Ou Virak, President of the Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR), told RFA that he confirmed with the Vietnamese embassy in Cambodia on 02 August 2007 about the arrest of Monk Tim Sakhorn by the Vietnamese authority.
Ou Virak said: “We confirmed with the Vietnamese embassy on Cambodia, they (VN embassy) answered that they indeed arrested Tim Sakhorn. Then they answered that Tim Sakhorn is a Vietnamese citizen who lived illegally (in Cambodia) and he returned back to his country illegally, and they claimed that Tim Sakhorn received aid money to create opposition opinions against the issues in Vietnam.”
Regarding this issue, CCHR also criticized the role played by Monk-king Tep Vong in Tim Sakhorn’s case.

Is this correct? The Vietnamese embassy arrested the Monk Tim Sakhorn? How can they do that? How can an foreign embassy arrest anyone? How can the Vietnamese embassy have powers of arrest in Cambodia?
Is this right

Great Wanna for your sharing this invaluable information. There are tricks, violation and humiliation that we cannot separate between Vietnam government and Hun Sen government...we can see the procedure is the same...They dare defrock, sentence and interrogation of Venerable Tim Sakhorn without worrying about the Buddhist disciplines, Cambodian national law and international law.
Hun Sen leadership and Yeaknam leadership is one...it is different only faces of the leader...but the dictatorship and Indochina Federation is one...Hun Sen is Yeaknam's hero who has helped to make Ho Chi Minh's dream become true...
This is not the accusation, not the allegation....if Hun Sen feel irritating with this, he has to prove us his independent leadership from the sleeve of his boast (Yeaknam).

Yuon accused Tim Sakhorn of a Vietnamese citizen who lived in Cambodia illegally is baseless, unprofessional and lowlife government workers. Tim Sakhorn is a Cambodian citizen. Vietnam violated the international law by crossing into Cambodia and arrested other nationality without concrete evidence.Vietnam must return Tim Sakhorn back to Cambodia unconditionally.
