The Cambodian Center for Human Rights (“CCHR”) is gravely concerned that the new draft law on the Denial of Crimes Committed During Democratic Kampuchea (the “Denial Law”) called for by Prime Minister Hun Sen, if passed, will restrict freedom of expression through placing illegitimate limitations on public discussion, research, and education about the Khmer Rouge era, as well as attempting to legitimize the stifling of opposition voices.
