LONG BEACH - Residents are invited to a moot Khmer Rouge war crimes tribunal Saturday between noon and 4:30 p.m. at the Mark Twain Library, 1401 E. Anaheim St.
The Applied Social Research Institute of Cambodia, which was founded by medical sociologist Leakhena Nou, is playing host to the event. Her group helped collect survivor testimonies among Cambodian-American refugees that may be used in the tribunal.
Four surviving Khmer Rouge leaders - Nuon Chea, Ieng Sary, Ieng Thirith and Khieu Samphan - will be on trial. An estimated 2million Cambodians died during the Khmer Rouge reign between 1975 and 1979.
Attorneys representing survivors of the Killing Fields will be on hand. There will be presentations about the tribunal as well as a discussion about reparations aimed at understanding what the Cambodian community in the U.S. hopes to learn and gain from the trial.
Survivors are encouraged to bring mementos or photos and share their stories of survival. Community members can also ask questions and voice concerns about the upcoming trial with attorneys.
