One day after news alert on the arrest of Lawyer Choung Chou-ngy, the lawyer himself appeared at a press conference on Friday 30 December 2011. During the press conference, Choung Chou-ngy said that there was indeed a pursuit made to arrest him, but that it was not successful.
In a surprised press conference held the SRP headquarters in the morning on 30 December, the SRP lawyer who disappeared all day on Thursday, re-appeared there. However, it was a press conference where this lawyer did not say much at all.
When asked by reporters whether he was arrested or not, Choung Chou-ngy replied by saying that he could not talk about this problem due to professional pressure. He said very little during the press conference and allowed only a few questions from journalists attending. He apologised throughout the press conference for not able to say anything much about his arrest as it seemed that he has been warned not to say anything about it.
It was an answer that nobody understood. However Choung Chou-ngy confirmed that there was a pursuit made to arrest him at 3 locations: in Prek Kdam, Sala Lekh Pram and Kampong Chhnang. He said that he did not want to provide any details on this issue. However, in a protesting response to the pursuit to arrest him, Choung Chou-ngy announced that he will shave his head, don the white [religious] robe, and he will hold prayers in front of the Kandal provincial court, the Appeal court, the ministry of Justice and the Cambodian Bar Association.
Chan Soveth, an investigation official for the Adhoc human rights group, talked about Choung Chou-ngy’s demeanor: Choung Chou-ngy looked troubled and he was careful when he talked to reporters. Chan Soveth said that human rights organizations will continue to follow up in this case. Son Chhay, a senior SRP MP, said that because Choung Chou-Ngy appeared to be too scared to say anything about his arrest means that he is under some sort of pressures from unknown groups.
The RFI report said that he was indeed arrested on the morning of 29th December, but was released at night time when human rights, opposition and UN officials went searching for him, causing a stir in the capital Phnom Penh. A UN official said that he saw Choung Chou-Ngy at the Interior Ministry, a place where opposition and human rights officials suspected that he was being held.
In a lawsuit case involving a SRP activist that Choung Chou-ngy is defending, the Kandal provincial court suspects him of providing means for the SRP activist to flee from jail. On Thursday, Adhoc claimed that Choung Chou-ngy was arrested, however, the national police commission rejected this arrest information.

Scared scared, the minute the people rise up ain't scared of dying and have full loyalty and love for ones country then its the end of the CPP. But because the governments propaganda drive have such a psychological effect it's going to take awhile. The moment Khmer are willing to sacrifice themselves as a whole it's the moment this madness ends. I can only hope it ends. For to long, but to little. What khmer Cambodia needs is a man of the people, not just any man, but someone who can tell the difference, and as much many of us hates our neighbors, we need to be not discriminative, but that doesn't mean we allow them to treat us inhumanly. Cambodian peoples party should have change it's name, because I realized it's not for the benefit of our people, I thought the CPP can change it's ways. But I'm wrong indeed. Dissillusioned CPP Guy.
No one can live forever and therefore no one can rule. The end of the CPP dictatorship will come one day.
Believe or not, but the Cambodian Government (CPP or others Parties) has to deal not just with the Khmer people in the country but also with the oversea Khmer.
Contrary Thailand and Vietnam have only problem with the insider. They can concentrate on their work and did not have to deal with troublemaker.
