Hun Sen's cousin freed after Hun Sen's interventions

Prime Minister Hun Sen's cousin has been exonerated of all charges of corruption and fraud after National Assembly chairman Heng Samrin and Justice Minister Ang Vong Vattana wrote separate letters to Prime Minister Hun Sen requesting for a pardon.

Mrs. Dy Prim, a cousin of Prime Minister Hun Sen on his mother's side, and Mr. Seng Yean, an official from the National Assembly's Inspection and Relations Committee, were accused of corruption and fraud after they took $200,000 (FPM mistyped as $20) from residents of Phnom Penh's Dangkor district in exchange for their assistance and intervention last year. The pair was charged by the court for corruption and fraud since last year, but the case had been shelved until it was intervened by Mr. Heng Samrin and Mr. Ang Vong Vattana recently to exonerate them of all charges.

Mrs. Mu Sochau (pictured), who has been calling for her parliamentary immunity to be re-instated after she was stripped off her immunity in a defamation lawsuit with Prime Minister Hun Sen, said Cambodia is a state of law and a democratic society, so the intervention of the judicial process by Mr. Heng Samrin and Mr. Ang Vong Vattana is a grave violation of the independence of the judiciary. "These kinds of people should not be retained in the justice system, and they must be removed from their positions. I very much regret that Mr. Ang Vong Vattana, who used to live in France, but have committed such acts which is a violation of the foundation of morality", she said.

She she said there is hypocrisy on the part of the Justice Ministry because the Minister of Justice (Ang Vong Vattana) has not intervened on her behalf to request for the reinstatement of her parliamentary immunity despite she had paid all the court fines since November 2010.

The strongman Hun Sen is only good at preaching, but we can see that he helped his cousin. So Hun Sen has committed corruption because he interfere with the judicial process, he ordered the court to release his cousin.
