Khmer Rouge Survivors Push Case Against Opposition Official


Chum Mey
By Kong Sothanarith, VOA Khmer 05.12.2013

PHNOM PENH - Lawyers for survivors of the Khmer Rouge prison Tuol Sleng have requested that the court go forward with a case against a senior opposition leader.

Kem Sokha, vice president of the Cambodia National Rescue Party, is facing a complaint of public defamation, for alleged comments he made claiming Vietnamese forces had created a “falsified prison” in Tuol Sleng after they ousted the Khmer Rouge.

Those alleged comments angered some survivors of the prison, which was a major torture center for the Khmer Rouge. Kem Sokha has denied making the remarks, and has said an audio tape at the center of the allegations was doctored.
Kouy Thunna, a lawyer for Chum Mey, a Tuol Sleng survivor, and three others, said he filed a request to the court Wednesday that it act against Kem Sokha.
Kem Sokha’s supporters say the court case is an act of intimidation against the opposition by courts that are widely seen as politically biased and corrupt.

The announcement comes on the heels of another lawsuit filed against an opposition newspaper this week, this one by the government alleging that the paper defamed the military in a story in which it quoted Kem Sokha as being critical of security forces’ involvement in the July elections.

Both lawsuits invoke a defamation clause in the penal code that makes it a criminal offense, with punishment including jail time and fines.

Hun/NEC/CPP are CV in controlled e.g Hun said 'the truth is I am a Viet's puppet and nobody wants to lose their land or sea but because we are under their controlled'. Therefore, whatever happens right now, the VC create one problem after another to frame and defame our being. These people will not stop, they are full of shit, they lied, cheated, recieved and manipulated to get what they want e,g to control over the whole srok khmer. Right now, they are controlling everythig, from gov't level to small busineses and at the same time they fool the international community not to interfere in our internal affair while they do, why? because they owed too much money to China and USSR and the only way to meet such repayment, they asked both China and USSR to allow them to take control over Cambodia. Of course for the Chinese and Russia, they don't care, as long as they get their money back is all it matters.

Right now, our country is being stripped of from everything to everything else e,g land grabbing, owning ankho wat, mount Boker, Koh Tral and land concession for 99 years, sucking up our Iron Oar, rice, fish, sand and send them off to China in the name of debt repayment. These countries have helped each other to destroy their neighbouring countries for thousand of years e.g like China, they have like 56 nations under a one roof and now they want Thaiwan, Hong Kong, Tebit and Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and the whole southeast asia to be under their roof as well. Their evil tactics and tricks are plentiful. They lied cheated and killed without mercy to get what they want.

It is time all nations to wake up before it is too late. Now they are spreading into Thailand, Srik Lanka, Africa and Middle East and making the US troops running around like the headless chucks while they just sit and laugh. Because for the Chinese and Russia, they used the technique of 'killing two birds with one stone', that is, 'creating a civil war' and in the end, they would blame on victims who killed victims and the left over victims will have to live as slaved like, in the name of debt repayment because of puchasing thier war related weapons.

So, wake up everyone, just look into the past, you will see the future. As for Cambodia, It is not court or individual trying to stir up shit, it is the VC and Chinese supported within the system, is the one who stirring up the shit within it. It is time for international community to recognise this true fact or else, that is it. we all are finished.

The tactic to divert the public's attention from the real issue - the fraudulent election - has surfaced, but this time the evil Vietnam and its slave Hun Sen's tactics will backfire.

Khmer people and the world are familiar with this trick already.

Khmer epople have voted the Yuon slave CPP party and Hun Sen out.

Hun Sen must go !!

The CPP's time is up !!

kem sokha is sort of stupid. he plays with history. and he wants to be a leader of cambodia? that is ndangerous for cambodia to have such incompetent, unethical leader like him! leaders don't just say anything to win people are watching their leaders carefully!

Wow "Both lawsuits invoke a defamation clause in the penal code that makes it a criminal offense, with punishment including jail time and fines" the punishment for making a statement is hash compare to Yeap CPP MPs lawmaker involved in a hit a run traiffic accident that actually killed people and he is free.

In addition Sokha is not even engage in KR past or present unlike Hun Sen who is engaged and have killed Khmer people. It could be the family members these victim is laught a law case on behave of the CPP.
So Hun Sen former, present and future killer of Khmer people include many other within the CPP as MP. Yet he & they are still free?

So in summary only the CPP MPs have the license to kill Khmer people without prosection or life sentence to prision. They all must be trained by Vietnam's vietcong MI4.
Give me a break...

does kem sokha and sam rainsy know anything about pol pot's primitive KR regime? leaders should not be so ignorant like this!

Anonymous said...

hun sen lived through pol pot's primitive KR regime, sam rainsy did not. so who has more experience? i say hun sen! what you do think?

i never see sam rainsy console khmer people of the losses they experienced under the primitive pol pot's KR regime. don't people want an experienced leader? why pick the inexperienced one? so he can easily be manipulated by his foreign friends? why take advantage of cambodia all the time? why?

The only Hun experienced throughtout his life is through lying, cheating, manipulating and killing. Nothing Hun has is good, but is a puppet of the VC and he said so himself. His game is being played by the VC and without the VC, Hun is in the deep shit. VC knew that Hun loves power and position and would do anything for the VC. For VC, its a good news, they got exactely what they were looking for, that is, to use Hun to sign away our land and sea in exchange for 'Somdech Anchko Sena tapa day Hun Sen' and love to be worshiped by people calling him 'Prea Ong Somdech Anchko' hahaha.

History has shown that he used all sort of evil tactics and tricks to hold onto power, e,g he has never been elected by people, he was being installed by VC and CH, for their own national interest and again, in exchange for his seat. In the end, he will be doomed, just like all of our predecessors who came before us, now gone and dead and part of our country like khmer Krom gone and koh tral and whole srok khmer will be gone too. VC and Chinese will have it all and the left over victims, will be their slaves now and forever and ever.

So, who is the smart ones here? Sam or Hun traitor?

This is part of HUN SEN tricks to kill and arrest the Opposition party member, if HUN SEN will stay on the power for anther 5 years, Cambodia will lost more land and sea to Vietnam and Vietnam send 5 more million Vietnamese to live in Cambodia. HUN SEN Is heavy protected by Vietnamese special force,, as far as Vietnam has not done their plan completely, Vietnam will not allow HUN SEN to step down from the power.

AH Chum Mey is too old to think straight who killed his wife and son! If the Khmer Rouge killed his wife and son and why don't he sue the Khmer Rouge? Now AH HUN SEN Vietcong slave is a former Khmer Rouge and why don't he sue AH HUN SEN? So AH Chum Mey would rather live mong his killers and then to live with those who are also a victim of the Khmer Rouge?

I have respect for old people who have wisdom! But AH Chum Mey as he get older and he get stupid and have no wisdom to pass on to the next generation! AH Chum Mey deserve to be curse a thousand times more for his stupidity and craziness!
