Human Rights Now (HRN), a Tokyo-based international human rights NGO, expresses grave concern over the recent oppression of human rights defenders and political opposition in Cambodia. Four staff members of the Cambodian Human Rights and Development Association (ADHOC), and a deputy secretary-general of Cambodia’s National Election Committee (NEC), have been imprisoned under spurious charges of “bribing a witness.” A United Nations (UN) official has been charged as an accomplice to the crime.
