Despite continued recommendations in previous UPR cycles, an independent, impartial judiciary is still not a reality in Cambodia. The national framework does not, in practice, guarantee the independence of the judiciary; the executive hold excessive control over the judiciary with multiple high-level members of the judiciary also belonging to the ruling party. As a result, the judicial system is used as a tool to target political opponents, human rights defenders, trade unionists and journalists, whilst allegations of wrongdoing against public officials rarely lead to meaningful investigation or prosecution.
