Film Banned in Cambodia (3/8/2011)A third attempt to show Who Killed Chea Vichea? to garment workers in Cambodia was blocked on Tuesday March 8, this time by management of the restaurant where the union federation was screening it. Two previous attempts to screen the movie have been broken up by riot police.

A restaurant employee told Voice of America that local authorities called the restaurant and ordered the screening halted. Also on Tuesday, the governor of Phnom Penh barred a coalition of women's groups from holding a gathering to celebrate International Women's Day.
