On Wednesday the 11th of June, 12 opposition MP's have sent a request through president of the National Assembly, Mr. Heng Samrin, to Mr. Dith Munty, president of the Council of Magistracy, to punish Mr. Chhay Kong, president of the First Court of Phnom Penh, because he has violated the law by issuing a warrant for the arrest of Mr. Dam Sith illegally.

A letter signed by 12 opposition MP's has detailed 4 errors committed by Investigating Judge Chhay Kong, including issuing a hasty arrest warrant on Sunday and Mr. Dam Sith's name was not even written on the arrest warrant.

Radio Free Asia was unable to obtain any comment from Mr. Dith Munty regarding the 12 MPs' request.
