A senior Khmer Rouge figure - Pol Pot's second in command - has astonishingly denied Cambodia's killing fields ever happened.
Nuon Chea, the man the Khmer Rouge called "Brother Number Two", said of Cambodia's notorious killing fields: "It didn't happen when we were in power. It could have just been made up."
And when asked if he accepted many Cambodians died as a result of Khmer Rouge policies, he replied: "No."
Nuon Chea may deny any wrongdoing, but he is likely to be charged with crimes against humanity when trials begin late this year or early next.
He said: "I want to go to court. I want to be allowed to speak for two or three days to explain the policy, strategy and matters of the party."
The Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia between 1975 and 1979. Even though they were only in power for four years, Pol Pot's evil regime killed an estimated 1.7 million people.

He can denies all he wants right now and when put on trial. but boy he won't be denying when he go to Hell and faces the soul of those he took when he was in power with Pol Pot.
You can avert your guilt, but you can't avoid God Judgement when you no longer a living body.
It's best to admit you your guilt now, before Hell will open its door to invite you in just like you've invited thousands from France to entered your Torture Center (Toul Sleng) to get an answer out by falsifying people under your New World Order.
You and your group are Monsters, Noun Chear. You serve your evil master aa Katop to kill Cambodians.
You less than rat!
NO CRIMINAL EVER ADMITS HIS WRONG DOING... NUON CHEA IS ONE OF THEM.
Maybe his is right, it was the work of the Hanoi VC people, if you haven notice that. Khmer people when will you leanr that the Khmer Rouge Regime was one of the biggest conspiracy against Khmer race. The Viet want Khmer to be annihilated. so do your research before you just blaming on your onw people. Dont be a fool while the real killer are laughting at you.
