FBI Director Robert Mueller said in a press conference on 31 January, following the inauguration of the FBI office located inside the US embassy in Cambodia, that the FBI plans to send Chhun Yasith, the chairman of the Cambodian Freedom Fighters (CFF) movement, who is currently being jailed, to face justice in the near future. Chhun Yasith, the CFF leader, organized an attack in the middle of Phnom Penh city in 2001. He was later arrested in the US with the cooperation between the Cambodian government and the FBI. Robert Mueller said that he thanks the Cambodian government for its cooperation in the exchange of information and its authorization for the US to interview its witnesses. He said that the US is preparing to send Chhun Yasith to court for sentencing.

"Stupid is Stupid does, Sir." What's a slogan. CFF seemed to get all nationalist to jail or got shot. Chhun Yasith deserved to be hung because not only nationalist were jailed or died, the welfare receipients also had thier benifits reduced or terminated from program due to tax frauds done by Yasith.

until then, you need to wait until the fbi and u.s. break ties with cambodia, then the u.s. will give you a fair trial.
