Secret SRP recording to be probed by court

Mok Ra
18 June 2012
By Mu Sochua
This is another story of travesty of justice. Cambodia justice is justice for hire. This is a pure case of political persecution and as a revenge against a very principled local opposition member who refuses to sell his vote and he even won his case when SRP filed complaint against the CPP official who is a deputy secretary general at the Ministry of Interior.

I remember vividly when the Penal Code Bill was presented by the Ministry of Justice and how the Sam Rainsy Party MPs, pointed to the danger of keeping the article in the Code. We pointed out that this particular article is purely meant to prevent and discourage any type of recording or taking photographs of officials caught in a criminal act.

In this case, Mok Ra's only evidence to protect himself is to record the conversation he had with those who intended to buy his vote.

It should be pointed out that the courts are becoming active again during this post election period.

The courts have taken action against:
  1. an elected SRP commune official in Kandal with arrest;
  2. further questioning Mok ra;
  3. summon MP, Mu Sochua for her "rehabilitation" case.

The Battambang Provincial Court has summoned an opposition party council member to appear for questioning 10 days from now in connection with the secret and illegal recording of a Cambodian People’s Party official who was caught on tape offering hundreds of dollars in exchange for support in January’s Senate elections.
