Genocidal loopholes in Cambodia
By Stephen Kurczy

PHNOM PENH - The Khmer Rouge's alleged former chief executioner and
head of state will both appear in court this week in Cambodia. Yet
instead of reeling the radical Maoist regime's most senior leaders
closer to justice, the two-and-a-half-year-old United Nations
sponsored tribunal's final hearings for this year will showcase
defense stall tactics and set up one defendant to be the first, and
possibly the only, cadre convicted for the regime's crimes against
humanity.
