A former Khmer Rouge jailer who oversaw the deaths of some 15,000 people will spend the rest of his life in jail, Cambodia's UN-backed court ruled in a final appeal verdict.
03 Feb 2012
The Telegraph (UK)
"The Supreme Court Chamber decides to impose a sentence of life imprisonment against Kaing Guek Eav," said Kong Srim, president of the court's highest appeal body.
Kaing Guek Eav, better known as Duch, was originally sentenced to 30 years in 2010 for war crimes and crimes against humanity for his role as head of the feared S-21 prison in the late 1970s, but judges ruled on appeal that the initial punishment did not "reflect the gravity of the crimes".
"The crimes by Kaing Guek Eav were undoubtedly among the worst in recorded human history. They deserve the highest penalty available," Kong Srim said.
Duch, wearing a white shirt and a beige jacket, sat impassively in his chair as the ruling was read out, a brief pursing of the lips the only sign of emotion.
Hundreds of Cambodians, including orange-robed monks and elderly survivors of the brutal 1975-1979 regime, packed the court's public gallery to witness the historic conclusion of the tribunal's first-ever Khmer Rouge prosecution.
Led by Pol Pot, who died in 1998, the Khmer Rouge was responsible for one of the worst horrors of the 20th century, wiping out up to two million people through starvation, overwork and execution.
S-21, also known as Tuol Sleng prison, was the centre of the Khmer Rouge security apparatus and thousands of inmates were taken from there for execution in a nearby orchard that served as a "Killing Field"

Of course the companions of the January 7, 1979 was as
executives of the organization of the Khmer Rouge(អង្គការលើ), so it had
transformed and manipulated the Khmer Rouge Tribunal 001 in theater and achive 3 great success:
1. The Khmer Rouge Tribunal much in late and took too long.
2.Number One of the hight responsable was not summoned to the Khmer Rouge Tribunal.
3. It changes the real name (Kaing Kek Ev)
by calling (Duch)that the organization of the Khmer Rouge(អង្គការលើ)
invented a long time ago to deceive the public and
insult the people who are called first or last name (Duch)
for example, the painter (Duch Sideum), the master of music
(Sok Duch) of the Takeov province, the grandparents of Miss Seng Theary
(Duch Som) ect ... broadcast by the global media including Radio France Internationale (RFI & FRA) and often speaking by journalists (Jean François Tan, Kouch kuntheara,Pen Bunna ...).

Duch ,
The real reason behind Duch life jail sentence not because of seeking justice for Khmer Victims but seking justice for former Khmer Viet Minh who jailed and killed in S 21 between 1975-1978 as follow:
1. Keo Meas.
2. Rhos Nhim.
3. Ni Sarann.
4. Norn Sourn.
5. And many more..... .
Note: Rhos Nhim was in law with So Phim.
Theary Seng will be haunted whenever where she is. She has done something wrong in the wrong side of history. She does not know during the Killing Fields because she was too small or just a baby. She did not know where the Angkar Leur/Cap Tren came from. It was originally from Hanoi in the Killing Fields and also has been used in Southern Vietnam where Khmer Krom (Kampuchea Krom) resides until today.
Theary Seng made her look famous, but stupid and naive. She did not know Yuon/Vietnam are still behind until today.
The same thing to Youk Chhang. What hell are these folks from the U.S. have have been misleading the victims and survivors of Khmer Rouges who are a little of knowledge about what happened in the Killing Fields.
Right now, Hanoi and Vietcong/Yuon folks are hopping and laughing because of they are lucky to avoid their evil deeds and committed criminals since before-after War between Americans and Vietcong.
I can not imagine stupid Khmer people (who are brainwashed) like Theary Seng, Youk Chhang, other Khmer folks in the U.S. and Khmer folks who voted for CPP and Yuon because of manipulated January 7.
It is very sad to the little guy has been punished instead of Big Master Minded guys like Hanoi, CPP Yuons (Hor Nam Hong, ect) and more. Hun Sen, Heng Samrin, Chea Sim should be death after Cambodia is completely Vietnamized just like Champa and Khmer Krom.
Hun Sen, Heng Samrin and Chea Sim are still not waking up yet within more than 30 years and still enjoy the fake powers that have been installed by current hidden faced CPP Yuon Hanoi inside Cambodia today until they are death at end of their lives 99 years old.
You Khmer know, that Funcipec and Sam Ransy won elections back in late 1990 until late 2000, seeing that Hun Sen lost his election and then asked hidden faced Yuon military (in the blind eyes of Khmer and Foreign people) ordered to send the grenades into the crowds and scared all peaceful and innocent people. You Khmer and International folks did not know the hidden Yuon faces (forces) were hired to protect Hun Sen from losing powers. These situations confused everyone to remind them that it will happen again like Killing Fields, of courses, it is not going to happen without Hidden Yuon/Vietnamese faces (forces) there pretending to be Cambodian Military or armed forces. Watch out Khmer people! Be prepared! Learn something you don't know what are behind all of those situations.
Remember, the UN Peace Keeping forces during the installation of King Sihanouk and Funcipec in Cambodia! After Funcipec won election, it sounded like the everything was fine or OK, but it was not not before the UN Peace Keeping forces left Cambodia. However, the works of UN were not done yet because there were hidden Vietnamese/Yuon forces from Hanoi and Vietnamese master minded bastards who installed Hun Sen for power, would started coup and sent grenades into innocent Khmer people in 1993 and happened again in 1997.
Again and again, Khmer people were so scared and gave up because they were afraid of second killing fields occurred just like KR Killing Fields. So, now, Khmer folks did not know several hidden Yuon/Vietnamese military arm forces inside Khmer society who pretend to be Khmer/Cambodian armed forces. Khmer/Cambodian soldiers, please don't be fooled and watch out each others when hidden Yuon/Vietnamese faces among Khmer military. Don't let this happen to innocent Khmer people again because of Vietnamese/Yuon forces from Hanoi that protect Hun Sen and hidden CPP officials for their powers.
Khmer/Cambodia Unity and Khmer love Khmer, Khmer Yeurng
