geovalin Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Phnom Penh Municipal Court last week issued multiple arrest warrants against former opposition leader Sam Rainsy and seven other people charged with conspiracy to treason and incitement. In a statement issued by the court on Tuesday and obtained yesterday, Judge Koy Sao issued eight warrants for Mr Rainsy and the seven who fled overseas in the wake of the CNRP being dissolved in 2017. The seven are Eng Chhai Eang, Mu Sochua, Ou Chanrith, Ho Vann, Long Ry, Men Sothavrin and Tok Vanchan. All eight, including Mr Rainsy, were charged with conspiring and inciting to commit crimes in accordance with articles 453, 494 and 495 of the Criminal Code. Mr Rainsy, who is currently in exile in France, is facing a slew of charges, including incitement, over statements made criticising the government of Prime Minister Hun Sen. Judge Sao said in the court statement that the latest crimes allegedly took place both within and outside of the Kingdom in January. read more https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50587788/ex-cnrp-officials-charged-with-incitement/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
