The Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR) echoes the concerns of the United Nations (UN) about the stalled appointment of the new co-investigating judge at the Khmer Rouge Tribunal. Today, it was reported in the Phnom Penh Post (Delay in appointing judge worries UN) that the spokesman for UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon stated in an email that the UN is concerned that more that three months after the resignation of the International Co-investigating Judge Siegfried Blunk, the Supreme Council of Magistracy (SCM) has not appointed the Reserve International Co-investigating Judge, Laurent Kasper-Ansermet of Switzerland, to replace him.
