桥不稳导致柬埔寨发生踩踏事件 Unstable Bridge Blamed for Cambodian Stampede
调查柬埔寨致命踩踏事件的政府小组的一位成员说，小组得出的结论是，这起悲剧是由于一个过于拥挤的桥发生摇晃导致人们恐慌而引起的。
调查委员会的内政部官员马奇托星期三接受电视采访时说，调查小组可能在今后几天发布一个正式的声明。他是在国营巴戎电视台上说这番话的。
悲剧发生时，数百人在金边的一个岛上参加了节日活动之后都试图过一座狭窄的悬索桥。官员说，当人们都争着下桥时发生挤压，导致354人丧生。
柬埔寨官员早些时候说有378人死亡，但是他们星期三解释说，在医院里统计的一些死者是死于其他原因。他们说，有395人受伤。
A member of the government panel investigating a fatal stampede in Cambodia says the group has concluded the tragedy was caused by mass panic when an overcrowded bridge began to sway.
Mak Chito, an interior ministry official on the investigating committee, said in a television interview Wednesday that the panel will likely release an official statement in the next few days. He spoke on state-run Bayron TV.
Hundreds of people were on the narrow suspension bridge after attending a festival on an island in Phnom Penh. Officials say 354 people were killed in the crush of bodies as people tried to get off of the bridge.
Officials earlier said 378 were killed, but they explained Wednesday that some of the bodies counted at hospitals had died of other causes. They said 395 people were injured.
