The Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR) has been conducting trial monitoring since 2009, to observe criminal trials in Cambodian courts and to assess their adherence to international and Cambodian fair trial standards. Since March 2013, CCHR’s Fair Trial Rights Project has been monitoring hearings in the Phnom Penh Court of Appeal. This newsletter is a 2018 series of quarterly newsletters that will analyse the findings of CCHR’s monitoring and discuss broader issues. The present newsletter focuses on issues faced by women in the Cambodian judicial system, and in particular on equality before the law, pre-trial detention and the prosecution of gender-based violence.
