Mam Sonando indicated at the hearing that he will sue Sourn Serey Ratha if the latter used the name of the Association of Democrats as a shield to commit any crime.
On 14 September 2012, the Phnom Penh municipal court continued its hearing in the case involving Mam Sonando and those involved. This is the 4th day of the court hearing.
The hearing allowed Mam Sonando, the accused, to speak up about his observation and it also allowed his lawyer to speak up about the progress for the past 3 days of hearing.
During Friday’s morning hearing, the court allowed Mam Sonando to be the first – among 8 other accused – to speak up. Mam Sonando still claimed that he is not involved in forming any secession zone, and the Association of Democrats is only acting to help the poor in that region. He added that, if there is any intervention by members of his association, he said that they were only helping the local authority to resolve any issue that took place there.
As for the goal of his association, as well as his personal views, he only wants the people to understand about the law and freedom rights, and if there were any violence that took place, it was contrary to his view. Regarding a [government] witness who claimed that he is involved with Sourn Serey Ratha, the president of the US-based KPPM, he admitted that it was the case, however such relation took place because he was acting as a reporter only.
Mam Sonando indicated at the hearing that he will sue Sourn Serey Ratha if the latter used the name of the Association of Democrats as a shield to commit any crime.
Nevertheless, this morning, the prosecutor of the Phnom Penh municipal court, asked the judge to charge Mam Sonando as he was accused.
Between 9AM and noon on Friday 14 September, the court still continues to hold its hearing.
Outside of the court room, a crowd of several hundreds of people continue to yell on speakers to demand for the court to release him. However, a force of several hundreds of cops was brought in and they spread out around the court building. The cops also closed a portion of Preah Moniret Street, between the Olympic stadium water tank and the Neang Korng-hing statue. Traffic is not allowed in this portion of the street for the past 4 days.

Why the defendant wears suit? The Cambodian Communist (Hun Sen) weas trying to show foreigners that he has some class, so he allow the defendant to wear suit in his court. Everything in Cambodia belongs to Hun Sen/Hanoi.
The guy who wears Blue is his uniform. In the US, the security guards wear Kaki or Blue too.
Your question is a stupid question, but I answered it anyway.
