Theary Seng Withdraws Her Civil Party Status, Denounces ECCC as "Irredeemable Political Farce"
On 25 September 2007, immediately after the arrest of Khmer Rouge Brother No. 2, Nuon Chea, for war crimes and crimes against humanity by the Extraordinary Chambers (ECCC), Ms. Theary C. Seng, who was orphaned and imprisoned by the Khmer Rouge, wrote up her own application, went personally into the Office of Co-Investigating Judges, and filed the first civil party application. She became the first civil party in international law.

She fought hard and won the right for a civil party to address the Chamber in person.
