Translated from Khmer by Socheata

On Wednesday, during a 15-minute recess before the court handed down its verdict in the extortion case by Heng Pov, the former Phnom Penh police chief, for an amount of over $10,000 from a Korean man, Heng Pov briefly talked to reporters. He said that if there is sufficient evidence to prove that he committed the crime, he should not be sent to jail for just 18-year but for life instead. Heng Pov declined to take responsibility in the murder of Judge Sok Sethamony. He said that he is not dumb enough to kill Judge Sok Sethamony. He said that he wanted to see reform in the justice system in Cambodia. He said that as long as he is alive, he will keep on calling for a reform in the justice system.
