Unheard of! Sunday Kangaroo court sentencing for man printing KI-Media article: Is the Phnom Penh regime that scared?

Seng Kunakar: Arrested and sentenced by a Sunday Kangaroo Court for printing and distributing article posted on KI-Media

19 Dec 2010
Cambodia Express News
Translated from Khmer by Soy


In the morning of 19 Dec, the Phnom Penh municipal decided to sentence a man who is the chief security officer for a rice warehouse belonging to the World Food Program, who was involved in the distribution of leaflets that insult the government leaders, to 6-month of jail time and fined him 1 million riels ($250).

Kor (Luy Ott Dak Teuk!) Vandy, the [only] judge [in Cambodia who works on Sunday] sentenced this man personally and handed him a 6-month jail time, as well as 1 million riels ($250) in fine after charging him of incitation to criminal act, etc… as stipulated in Article 495 of the criminal code.

40-year-old Seng Kunakar was arrested by the Russei Keo police on 17 Dec 2010 and he was brought in for questioning, then he was sent to court on 18 Dec. This man printed leaflet that is deemed insulting the government leaders and which was posted on the KI-Media website on 16 Dec 210. He then distributed them to other employees and co-workers for them to read. He was snitched upon and the police did a search to find and arrest him.

During his [very unusual] hearing, Seng Kunakar denied that he distributed them, he said that he only printed it and shared it to others for reading only. Nevertheless, a snitch-witness claimed that Seng Kunakar really printed and distributed this leaflet.

I don't understand why cambodian government are afraid of free speech. The leaders of the country have enough ph.d's to know that democracy was built on free speech.

Let his man go...

How can Khmer express their feeling involving with Cambodia territorial problems and other unfairness in the society? Who suppress Cambodians in all types of forms... Is it Cambodian mindset or Yuon mindset to initiate to ban all requirements made by ancient Khmer to brighten their country? Why RGC not explain the true information to its people? Why RGC usually use court to suppress ancient Khmer who loves his/her country by sharing feeling and understandings? Or RGC has been something and trying to hide those from the public? Why not just invite ancient Khmer to say what they want and respond and solve their problems?

Stupid Soy, why do you add "[in Cambodia who works on Sunday]"?

It is not a valid and fair translation. It is a proof that you and KI-Media band are distorting the information for propaganda purpose.

It is paranoia as in the KR time. Let the man go. If he is not working to violently or illegally to over throw any individual or goverment, he had not done anything to deserve to be jailed. Do not remain a country of kangaroo courts and jungle laws. You van never imprison thoughts and conscienses, many facists and dictators have tried.

SRP must show leadership model mean to bring higher or greater standard than ordinary peolpe willing to accept, that lead to chang if the things without need a chang we don't need leader we may want manager that enought. SRP try to gain support by using moedl criticising individaul HUN sen, all SRP hundred thousand of them wast energy and times kept, kept, and kept searcing, forcusing for CPP negative and spread it out. Ok here the outcome, all form of criticising, jealousy, anger, hatred, these form are the gosh of all destruction any man or women possess with thse form are drawn to self most, the most destructive, destructive and destructive magnetizing. People will not willing to joint, listen and support SRP who master at managing criticise it happen to indivdaul and to the whole Party. May I reach out to HE.

Anonymous said...

In the USA, Germany, UK and ... you can copy x-pages for your friends, the judge has no right to punish you because that is your right as people live in. The leaders of those countries are role model for their people, when they act somethings wrong people can criticise them or protest in pease against them, that is normal, why because the leader get power from people. But in Cambodia the leaders are GOD falls from shited sky , they bell as democracy but roll like communisn or dictators system. The westeners teach them X-methods to improve them how to lead the country into the right way but those are a new mothodes to oppress khmer people only. That is Cambodia led by most of them were the former Khmer Rouge with full of khmer blood in their hand. Worst is pushing Cambodia into "Indochina Forderation". I've always heard they bell the soldarity "Dang Ket" between Viet and Kampuchea had/has 1000 years before till now, but in the Khmer history maybe just for 350 years only after breakup of Khmer Angkor. Khmer had only problem with Champa and Siam. Why they manipulate the history like this? Most of Khmer know this history very well why they still accept the manipulated history by CPP and Viet. If you all believe like this further, you are also dumb stupid.

KI and Sam Rainsy are happy to use the innocent people to gain popularity. Their followers were thrown to jail for their leaders' irresponsible acts of cowardice because they couldn't afford to flee the country like Sam Rainsy. KI people could afford to be irresponsibly aggressive and provocative because they are anonymous and enjoy life in foreign countries. People here have to adopt their own way of opposing the government and should not follow these flying-foxes' style. We go to protest whenever we can. Reflect what you have done, Mr. Sam Rainsy! For KI, you should ask yourself: have the country's human right and democracy been improved by the impact of your cursing and provocative blog posts? Have people's poverty been reduced by your impact of anonymous attack of the government for your own pleasure and hobby when you are free from work?
