Fair Trial Rights in Cambodia
The Constitution of the Kingdom of Cambodia entrusts the Judiciary with the responsibility of upholding impartiality and protecting the rights and freedoms of Khmer citizens. This includes a duty to ensure that every citizen who is accused of a crime receives a fair trial.

This Report sets out Cambodian and international law relating to the right to a fair trial. It presents data collected from the monitoring of 199 trials at Phnom Penh Capital Court and Kandal Court of First Instance between August 10 and December 31, 2009.
