“During Hun Sen’s leadership, of course there have been some mistakes, but those mistakes are not serious enough to be considered crimes against humanity(sic!) - Cheam Yeap
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has sought more details from a Cambodian rights group over a complaint lodged on “crimes against humanity” allegedly committed by Prime Minister Hun Sen’s government against its people, according to the group.

Sourn Sereyratha leader of the Khmer People Power Movement (KPPM), claimed the ICC had requested witness statements and more evidence to back the organization’s complaint submitted two months ago against Cambodian Government led by Prime Minister Hun Sen and the ruling Cambodian People’s Party (CPP).

“After submitting the complaint on June 22, which requested the court to investigate crimes against humanity committed by the Phnom Penh government, our lawyers are now working with the ICC prosecutor,” he told RFA’s Khmer service.

“The court has requested that we pass on additional evidence for further investigation.”
