Publication : Press Release

Amnesty International expresses its deep disappointment at the decision by the Pre-Trial Chamber of the hybrid Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) to reject an appeal by a victim, Robert Hamill to be recognized as a civil party in Cases 003 and 004. The appeal was rejected by the Chamber’s three Cambodian Judges, and the absence of a 4-1 majority meant, under ECCC rules, that the appeal was rejected by default. The decision cannot be appealed further.
