The failure of Cambodian authorities to officially appoint international reserve co-investigating judge Laurent Kasper-Ansermet to his position at the Khmer Rouge tribunal is hampering progress in the court’s third and fourth cases, an independent monitoring group said yesterday.
In a statement released yesterday, the New York-based Open Society Justice Initiative called for the Supreme Council of Magistracy’s immediate appointment of Laurent Kasper-Ansermet to the position of full co-invesigating judge.
“Contrary to previous practice, the Cambodian government has continued to stall on providing formal approval, effectively leaving the judicial investigations in a state of limbo,” OSJI said in the statement.
Justice Minister Ang Vong Vathana, municipal court president Chiv Keng and Appeal Court prosecutor Uk Savuth, who are all members of the Supreme Council of Magistracy, could not be reached for comment.
OSJI also urged the UN and the court’s donors to “publicly insist” on the immediate endorsement of Judge Kasper-Ansermet as full co-investigating judge. Martin Nesirky, spokesman for the UN Office of the Secretary-General, declined comment yesterday.
On Monday, Kasper-Ansermet revealed that National Co-Investigating Judge You Bunleng had disagreed with him about the release of “important” information regarding cases 003 and 004, in a statement released by the court.
Judge Bunleng has stated that Judge Kasper-Ansermet does not yet have the legal authority to take action regarding cases 003 and 004.

I agree with Nuon Chea saying that the Communist Party of Kampuchea was under the influence of yuon Hanoi base on the profile and events happening since the creation of the Communist Party of Kampuchea or CPK in 1960 as follow:
CPK or the Communist Party of Kampuchea was created in 1960 under the name of the Workers' Party of Kampuchea to be remained alliance with Hanoi but not under order of Hanoi anymore by :
1. Tou Samouth.
2. Noun Chea.
3. Pol Pot.
4. Ieng Sary.
5. So Phim .
6. And many more of former senior Khmer Viet Minh commander.
Note: Tou Samouth and So Phim played very immportant role in joining former Khmer Viet Minh fighters int the CPK and other played an immportant rol in joining Tamouk and Ke Pok ect.... .
The worker's party was renaming to CPK in 1966 after Tou Samouth was arrested and killed in 1962.
So from the beginning most members and the members of central committee of CPK were former Khmer Viet Minh like Tou Samouth, So Phim , Rhos Nhim.
I would like to jump kick that YounBunleng in the head.
