Prime minister Hun Sen declared on Monday morning, during the occasion of the announcement for the new criminal code in Phnom Penh, that the Chhay Hour II case is not over yet following the revelation of bribery in exchange for the release of criminals by the Appeals Court. Hun Sen said that this affair is a very hot issue involving human trafficking therefore it should be considered a criminal case and those who are involved should be sent to jail. Hun Sen also said that the court must not rule like it did in the Chhay Hour II case. Hun Sen added that now some information are known and the Chhay Hour II affair is not over yet, it will move forward because how could the municipal court sentence the accused but the Appeals Court released the accused instead, Hun Sen said that the involvement behind this case is now revealed. According to an investigation on the Appeals Court, it was learnt that the release of Te Pao Ly, the owner of the Chhay Hour II hotel, was done because Chhun Poch, Te Pao Ly’s 63-year-old father, bribed the Appeals Court $30,000. Regarding the Long Chhin Resorts company which filled in the Kob Sorv Lake to build houses, Hun Sen said: “What so important about the Long Chhin case which filled in a huge areas of the lake, I will deal with him with a strong fist, now take the landfill out of the lake.”
