Cambodian court sentences opposition leaders in absentia
Posted on 2021-03-02 13:06:04
A Cambodian court has convicted and sentenced the exiled leader and eight
senior members of the country's banned opposition party to more than 20 years
in prison.

It effectively bars them from ever returning home.

The decision late yesterday was condemned by the head of the Cambodia
National Rescue Party, or CNRP, human rights organizations, and the U.S.
Embassy.

The trial was held in absentia, as all the party leaders are living abroad.

CNRP leader Sam Rainsy, who was sentenced to 25 years, said the court acted
at the behest of Prime Minister Hun Sen.

The other eight received sentences ranging from 20 to 22 years.
