16 Cambodians have been sentenced by a Thai court in Sisaket province for illegally logging in Thai territories.

Mr. Sor Thavy, Deputy Governor of Preah Vihear province, confirmed to Deum Ampil on Wednesday (16th August ) afternoon that the 16 Cambodians were convicted by a Thai court, but did not elaborate what sorts of sentences were imposed on them.
