The U.N.-backed tribunal sentenced Duch to 35 years in prison on Monday for his role in the deaths of at least 14,000 people as the Cambodian regime's chief torturer three decades ago.

    The case #1 is done and the case #2, #3, and so on are much more important so they should be done in the shorter period of time. To me and others, Duch should received death sentence compare with the crime he committed.

    Not justice because Duch is a small one, how about the big leaders who were the true leaders ( e.g. Sihanouk........and China + Vietnam )
