Hang Chakra, the editor-in-chief of the Khmer Machas Srok newspaper, was released from Prey Sar jail at 4PM on 13 April.

Hang Chakra told RFA reporter that he is happy and he plans to have a Buddhist blessing at a pagoda to rid himself of all the bad luck. He will gather with all his relatives tomorrow to greet the New Year Tevoda (angel).

Heng Hak, the deputy director of the ministry of Interior, told RFA this afternoon that Hang Chakra, along with 23 other prisoners in Prey Sar jail, were released this afternoon following a royal pardon order issued by King Sihamoni so that they may be reunited with their families.

(Additional information is forthcoming this evening).

Thank to the intervention of our king. I hope the king would have any preventative measures to ensure this won't happen again.

He is obliged to ensure safety and security of cambodians,and put a STOP to abuses by his officials(Montrey reachkas).

Mr Hang desrves a bravery reward, for his comments for better cambodian society.

Be in good health,and may god bless you.
