During the KR Tribunal hearing held on 27 March, the co-prosecutors raised a number of documents related to S-21 (Tuol Sleng) reports to question Duch in order to pinpoint the accused.

Raising the S-21 reports with Duch was done to seek proof showing relationships between S-21 and the KR leaders, in particular Nuon Chea, the 2nd top leader of the KR regime.

Duch confirmed at the hearing about the writing found on a number of documents showed Nuon Chea’s involvement in 1977: “On the top box, on the left hand side, it is written: ‘Not read yet. One copy for Brother Nuon 11 Nov. 1977’. That’s the handwriting of Son Sen, my boss. Regarding the word ‘Brother Nuon’, it is directed to Mr. Nuon Chea.”


We can see that by raising these documents to question Duch at this time, the aim of the prosecution is to gather additional proof linking Nuon Chea to military security work within the Democratic Kampuchea (DK) regime.

During the hearing, Nuon Chea’s defense lawyer objected to the prosecution’s tactics as it could jeopardize his client.

Nuon Chea’s lawyer indicated that linking his client’s role to S-21 is a danger for his client and this is not part of this hearing: “Questioning about my client’s role in S-21 after 1977 brings injuries to my client. Therefore, we cannot bring up any issue after 1977 or 1978. Therefore, debating about his responsibility within S-21 [cannot] be taken out of context.”

Nuon Chea’s lawyer asked the court to hold another hearing if the prosecution wants to discuss about S-21 and the court must also summon other witnesses and bring in additional proofs.

In response the issue above raised by Nuon Chea’s lawyer, the prosecution indicated that what was asked involves the role of the accused and it is in agreement with the sub-division of the case for the current hearing.

The prosecution added that this role is not about detailed questioning either: “This is related to the relationship means with other groups. At the same time, in the case of Nuon Chea, we just want to show the proof to explain his basic role regarding security operation…”

The prosecution added that this action is done to show proof on the suspicion.

Just like several other times before, the objection raised by Nuon Chea’s lawyer was rejected by Nil Non: “Because the objection raised just now by accused Nuon Chea’s international lawyer over the framework and the extent of the questioning made by the co-prosecutor, the chamber decides that the objection by the international defense lawyer is not valid because the chamber had already made the decision.”

Duch’s questioning session did not complete and it will continue on Wednesday 28 March.

Dumb Yuon/Vietnamese Nil Nonn is a faking Khmer/Cambodian citizen who does not know anything to find the justice for the Victims of Killing Fields coming from Hanoi master-minded bastards. Those Hanoi plans were to control Cambodia and then swallow Cambodia land like a poison snake.

That is why many Dumb Yuon judges of ECCC in CPP regime are trying to protect the criminals of Communist Yuon Hanoi.

Those Dumb Yuon are still not going anywhere near to avoid the crimes against Humanity.

Duch doesn't need to answer any questions for Dumb Yuon judges and lawyers of ECCC, serving only Dumb Yuon's interests.

Duck, you are going to die anyway in the hand of Dumb Yuon killers from Hanoi who have been hiding in the current and corrupted CPP regime (Dumb Yuon regime as a second regime of Hanoi Regime).

Just drop the flip-flopped answers that you don't know, Mr. Kang Kak Euv. You need to give the good lessons to all young Khmer generation to learn about what happened to Killing Fields.

Khmer would have save your life without the Dumb Yuon CPP regime if you told the truth.

You can help rebuild Cambodia and help save Khmer people who are the under the oppression of Dumb Yuon dog Hun Sen and his Dumb Yuon masters in Hanoi.

You will be protected by Khmer people who want the truth so stop be flip-flopped to accuse Nuon Chea (who is very honest to tell the truth without being afraid of telling the truth). It is not fair for you, Mr. Duck, to answer the flip-flipped questions coming the stinky mouths of Dumb Yuon judges of ECCC.

Today, Dumb Youn/Vietnamese leaders in Hanoi have been still controlling Cambodian via the bad CPP regime, by providing the secret and dirty tactic plans to win the fake justice for Khmer victims of Killing Fields in term of the Dumb Yuon Hanoi's interests.

Just watch out, Mr. Kang Kak Euv, the Dumb Yuon masters who control CPP puppet government of Dumb Yuon dog Hun Sen who still want to kill you or end your life anyway.

Khmer people and heroes want to get out of Dumb Yuon completely because of pressures of the International Communities, the UN, EU and other friends around the world.
