PHNOM PENH — Five-months pregnant, Im Chanthy was told that her husband's body had been found in the trunk of his car, brutally hacked to death for reporting on illegal logging and land concessions in Cambodia. Most of these concessions, a new report by environmental watchdog Global Witness found, are owned by two Vietnamese rubber companies, which, with the financial support of Deutsche Bank, an arm of the World Bank and local governments, have acquired more than 500,000 acres of land in Cambodia and neighboring Laos.
