When the impending trial for Khmer Rouge prison chief Kaing Kek Iev begins, Cambodians will learn about his role at three prison sites: Tuol Sleng, Cheoung Ek and Prey Sar.
The Khmer Rouge tribunal announced Monday that during three days of hearings, starting 10 am March 30, discussions will center around the creation of Tuol Sleng, known as S-21, as well as a site called S-13, Takmao prison and armed conflict.
“If nothing changes, the trial will be as scheduled,” Judge Nil Nonn, head of the Trial Chamber, told VOA Khmer.
Better known as Duch, Kaing Kek Iev, 66, faces charges of war crimes, crimes against humanity, torture and murder, for his role as the head of Tuol Sleng and other sites, where at least 12,000 Cambodians were tortured or executed.
His trial will be the first of five jailed leaders of the regime for a tribunal that has been more than 10 years in the making and has weathered much criticism for delays, mismanagement and potential corruption.
The courtroom is expected to receive an audience of 500 people, but those who are interested must file an application of participation. The deadline is Wednesday, March 25.
According to Mao Vutha, who is in charge of registering persons at the tribunal, more than 300 people have so far registered to watch, including aid and development workers, diplomats, students and everyday Cambodians.

We should use the Khmer Rouge's laws to try them; it does not waste not much money.
There are four more fugitives missing on that trial. Norodom Sihanouk, Ho Chi Minh, Mao Chin Tung and Hun Sen. For Killing millions of live. I say let stone them to death on behalf of those that lost their live during the Communist Regime.
Duch, when you go to hell, please take ah Hun Sen with you. Ah Hun Sen seems to forgot that Pol Pot was once his master. Pol Pot and Ta Mok are both waiting in hell for you two as well as Ieng Sary, Khieu Samphan and the other Khmer Rouge inside the CPP
Even croc doesn't want to eat this old fart either! after he found guilty, his meat so tough the croc doesn't want to try...
Well,
What should we do with this old fuck then? we already try with croc! How about our PM Hun Sen? he's like to try this tough meat of Prison guard...
Duch, you should tell all you know
His face shows no remorse at all!
Else he would tell all he knew.
To be fair with Duch, the trial Should included Hor Nam Hong, from Boeng Trabek prison camp and other prison camp across Cambodia during the KR period to face justice.

Le Ductho,Ho,Sihanouk,Mao who have begun to burn Cambodia in 1970.And that those who killed khmers and replaced 4 142 546 immigrant Viet in Angkor Wat.
truth!
These mentally challenged creatures are getting too excited.
Yep Duch will be found guilty and be sent to the prison for life. He will enjoy his day as a hero with his real Vietnamese ID. Then the VNews will be announced Duch committed suicide in prison.
Duch will be killed by his own Vietnamese just to shut his mouth when he reaches alzheimer disease.
Vietnamese don't care they killed 4-5 million of their own people and terminated almost Khmer Krom including the minority people, may be about more than 20 million already and then they came out told the world, only more than a million died. Khmer Krom were about more than 20 millions and why is now only more than a million KK?
Where are the mas graves? Burned all in one temple?
11:42,12:33 i like both of your comments, you guy got the point there...it's truth! I agree!
