A key witness in the Khmer Rouge trial has accused Prime Minister Hun Sen of being a key member of the Khmer Rouge regime that killed more than 1.7 million people in the 1970s, reports Deum Ampil newspaper.
Mr. Nayan Chanda (pictured), an expert on the Khmer Rouge regime who wrote a book titled "Brother Enemy", claimed on Monday that "Prime Minister Hun Sen used to be a member of the Khmer Rouge regime."
Nayan Chanda, an Indian academic of politics and history of South Eas Asia, was called as an expert witness in the trial of Duch. He claimed that Mr. Hun Sen used to be a member of the Khmer Rouge leadership based in the Eastern Zone who had actively led the fight to expel the Vietnamese settlers out of Cambodia in 1977.
Responding to Mr. Chanda's allegations, Mr. Khieu Kanharith, the government spokesman, said that the charge that the head of a government was a member of the Khmer Rouge regime is the duty of the prosecutor and the trial judges and not the duty of a witness. He said that the prosecutor and the judges have the duty to investigate how true is the accusations that have been made by the witness. He added that any witnesses who wrongly told untrue information will lead the court to make a wrong conclusion. He also claimed that Mr. Chanda's testimonies had further added confusions to the court, which has already been confused.
This is the first time that Prime Minister Hun Sen, who held powers for more than 30 years, had been mentioned in the Khmer Rouge Tribunal as a key player in the Khmer Rouge regime which was responsible for the deaths of more than 1.7 million people.
However, experts believe that Prime Minister Hun Sen will never be brought to trial because the Khmer Rouge Tribunal has jurisdiction to try only 5 key members of the Khmer Rouge leadership.
Attempts by the Tribunal to widen its scope of jurisdiction on several occasions have failed.

It's well known that Hun Sen was a Khmer Rouge commander in the Eastern Zone. But when an expert testified against him, Hun Sen should be tried by the KR court. He had committed atrocities during the KR regime, so he should be punished.
Hun Sen is one of Khmer Rouge who killed the innocent Cambodian people and continues to kill should be brought to the trial.
i wonder what led to hun sen change of heart from person who chase out invaders to person who kissed the invaders ass. did he sleep with the invaders? That method had been so effective since the time of Chetta II
Of course, he was and is still one of the Khmer Rouge, and why the hell you just found out about him???
We have a key witness Mr. Nayan Chanda.I urge U.N authority please take him be in the safe place,Hun
Sen and Yuon have a lottactic
distroy the evidens.Yuon had set
plan 100 years to control Khmer in the 18century,they to make Khmer be
Yuon,it's can not be,this cetury they make Yuon to be Khmer.Yes! it
is succeded presently all Yuon

chief of goernor the Province are
Yuon,How coudl we do?.Who will be
our helper?.May God in the haven help Cambodian inocent.
who care and why do we need to punish Hun Sen for an attrocities he had committed in the past during the KR regime for over 30 years ago?? I don't get it. We can not even touch him or punish him for the crimes he committed now??? why you think we can go back to the past??? He committing murders everyday and no one can do anything about it. come on people.
He was a member of Khmer Rouge doesnt mean he had the power and did order for the mass killings. I believe he was an innocent soldier/cammander.
Lets the court find out, who was involved the killings if there would be a chance. Were there any his family members got executed during KR time? I heard he did run for his life to VN while Khmer Rouge after him.
9:01Am,
You are too dumb to get it.
To 9:26AM
You are a bastard. You do not know anything about Ah Hun Sen. Per document from one of the U.S University, Hun Sen and heng Samrin have trown the grenades to kill all the ill khmer people in a hospital in Kg Cham province.
If you are stupid and if you do not know anything, just shut up your smelly mouth.
All the dumb! Just clear the sick mind! Hun Sen was one of the the life savers. He was an innocent and a Khmer hero. You got to understad that.
People vote 90 seats for Hun Sen, so this indicate that the behavior and activity of Hun Sen and the 90-seat people are the same. That why we heard and saw the violences throughout the country. Sirene of ambulences taken the the victimes to the hospital weere heard 24 hours every place in the city. Listen to 103 FM radio at 6 am, read Koh Santepheap and Rasmei Kampuchea newspaper etc. we see that there are alot of crimes and violences throughtout the country.
Hun was a Khmer Rouge who took part in murdering innocent gifted and intelligent Cambodians during the 1970's. After running away to Vietnam in 1978-79, he returned to Cambodia to kill more Cambodians, but this time his fellow Khmer Rouge comrades. To this day, he still orders the executions of Cambodian opposition lawmakers, activists, journalists and innocent civilians and very soon, his very own CPP members.
HUN SEN LOVES TO KILL CAMBODIANS...SIMPLE AS THAT.
Hun Sen has been a hero. And he s a truth Khmer.
Yes!90 percent voter vote for him,
this vote it was unfairable vote.
CPP use tactic steeling the vote
Hun Sen was a youn HERO because only him can bring youn to take over whole Cambodia and make Cambodian ppl think he is god of savor, plase close you eyes one minute refresh the te` ung memory,you'll see your damn hero.
Hun sen,Sihanouk,Vietcong,Duch,Polpot
Ieng Sary,Khiev Samphan,Dr Chuon Chhoeun,Hou Nim,Hou Yun,Phok tchay,Hor nam hong,sok an,.....are khmer rouges who have all destroyed including our Lord Buddha.
"Flower and thorn are in the same stem" Buddha.
I still don't get it, why worry about bringing Hun Sen to justice, when we can't even bring Duch and the other 4 top Khmer Rouge leaders to justice as of yet. What good does that do?? Come on all your smart asshole in this forum. give me a good reason??
If Hun Sen living freely from his international crimes commited it is not fair for the four khmer rouge top leaders also Sihaknuk.
To put an example for the next geneneration HUN SEN MUST GO TO THE COURT PERIOD.
Hun Sen must go to the court, but others too not just the Cambodians should be.
In case this happen, it will be good for some here, who were always thinking, they were Mr. 100 % clean and superman.
You might able lead yourself and have the power but not love the country Cambodia.
Another trouble and new conflict, Cambodia will not survive.
Where is the Kingdom of Champa and the Kingdom of Khmer Mon ?
Champa is a thing of the past. We lost the war, so did the Indian Americans (native). Lessons learned. It's time to move on.

Ah New Phally is busy in the meeting, unable to comment.
Ah PPU (Perverse Pedophilia Urchin) is also busy in the meeting, unable to comment.
Ah PPU , if its time to go on why do they have those 5 people in court ? you said its time to go on because you saw hun sen's name in there ? what a hypocrite you are . JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED .

Why don't you just admit that you're having difficulty dealing with the truth. We don't have problems handling the truth.

Who can touch Sen, Nuk, Rin, Sim, Pon, Ry, Duch, Sadam, Malasovich...
Just wait and see...the light is start rising....
In the West, if you committed just ordinary crimes you will be punished even after 50 or 60 years later. Hun Sen had committed crimes against humanity just 30 years ago, so it is not too late to punish him.
A 89 year old man was sent back to Germany for prosecution for crimes against humanity. He was a Nazi during the Jewish Holocaust.
Let's bring all these Untouchable people to face his/her past/current crimes!

Hey Nayan Chanda!
Why are you so tenacious in bringing our PM Hun Sen and his government down? Is it because one of your most respected royal members is related to Sihanouk? Come on man, Sihanouk was/is the leader of the KR regime!
Why didn't you do the same to Sihanouk? Are you afraid to get punished by your royal member, Neak Ang Mechas/ Raj Kumari Jasmina?
No wonder there were top Indian royal members went to her wedding(s). No wonder there are always Indians coming to Cambodia triying to defend King Sihanouk because your Raj Kumari Jasmina is Sihanouk most dear grandchild. And no wonder Jasmine can speak indian language fluently. And no wonder she's always traveling to india, bangladesh, sri lanka and all the indians speaking countries. Come on Sihanouk, you can't hide any longer because the whole wide world new about the hidden status of your beloved grandchild Jasmina.
Oh, by the way, one day there will a chinese expert go to Cambodia to defend Sihanouk because that Jasmine has also chinese background. Geeze, what a mixte? How did you you that Sihanouk?
AH KI-MEDIA & MEMBERS,
WHY DON'T YOU ALL GO FUCK SAM RAINSY AND HIS WIFE AND HIS CHILDREN AND SR WHOLE CLAN IN THE ASS???
OH, I ALMOST FORGET TO MENTION TO KI TO GO FUCK ALSO Lao Mon Hay and Agafar Peng-Meth!
From Nayan Chanda and Sarotee Sri Krishna
of course, everyone was the victim under the stupid KR regime! khmer people know this already, however, everyone is reconciled and reformed, really. during the time of the KR regime, if you don't follow orders, they'll kill you; so, some people had no choice but to play the KR's game during that dark time in cambodia's modern history. anyway, again, that was history. remember what mr. hun sen said before, if some people say he was a member of the KR, then someone else was the king of the KR, despite his prominent national and world status before the KR took over in 1975. so, that's the point? i mean, it's good to learn about history, however, sometimes, it is better to forgive and reconcile for the sake of national unity, national reconstruction, moving on forward toward better things, better life, better economy, better standard of living, etc, etc... god bless cambodia and all our beautiful khmer people and citizens.
ps: don't forget that was over 30 years ago and most people tried to go on with their lives already. of course, it was a tragic history and a pain past when comes to think about it, however, life goes on, you know. get with the new program. we all want progress for our beautiful, beloved cambodia. thank you.

1:45 is very afraid of the SRP because they are getting better and more popular . 1:45 , you can keep on cursing and screaming because your time is getting close
3:22am, i love your idea. please do suggest and talk about creating the social welfare system in cambodia to help the truly disabled and truly dirt poor people and other domestic victim who has no mean to support themselves or their small children or elderly parents, etc, due to poverty etc... there ought to be a criteria to determine these people's eligibility for gov't assistance like the social security and social welfare system. cambodia can't just ignore these group of unfortunate people. everyone needs help once in their life, thus it's good to create a system to help truly poor and truly disabled individuals, for examples those who lost their arms, legs, eye sights, etc, etc... thank you for your bright vision and god bless you and cambodia and all our helpless khmer people.
ps: also do suggest this great idea to the competing political party because i'm sure which ever political takes care of their our khmer people will be the most popular and people will overwhelmingly vote for them when they see they are caring and take national interest seriously before any personal interest like those of the past regime. we all can make a difference for cambodia. god bless cambodia.
this will definitely create more jobs for our young khmer generation. god bless cambodia.
Dear Nayan Chanda,
Could you please take your royal princess guru Jasmina back so that WE (SRP members)including myself can do our business peacefully.
Get your stinky curry butts - your guru Jasmina and yourself out of Cambodia, would you?
Thank your for your understanding.
