After Heng Pov, the former Phnom Penh police commissioner, asked for a delay in his court hearing about the killing of a restaurant owner, because he was displeased with his usual defense lawyer, the Phnom Penh municipal court will hold a hearing on 28 January for Heng Pov, in yet a different court case. The Rasmei Kampuchea reported that the latest case involved the shooting committed by Heng Pov on Kim Daravuth, the director of the Chak Angre branch of Electricité du Cambodge (EdC), and crippling him. Rasmei Kampuchea reported that the court case on the shooting of Kim Daravuth was delayed once already when it was originally brought up in 28 August 2007, at that time, the court decided to delay the hearing to 28 January. Up until now, Heng Pov was sentenced on 4 court cases, and his jail sentence has accumulated to 40-year and 6-month. There are still a number of other pending cases that the court did not bring forth to decide yet.
