Activist names alleged Case 004 crime sites


 The Phnom Penh Post
James O'Toole, June 20, 2011

Local activist Theary Seng, who has courted controversy in recent weeks with her public statements on the court's third and fourth cases, issued a statement today details what she says are the crime sites involved in the court's Case 004 investigation. Victims hoping to join the case as civil parties must prove that they suffered as a result of crimes committed at one of the sites in the investigation, and Theary Seng has urged prospective applicants to come forward and put pressure on the judges to investigate the case properly. The statement, which can be read in full here, is excerpted below:

Former king sihanouk is protected by the Cambodian constitution. To invite him to the KRT, the constitution must be amended, particularly Art 7 which reads: The king is inviolable.

Whether Cambodian politicians are brave to change the constitution or not...as some of them had also been involved in the KR too.
