表示：“美国驻金边大使馆没收了这些员工的身份识别证和检查了部分员工的手机。”

It came to light after a wife of an embassy worker saw some of the images and reported it to an American official.
据悉，一位使馆工作人员的妻子看到其中的部分照片后，向一位美国官员举报了此事，案件才被曝光。
