Today, the Cambodia Daily reported that 318 victims of the KR regime filed for Case 003 which the Co-Investigating Judges (CIJs) of the KR Tribunal (KRT) seem to do everything they can to derail this case. Although the CIJs did not provide any information on Case 003 that would help the victims apply for this case, former KR navy commander Meas Muth and air force commander Sou Met would be implicated in this case.
Out the 318 victims who have applied in Case 003, 178 of them have also applied for Case 004 in which three mid-level KR leaders are accused of criminal involvement, including genocide. One of the three mid-level KR leaders would be Im Chaem who is currently a defiant deputy commune chief in the KR stronghold of Anlong Veng district.
Celine Trublin, Chief of mission of the legal aid group Avocats Sans Frontieres France (France Lawyers Without Borders) indicated that 176 of its clients who were already involved in Case 002 were willing to apply for Cases 003 and 004 as well.
Hun Xen and Cambodian judicial officers at the KRT – who all belong to Hun Xen’s CPP party – have expressed strong opposition to both Cases 003 and 004. Hun Xen’s opposition to additional court cases is a clear interference on the judicial system. Opposition to these two cases by Cambodian judicial officers and by the connivance by certain International judge at the court clearly shows the current travesty of justice in Cambodia. It appears that after a certain length of stay in Cambodia, some of the International judges had allowed the corrupt Cambodian judicial mindset to soak into their body and drown their independent mind.
Two of the first applicants to Case 003 saw their applications summarily rejected: human rights activists Theary Seng and New Zealander Rob Hamill whose brother, Kerry Hamill, was captured by the KR and later killed in S-21 jail.
The handling of Cases 003 and 004 is a major embarrassment for the KRT and will leave an indelible black mark on the legacy of this institution.

I don't this court is a UN sponsored court at all. It looks like a court set up Hun Sen to make international
communities moneys. If this court is an international of standard, all judges, lawyers shouldn't stay outside of the court perimeter to have influence from government of Cambodia. All Cambodian judges have to stay out from contacting Cambodian officials of all levels.

The UN Court of the Khmer Rouge Tribunal (KRT) is powerless because
all of them are Khmer judicial officers from Hun Sen clans.
The Cambodia is a fake neutral state.
It is a communist dictatorship country leading by Hun Sen.
Rob Hamill is a champion, a trustworthy, honest man, an Olympic hero for new zealand, and to have his case for his brother go unheard is injustice for both the victims and new zealand. can anybody tell me why his case was THROWN out?
Why did the court try to shut case 003 or 004 up because if they are to go ahead, it will lead into other cases which is something that they are trying to avoid for a long time. The main criminals are those of the king and his clans that he had created such as Pol Pot including Hun Sen. But Hun Sen is an acception because he was working between the old and the new revelution.
Up until today, not many ex-khmer rough been convicted for war crimes against humanity, but I am also sure that no one in this world can get away from any crime that they have committed. So, it is a matter of time. The judgement day will soon come by then be prepared for the worst outcome for what they had done or otherwis try to repend now before it is too late.
Try to do good, come up with confession and tell all about it. If you do, your sentence will reduced. Hopefully, you too can enter the kingdom of God. E.g. everything that you see every day is only the ilussion and what you do is the good deed that you will earn. So, be good to one another and be true to yourself and to others.
The UN knew that the King is the one that is responsible for his nation's down fall. He was not educated enough to understand about how to be an effective leader. As a matter of fact king is not suppose to play politic. If he was to leave everything for Lon Nol, he would have still be a good king and not 1.7 gone either.
Un however, knew that to trial this king, there will be no benefit for them unlike Sudam Husen, they have like oil to benefit from. Plus they also knew that there are USSR, Viet, Chinese are still behind this ex-king and his money family.
I am also angry for the lost of my extended family along with 1.7 millions but I'm also sure they all will pay for this in the end.
