Hundreds of survivors of Cambodia's Khmer Rouge genocide have gathered at killing fields near Phnom Penh on the anniversary of the capital's fall to the ultra-Maoists.
Opposition leader Sam Rainsy and about 700 people assembled at the sombre memorial to demand speedy trials of the regime's leaders.
Sam Rainsy says the trial must happen soon, otherwise the Khmer Rouge leaders will die without any convictions.
About 70 Buddhist monks blessed victims' skulls on display at the Choeung Ek killing fields outside Phnom Penh, where Khmer Rouge soldiers killed thousands of people during the regime's reign fro 1975 to 1979.
UN chief Ban Ki-moon has urged the courts to deliver long-overdue justice for the crimes committed by the Khmer Rouge.
Frustration has been building among Cambodians as a funding crisis delays the tribunal.

Ah Savage Killer Xam Rainxy has no soul when he even exploited victims of the atrocity for his political gain.
