The Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR) has been conducting trial monitoring since 2009, to observe criminal trials in Cambodian courts and 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 part of a series of newsletters that analyze the findings of CCHR’s monitoring and discuss broader issues. The present newsletter focuses on the rights of juvenile defendants, in particular the right to privacy, the right to presumption of innocence and pre-trial detention.
