Former King Declines to Pardon Sam Rainsy
Former Cambodian King Norodom Sihanouk, according to a letter of the Prince Sisavat Thormikor, refused to pardon opposition party leader Sam Rainsy. Rainsy stands charged by Svay Rieng Provincial Court with pulling out border markers on October 25, 2009.
“The Former King, Norodom Sihanouk, refuse to intervene with Sam Rainsy’s allegation as he said that this case is political and he does not interfere in political issues,” SRP spokesman Kong Korm said.
The former King has been retired from politics story since October 6, 2004.
“The government led by Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen should solve this problem out of court system,” Kong Korm added. SRP lawmakers, along with commune councilors in Cambodia, gathered prints and signatures accompanied by the former King’s request letter to ensure Sam Rainsy’s freedom.
Sam Ranisy, who is currently overseas, said that he will not attend his trial on January 27, 2010. He will be tried in absentia.
