Cambodia's opposition Sam Rainsy Party has issued a statement calling the killing of a newspaper journalist and his son on Friday an ''assassination'' and ''a political threat''.

The journalist, Khim Sambor, worked for a newspaper allied with the party.

He was attacked, along with his 21-year-old son, by a pair of motorbike-riding assailants on Friday.

Police sources and witnesses say the 47-year-old was shot in the back as he was riding on a motorbike driven by his son.

A gunman riding pillion on the assailants' motorcycle then shot the son in the chest as he was going to the aid of his father and telephoning for help.

The Sam Rainsy Party expressed doubt that his killers would be apprehended.

The killing comes amid the month-long official campaign season for the July 27 general election.

This killing and curruptions can only happen under the CPP regime.
This regime is no better then the khmer rouge.

That is why all this time, they are still protecting the khmer rouge.

After the khmer rouge leader is trailed. The CPP members should be trial too! For the justice of the khmer people.

All those who are currupted are the enemy of cambodia and its people!

Much of these Cambodjunks wallow in its own excrement such as negative comments about the skinny guy Thomico, but the elite thugs in Phnom Penh are securely clipped
by the Vietnamese.

Rainsy an asshole has never learnt made another stupid mistake again. He dragged Thomico without first talking to him.

Rainsy should know better that he deals with the murderous Vietnamese not with these small people.

The murderous Vietnamese would not free Monk Tim Sakhorn, such as Hun Sen has to work harder to keep his position. Loosing power to Rainsy South Vietnam will face an uncertainty.

Tim Sakhorn is dead and the brave men and women like Khim Sambo and his son would be shot to death by the murderous Vietnamese roaming everwhere in Cambodia.

Hun Sen is the Cambodian Communsit personified, he can't do much.

And these posters are out of their own crap, because the real men and women are busy working inside Cambodia.

You read what I said Cambodjunks?
