SRP MP Son Chhay told The Cambodia Daily on Sunday that he plans to meet with Nguyen Chien Thang, the Vietnamese ambassador in Cambodia, on Monday morning to request an official visit to see Monk Tim Sakhorn, the former abbot of the Phnom Den pagoda who is currently jailed by Vietnam. However, Trinh Ba Cam, spokesman of the Vietnamese embassy, said on Sunday that he does not know about this meeting, but he said that Vietnamese officials will not permit anyone to visit Monk Tim Sakhorn because the Vietnamese police is still investigating this case. According to the Vietnamese embassy, Monk Tim Sakhorn is currently facing trial for political crimes related to the charge that he was involved with the US-based Khmer Kampuchea-Krom Federation (KKF). On Saturday, the Khmer Krom Monks Association declared in a statement that it will hold a march from Phnom Penh to Phnom Den pagoda on 05 September to protest against the jailing of this former monk.

The fucken Vietcong had violated human right big time in abusing Monk Tim Sakhorn in their custody!

I pray to God that Monk Tim Sakhorn would have the strength to outstand the Vietcong brutal interrogation!

The reason the fucken Vietcong refused everybody to see Monk Tim Sakhorn because this Monk probably had suffered permanent brain damage or physically disables by all the beating, hanging, and force feeding!

Monk Tim Sakhorn will never be a human again and the fucken Vietcong will pay for what they have done to him!

Don't let the Vietnamese live comfortably in Cambodia. Keep disrupting them where ever they are.
We Khmer are the owner of the land and we have the right to do whatever we want against these mother-fuckers.
