The lower court today gave me a guilty verdict and ordered me to pay a fine of the equivalent of US$4.500.
After hearing the verdict we lit a candle in front of the courthouse and marched it around the city, followed by hundreds of supporters.
There were more police than marchers. The police were very heavily armed and many of our supporters were brutally beaten. Our bodyguards were the first targets but our MPs and women supporters formed a human shield to protect them. It was very risky but we broke open many barricades and marched forward with me heading with the party leader as we were secured by police who made sure that we would not be touched. We were nevertheless pushed around severely as we were trying to defend our supporters from the brutality of the police.
It all ended well and we showed to the people that justice was not delivered and the fight will continue.
I will not pay the fine and my party agrees with my decision. I will appeal.
A bit bruised but in very good spirit.
Thank you all for the support so far.

ReplyDeleteDisgrace Mu Sochua’s problem all along, is that she is trying to be a politician. She's not, never has been and quite obviously, never will be. She should have just been herself, provide alternative policies and show Khmer people what a great alternative MP opposition she would be. Instead, her foray into being a politician has been a disaster. She comes across as pretending to be something she's not. Now, her political career is on the line and herself also in the hot water.
ReplyDeleteWhile the nation is facing complex economic, social and environmental issues disgrace Mu Sochua tried to promote her political stunt, aimed to get media attention. If this wasn’t such a clear demonstration of her selfish pursuit of personal ambition it would be laughable. There is no doubt that Mu Sochua has no real regard for the best interest of the nation. She is driven solely by a desire to become a “Champion of Women” by any means available to her, even if that has the potential to destabilize the country. Even worse she now says that she will appeal her case against Prime Minister Hun Sen to the Appeal court following the announcement of her guilty verdict by the Phnom Penh municipal court.
People of integrity admit their faults, make amends and are judged fairly...Disgrace Mu Sochua is lacking in integrity and common sense and tries to change Cambodia into her own world. As long as Cambodia’s Court doesn’t issue any verdict which is fitted for her political stunt, she will scream for the justice all day long.
