The Cambodian government has filed a new lawsuit against leading opposition figure Sam Rainsy.
The government accuses Mr Rainsy of forging public documents and spreading false information about a border dispute with Vietnam.
Mr Rainsy, who is living in exile, was given a two-year jail term last month for a political protest in which markers along the border were uprooted.
He could face up to 18 years in prison if found guilty of the latest charges.
