Dancing The Lawsuit Dance…
The Law in Cambodia still is a questionable item in terms of credibility these days. But the dance has somehow to be danced… Sam Rainsy, Kem Sokha, opposition CNRP co-Presidents, and Rong Chhun, Leader of the Independent Teachers Association, were summonsed at the Phnom Penh Municipal Court this morning to be questioned about their possible incitement to violence during the past weeks workers demonstrations during which 4 or 5 people were killed by army bullets and many others savagely beaten up or beaten unconscious by soldiers. Over a thousand supporters for the three men stood outside the courtroom (together with a sneaky iPhone thief who ran away with at least two pieces). At the time I left, 11:30, the sympathisers were still waiting for the three leaders to come out of the building.
UPDATE: Kem Sokha and Sam Rainsy left the courthouse around 13:30
