Opposition lawyer Choung Chou-Ngy has, via a press conference at the Sam Rainsy Party (SRP) headquarter at 10 a.m this morning, confirmed that there was an attempt to arrest him yesterday morning, but due to good luck resulting from his good deeds he was able to evade the arrest.
Mr. Choung Chou-Ngy refused to elaborate on an attempt to arrest him by the authority due to pressures on his professional career. He said the police had set up three road blocks at Sala Lek Pram, at Kampong Chhnang and at Prek Kdam to arrest him while he was travelling to help victims of land grabbing in Kampong Chhnang province yesterday morning, but due to good luck he was able to evade the arrest.
He also said that he will shave his head off and enter the monkhood for one week to cleanse out all the bad luck and as a symbolic gesture to pray that the judges, prosecutors and the Justice Ministry will open their eyes to see the injustices that have been perpetrated against the people throughout the country. "From 4th to 10th January (2012) I will shave my head off and dress in white and meditate according to the Dharma in order to make the court, the judges and the prosecutors to provide justice to the people throughout the country", he said.
He added that he will sit and meditate in front of the Kandal Provincial Court, the Appeal Court, the High Court, the Justice Ministry and in front of the Bar Association.
Yesterday there were rumours milling around that Chou-Ngy was arrested and detained at the Kandal Provincial Court or at the Interior Ministry, but it turned out that he had evaded the arrest and took refuge at the SRP Headquarter.
According to the Free Press Magazine Online, which quoted senior SRP MP Mu Sochua, Mr. Choung Chou-Ngy had actually been arrested at 8:30 a.m yesterday morning, but was later released. She refused to elaborate further about his arrest and release, saying she wants Choung Chou-Ngy himself to elaborate on his arrest and eventual release at the press conference this morning, but Choung Chou-Ngy said very little about his arrest and release as he seem to be very scared.
