Kong Sothanarith, VOA Khmer | Phnom Penh
“He said, ‘Comrade, clear them out.’”
Testifying for a seventh day before the Khmer Rouge tribunal, convicted prison chief Duch said he was ordered to torture prisoners by Nuon Chea, the regime’s chief ideologue, who is on trial for atrocity crimes.
Duch said Pol Pot, the leader of the secretive regime, told him not to use torture as an interrogation measure, as more and more suspected spies and informants were brought to the prison he ran, S-21.
Three days later, Nuon Chea ordered him to extract confessions under torture, Duch said.
Duch is helping prosecutors describe the inner workings of the regime as they seek to tie three suspects—Nuon Chea, Khieu Samphan, and Ieng Sary—to atrocity crimes committed by the Khmer Rouge under their leadership.
Duch said Nuon Chea also ordered him to execute all remaining prisoners at S-21 as Vietnamese-led forces ousted the Khmer Rouge from the power and pushed them out of the capital.
“He said, ‘Comrade, clear them out,’” Duch quoted Noun Chea as saying. Duch said that he asked to spare the lives of four prisoners, but those prisoners were later killed by other prison cadre as Vietnamese troops reached Phnom Penh.
In contrast to the details Duch has provided on Nuon Chea’s role in the Khmer Rouge, Duch told the court Thursday he knew little of Ieng Sary’s work and had seen him only twice during the reign of the regime.

Rouge?
As long as some Khmer or Cambodian still not learning that this is Hanoi ECCC and it is all about youn Hanoi ambition to put Lao and Cambodia under yuon annex and exterminate ethnic Cambodian from our homeland just look at million of illegal yuon migrants’ kept inflowing into Cambodian as part of Indochina Federation.
Khmer must learn from real Khmer history and look at other countries around our country they all gone as follow:
1. Champa country gone by yuon Hanoi.
2. Prey Norkor gone by yuon Hanoi.
3. Kampuchea-Krom gone by yuon Hanoi.
4. Lao gone by yuon Hanoi.
5. Cambodia fully in yuon Hanoi hands.
6. Thailand will be next .
Wake up all Khmer do not be fooled and misleaded by this Hanoi ECCC under the name of seeking justice for 1.7 million Cambodian who were killed between 1975-1979.
Sihanouk said,"he will come to Khmer Rouge Trial to clear out during
Khmer Rouge regime".
He did not keep his words,so he is
a flip flopper.What kind of king
he is.He is a Khmer killer and traitor.
Nuon Chea or Khiev Samphan should
ask him to show up at the court.
5:46am I strongly support your vision as the fact.
Thank you 5:46 am,
Thank you again in term of we both as Khmer and some other Khmer see Indochina Federation is a great danger for our poor country.
Khmer love Khmer.
