A Cambodian opposition lawmaker convicted of defaming the country's prime minister has refused to pay a court-ordered fine, though her defiance could land her in prison.
Phnom Penh Municipal Court ordered Mu Sochua of the Sam Rainsy Party to pay 8.5 million riel ($2,000) to the state and another 8 million riel ($1,882) in compensation to Prime Minister Hun Sen, following her conviction last August. The deadline was Thursday, but no action was immediately taken against her.
Mu Sochua insisted she would not pay the money, and was prepared to go to prison, for what could be up to six months. She claims the court's ruling was politically motivated.
Government and judicial officials were unavailable for comment Thursday, though they deny the courts are under political influence.
The case is one of a series Hun Sen's government has filed to intimidate critics in the opposition and the press. After Mu Sochua's conviction, the New York-based based group Human Rights Watch said the prime minister had "a long history of trying to muzzle Cambodia's political opposition and undermine the independence of the legal profession."
On Wednesday, the U.N. expressed concern about the proceedings.
"We believe this highly politicized case appears to show an alarming erosion of both freedom of expression and the independence of the judiciary in Cambodia," said Rupert Colville, a spokesman for U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay.
The case against Mu Sochua was filed after she attempted to sue the prime minister for defamation, after he used offensive language in what appeared to be a reference to her in two speeches. Her suit was dropped by the court, which ruled it groundless.
Speaking to reporters at her party headquarters in the capital Phnom Penh, Mu Sochua said she didn't fear being arrested.
"I have vowed that I would not pay compensation, and I am ready to go to prison," she said. "I have done nothing wrong. I did not do any thing that violated the law."

the prime minister who conflicts with srey in the world is hun sen
ReplyDeleteYes, the New York-based based group Human Rights Watch, UN, US, European Union and the world have to do some thing about this doggy Hun Sen government. Otherwise, Hun Sen still thinks that whatever he does is OK to do. Topple doggy Hun Sen himself from power is THE BEST option.

1:08AM I 100% agreed with you.hun sen he doesn't know himself who he is,his ancestors are Khmer nation but hun sen is protecting vietcong(hyenas)to encroach Khmer's border and let let these thieves create rain,storm in Cambodia.
ReplyDeleteI and most Cambodian people not hate hun sen if he serve Cambodian and his country in the right way.
If Mr.Penh Sovann still in power,Cambodia wouldn't be a lot of troubles like today.
Regarding on MP MU SOCHUA and hun sen case,hun sen is 100% wrong,hun sen also knew that he is not right but he turn the case backward by purpose.It is my first time in my life that I heard a prime minister sue a lady with a none national issue like hun sen did.
hun sen should end this inessential issue and should look beyond the border before your death come in order to maintain your family,your name in good history.
Hun Sen,I know that you are riding on a dangerous tiger back,if I were you I have to find the way out from that tiger and if I can not,I rather sacrifice myself for my nation,my country and my younger generation to come.
If the site is permanently observed by Hanoi, Ah Sen's boss then we need to send stronger message to both to leave Khmer alone. Take all Ah Youn illegal to Hanoi and have Khmer leave in peace.

Eh "just google man", I banged your mother and sisters over and over. Do you know how I know they are yours, because the way they talked sounded just like you do. And they are all retarded just like you are. If you don’t have anything to do, go fuck yourself, and leave your mother and sisters alone; they are mine.
ReplyDeleteIf you want to respond me, do it in English; I don’t understand khmer. Hell, you are so retarded that you don’t even know how to write English decently. All you know is coping and pasting.

ReplyDeleteJay yoo Mu Sohau, Khmer Hero, go all the ways....
ReplyDeleteMadam Mu Sochua, you are quite right that YOU HAVE DONE NOTHING WRONG and YOU DID NOT DO ANYTHING THAT VIOLATED THE LAW, and why would you have to surrender yourself for the abuser. Mu you have the rights to defend yourself.
ReplyDeleteI overSEE
I don't think oily and thick face woman Mu Sochua is brave enough not pay the fine but happy to serve jail time. In 2008, when a coward Sam Rainsy was fine 10 Million Riel by the NEC during national election campaign, he always refused to pay the fine, but when he had run out of option and no where to go, on 26 February 2009, SRP officer brought money to pay off the fine.
ReplyDeleteAs for Mu Sochua's case, she has been used the same tactic like her boss. If she goes to jail, she won't dare to spend the whole jail term, but she might spend a short time in jail to promote her political stunt and then instructs someone as her lawyer to pay the fine.
Disgraced Mu Sochua and Sam Rainsy as well as other SRP supporters, they are brave only in front of microphone or computer but when they face with jail time, they will bow their head to the ground or run away to overseas. Indeed, they are shameless in speaking louder more than they can do because they are thick face group and loser.

Breaking News, Ah Sen, called Ah Nal is assassinated this afternoon. This could be that Youn is no longer needing this dog. Please call friends and families to celebrate ah Hun Nal's death. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteIt's very simple. But you cannot turn time backward. If all the anti-CPP guys are so unhappy with the current regime, why they didn't ask the NATO to intervene and liberate Cambodia from the Khmer Rouge of Pol Pot in 1979 or begged the US Congress not to cut support to Lon Nol's Khmer Republic that led to the Khmer Rouge coming to power in 1975.Then everybody will be happy!!!
