TWO villagers due in Svay Rieng provincial court on Thursday for questioning in connection with the uprooting of demarcation poles along the Cambodia-Vietnam border have gone into hiding, a rights group official said Thursday.
Nget Nara, Svay Rieng coordinator for the rights group Adhoc, said the fugitives – Khon Chea, 31, and Prak Koeun, 38 – fled upon hearing that two other villagers, Meas Srey and Prom Chea, had been arrested immediately after appearing for questioning Wednesday.
A third villager scheduled for questioning Wednesday, Neang Phalla, escaped before his turn on the stand. His whereabouts remain unknown.
