| Original report from Phnom Penh 25 June 2008 |
Former Khmer Rouge president Khieu Samphan was returned to tribunal detention Tuesday, following his third visit to the hospital this week. 
Khieu Samphan sits in a Khmer Rouge tribunal hearing in April.
Tribunal observers said Wednesday they are still seeking information on Khieu Samphan's medical conditions, as worries mount that aging leaders will not see trial before they die.
However, a doctor at Phnom Penh's Calmette hospital, where all Khmer Rouge detainees are treated, told VOA Khmer Wednesday that disclosing the health conditions of Khieu Samphan would be a breach of medical ethics.
