Cambodian authorities must immediately quash the convictions for insurrection handed down to eleven opposition party activists on 21 April, the ICJ said today. The Phnom Penh Municipal Court sentenced the National Rescue Party (CNRP) activists to between seven and 20 years in prison following an unfair trial. “These men were grossly over-charged with insurrection in the first place,” said Kingsley Abbott, ICJ International Legal Adviser. “The fact they have now been handed down disproportionately severe sentences following an unfair trial only serves to underscore that a serious miscarriage of justice has taken place in violation of Cambodia’s international obligations,” he added.
