CLEC : The Unjust Arrest and Illegal Detention of 3 Lor PeangVillage Representatives

Dear all,

We, CLEC, condemn the violent dispersal of approximately 50 fellow villagers from Lor Peang community, who had begun their 70 km peaceful march from Kampong Chhnang province to Phnom Penh on 12 August 2014. Amid the violent dispersal, three villagers were arrested and sent to the first instance of Kampong Chhnang provincial court.

we request that the government ensure: 1) the safety of all land and human rights defenders advocating for collective and individual rights to lands and resources; 2) an immediate halt to all forms of intimidation and harassment of human rights defenders, including land rights advocates, journalists, and others calling for adherence to Cambodia’s international law and constitutional obligations. 

For more information, please contact:
