Opposition MP Mu Sochua said that the decision by the Phnom Penh municipal court to reject her defamation lawsuit against Hun Sen sets a bad example, but she did not indicate whether she will pursue her case with the Appeal Court or not.

Mu Sochua told RFA over the phone that the court’s rejection was not conducted independently: “I noted that yesterday, the court just interviewed Samdach PM, and I want to ask what kind of investigation the court conducted, was there any witnesses, etc…? These must be shown before this case can be rejected.”

In the morning of Wednesday 10 June, Hing Bunchea, the deputy prosecutor of the Phnom Penh municipal court, sent a letter to Mrs. Mu Sochua’s lawyer indicating that the lawsuit brought up against Hun Sen on 27 April 2009 for defamation and insult was rejected.

As of today, the prosecutor could not be reached to provide clarification on the reason for the rejection of this lawsuit against Hun Sen.

Kong Sam Onn, Mu Sochua’s defense lawyer, said that, legally, an appeal can be made in this case, but that no decision has been made yet.

Ky Tech, Hun Sen’s lawyer, told RFA that Hun Sen’s lawsuit against Mu Sochua will not end: “The case of Samdach’s lawsuit against Chumteav Mu Sochua is in progress. There is no result yet because the court is taking its legal steps.”

Ny Chakriya, Adhoc investigator director, commented about this case: “This shows that there is no independence in the court process.”

It should be noted that Mrs. Mu Sochua sued Hun Sen for defamation after Hun Sen publicly said in Kampot in April that “there is a “choeung khlang” [thug] woman who likes to instigate problems on others, she ran to hug someone, but she accused [him] of unbuttoning her blouse.”

At the same time, Hun Sen also sued Mu Sochua for defamation after she and her defense lawyer held a press conference to accuse Hun Sen’s fault prior to her starting her lawsuit in the court first.

Expression of vulgar and emotional anger is a sign of one's inability to cope with someone stronger than thy.

Run your mouth all you want. The end of the day, you are an unimportant scrap of shit. Who listens to you?

Reality check, brother.

If you want to know how serious Hun Sen remark to Madame Mu Sochoa, just check with google and search for Dr Richard worth. He was a minister of Internal Affair and has lost his job from minister for just send sexies message to a korean woman. He may also lost his member of parliament too as his party will not want him anymore. So for Hun Sen daring to make such a remark to a member of Parliament, he should loose his political life for ever. we cannot have this kind of crap to be Prime Minister of a country with 2000 years in history. we must find someone far better than that to replace this man.

As a young Cambodian, I love my country and my leaders too. I wish everyone would compromise for our country's image. Our people will be more happy, if our leaders love each other and consolidate to develope our country. Please be humble and recognize each other's good works.
