Prime Minister Hun Sen yesterday urged the Women’s Affairs and Justice Ministries to explore the possibility of pardoning some female inmates outside of national holiday periods, noting that he will consider establishing a body, directly under his control, to assist impoverished women. He made the remarks during the National Council for Women’s annual meeting at the Peace Palace yesterday. Mr Hun Sen said both aforementioned ministries must review the cases of all female inmates in all prisons across the Kingdom, and problems they face.

“Female inmates are facing many family problems – some have children that they have to look after, while others were abandoned by their husbands,” he said, noting that it is time for tolerance and compassion. “It is so that some can be pardoned outside of the usual holiday period. This has to be done before the upcoming Khmer New Year so they have the freedom to go home.”
