By ucanews.com reporter, Phnom Penh
A worker with the Maryknoll mission in Cambodia has been arrested for allegedly distributing defamatory leaflets against a “Cambodian government politician.”
So Khemrak, a former Royal University of Phnom Penh student, was arrested on Jan. 29, as a result of confessions made by four other people arrested earlier for the same offence in Takeo in southern Cambodia, according to the Khmer-language Rasmei Kampuchea, the country’s most popular daily.
Khemrak denied distributing the leaflets, saying he only overheard one of the other four talking about them.
Another person arrested with Khemrak – Ngo Meng Hong – also denied distributing the leaflets but admits he has had some in his possession since 2008.
Police found more than 200 leaflets in Hong’s home, the paper reported. Some 85 leaflets were distributed around Phnom Penh last week.
Op Siphal, a Maryknoll office manager, admitted Khemrak is one of 172 workers for the local Maryknoll mission but denied the Church institution had anything to do with his spare time activities.
Khemrak works for Karol and Setha, (Knowledge and Reflection on Life and Sexuality Through a Holistic Approach), a Maryknoll program, he said.
“We just provide a job for him. We don’t know about his activities outside the office,” Siphal told ucanews.com.
If found guilty Khemrak could face up to two years in jail and be fined 1.4 million riel (about US$345).
The US-based Maryknoll family consists of Fathers and Brothers, Sisters and lay workers dedicated to mission and social work outside the United States.

Boy..he's very attractive young Cambodian man.
All Khmers are against this regime will be arrested.
i think it's not smart to go anti-cambodia. instead, people who want changes should demand reforms, better housing for the needy people, better gov't services, etc..., but avoid going political because cambodia doesn't need that sort of defamatory, inflamatory, slandering, libeling, etc, etc with the intention to ruin cambodia and a person's good reputation. because all of this is more of personal in motive and serves nothing useful for cambodia as a nation, really! wake up, don't be so stupid, ok! get better education, ok! and don't play game with the law, you can not win with the law, really! you're young and have lots of potential, stay in school instead and do something useful like helping to make a real difference in cambodia, etc, ok! god bless all.
speak for yourself only, asshole! i love cambodia. you stay overseas forever, ok!
defamation has no room in the court of law, you know! stop being ignorant and uncivilized, ok! respect and know the rule of law, ok! what planet are people from? didn't you know anything about khmer culture, khmer law, khmer way or the highway, really!
11:57 PM, fuck you.
don't try to inflame cambodia, then go running and hiding behind the name of freedom, etc, ok! not wise nor smart thing, ok! wake up and get educated, young man! you have potential for being young, etc, don't ruin your future by being stupid, ok!

You all must be Yourn’s dogs, if you all are Khmer you must have brains death, and you should shut up. You all seem don’t understand about the situation in Cambodia that is getting worst and worst now. Everything in the country is all destroyed, the forest, the mine and other natural resources, including the poor citizens etc… The roads and buildings are built for Yourn only. Why you all still don’t see any things wrong yet? Or you all are brain washed by Vietcong thieves. If that so, just wait for your bad time to come.
So Khemrak and Ngor Meng Hong you all are the hero for all Khmer nationalist and all Khmer victim by Hun’s regime that installed by Yourn, at this generation; we respected you all. Your names will be fame in the future.
However, nowadays there still some people who have brains death; they seem don’t understand about the situation in Cambodia that is getting worst and worst for Khmer nation.
terrorist activity will not be tolerated in cambodia, ok!
